And now it's selling a beauty pack you won't want to forget in your hand luggage.
It's already brought out Sol De Janeiro dupes in the past including a range of body mists and bath products.
But now Primark has upped the stakes with its new travel-friendly buy.
For just £6 you can now get a lip balm, moisturiser and body mist to rival the designer brand.
The Santorini Sunset travel bag costs just £6 making it way cheaper to the Sol De Janeiro option which retails for £30.
The travel essentials come in a gorgeous almond and caramel scent much like the luxe brand's classic Chirosa collection.
Primark's original line-up of Sol de Janeiro dupes was released in April last year and consisted of three holiday-esque fragrances.
Then in January this year, fast fashion bosses added five more scents - including the Santorini Sunsets.
Among the others are Capri Coast, Bali Blush, Rio Romance and Fiji Fiesta, and they all come in similar bottles to the £24 Sol de Janeiro viral Perfume Mists.
The travel set comes in an orange travel bag to match and is under the 100ml limit for hand luggage making it perfect for any vacations this year.
Why Sol de Janeiro's Bum Bum Cream is a cult favourite among beauty lovers
Holiday Must-haves
Primark has gone viral this year for its selection of cheap hand luggage.
TikTok user Pia Blossom decided to put it's new carry on suitcase to the test and see how much the popular tiny bag can hold - while being within the regulations.
It measures 40x20x25cm, when its wheels are removed, meaning it's fully compliant with Ryanair's underseat baggage dimensions (40x20x25cm)
It's also ideal for EasyJet customers, with their under-seat cabin bag's maximum dimensions being 45x36x20cm, including handles and wheels.
Primark's history
PRIMARK first opened in 1969 as Pennies in Dublin, hoping to provide affordable fashion in Ireland.
A Primark store officially opened as Primark in 1974 in Derby.
The retailer now has 193 stores across the UK and 441 stores worldwide with a goal of running 530 stores by the end of 2026.
The airline claims this size allows you to 'bring all the essentials for a short trip' - but Pia decided to see if this was true for her.
'Shall we see how much we can fit in it?" she asked viewers.
Getting to work, Pia managed to add a 'couple of dresses, a couple of jackets, cardigan, underwear, spare bra and [two pairs of] summery shoes.'
'I almost forgot pyjamas, but we got them in there, too.
'This is closing much easier than I thought it would, which feels like a challenge to put more in.
'I am so impressed with that.'

Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan share parenting flight tip after 'scary' warning
Mark Wright recently returned from a family holiday to Spain where he went with his wife, Michelle Keegan, and baby daughter, Palma, who had her first experience of an aeroplane Mark Wright shared a parenting flight hack he and his wife Michelle Keegan executed after being warned about how 'scary' flying with an infant could be. The celebrity couple became parents in March and in recent days they took baby girl Palma on her first ever family holiday abroad. And despite being anxious, travelling with the tot went smoothly. The Only Way is Essex star Mark, 38, returned from his trip to Spain for his Heart FM radio show with Olly Murs. And opening up about his sunny voyage, he said: 'I've just got back from Spain. It was lovely, bit of tapas. Palma's first holiday, she was fantastic.' He described the break with his loved ones as 'amazing' and explained how he and actress Michelle, 38, navigated the plane journey. He said earlier this morning: 'We come up with a great plan on the flight because you warned me about how scary it could be with a new kid on a flight. 'We just made sure we fed her on the way up for the take off, two-and-a-half hour flight, fed her on the way down, she slept during the middle, it was beautiful.' Olly replied: 'Mate, that is exactly that plan we tried to do for Miami but we realised the flight is ten hours!' Mark, laughing, responded: 'It didn't work.' Olly was in Miami where he spent time writing more songs and he described having a 'mad four or five weeks' where 'so much has been happening to me'. He also spoke about having to pull the plug on a Glasgow gig during the show after his voice started to give way. Referencing the unfortunate moment from last month, he said on his radio show: 'Obviously I got ill in Glasgow and had to cancel some shows which still really hurts me to say because I'm not that type of artist.' Michelle meanwhile, who has 7.5 million followers on Instagram, shared pictures of the family holiday to the Sotogrande Spa & Golf Resort Hotel. Writing a post, she said: 'Princess P's first family holiday.' Another wrote: 'Love the fact she didn't have a baby until 37. Now she can enjoy it. She didn't feel pressured and I'm glad you have shown there is no rush.' A third added: 'The first holiday is always full of such fond memories, and is also the most anxiety provoking. Looks like you smashed it.' Mark also shared a video from the trip showing how he surprised his nephews at the resort, saying: 'I arrived at the resort a day earlier than my nephews, who never knew I was going to be on the same holiday…. When they saw me, they were buzzing.'

One of the UK's best campsites has safari lodges, pet pigs and secret waterfalls
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THERE are thousands of campsites in the UK, but Top of the Woods in Pembrokeshire has been named one of the best. The site in Wales took the top spot when Time Out put together a list of the best campsites in the country. 5 Top Of The Woods is found in the Pembrokeshire countryside Credit: Instagram/topofthewoods 5 The on-site barn is used for picnicking and there's also a cinema Credit: Instagram/topofthewoods Top of the Woods is described as a "nature retreat across 27 acres nestled by the stunning Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, surrounded by 325 acres of ancient & conifer Welsh woodlands, waterfalls, and close to wild beaches." The campsite inspires campers to get back to nature with eco-friendly accommodation. On offer are Safari Lodges, Nature Domes, or unique Pioneer Camps. Each of the glamping options includes self-catering amenities, cosy wood burners, BBQ and fire pits which are perfect for sitting by during the sunset. It's not just a camp site - there's also lots of activities like the 'Vintage Barn Cinema'. The Banquet Barn has been transformed into a barn cinema, with straw bale seating. It shows classic, family favourite films as well as the occasional more grown-up films every Saturday and Wednesday at 6pm and 8pm - which is entirely free for guests. There's also summer yoga classes so guests can start off their camping holidays calmly and well-stretched. Across the site there is table tennis, basketball, badminton, and a games meadow for the kids run around and play some football. There are also board games that can be taken away and played by campers throughout the day. The beachfront Croatian campsite set fo multi-million revamp 5 There's a resident pig family at the campsite Credit: Instagram/topofthewoods 5 Each accommodation type is self-catered Credit: Instagram/topofthewoods For anyone wanting to venture outside of the campsite, there's also a guide to a secret waterfall trail - which is a five mile round-trip. There's lots of wildlife around the campsite from owls to to woodpeckers and bats. But the campsite owners also have a family of pigs, two dogs and a Norwegian cat - all of whom like a bit of fuss according to the website. It's not just for family holidays either, the campsite also offers retreats for workplaces. It says "mix and match our indoor and outdoor spaces for work, presentations, networking, feasting, wellbeing activities and socials. "Digitally detox round the campfire - while benefiting from fast wifi in the work areas." The cheapest stay is if you bring your own tent and pitch it in the meadows which per adult is £16 per night. There's also a jumbo pitch option which can accommodate two tents for £15 per night. Here are the UK's best campsites that have 10/10 reviews. And the tiny campsite on the edge of a National Park named the best value in the UK. Here Are The Top 18 Campsites According To Time Out Top Of The Woods, Pembrokeshire Fidden Farm, Isle of Mull Woodfire, Sussex Harry's, Hampshire Wytch Wood Camping, Somerset Ten Acres Vineyard Camping, Devon The Pig Place, Oxfordshire Low Wray Campsite Castle Knights, Monmouthshire Trevedra Farm, Cornwall Hooks House Farm, North Yorkshire Cornish Tipi Holidays, Cornwall Hidden Valley Camping, Worcestershire Ashbourne Woods, Devon Holden Farm, Hampshire Kilvrecht Campsite, Highland Perthshire Hillend Caravan and Camping Park, Glamorgan Beryl's Campsite, Devon

In the insane world of budget airlines better pack your canoe
You pay extra for anything other than the smallest item of baggage (Picture: Adobe) There is a joke currently doing the rounds, which you may well have already heard. I've had it told to me by several friends, and have also seen it on Facebook. Sign up to our daily newsletter Sign up Thank you for signing up! Did you know with a Digital Subscription to Edinburgh News, you can get unlimited access to the website including our premium content, as well as benefiting from fewer ads, loyalty rewards and much more. Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... In the story, RyanAir boss Michael O'Leary notices a sign in a pub window reading 'Happy hour, Guinness £3 a pint'. O'Leary goes to the bar and orders his drink. The bartender asks if he wants a glass, O'Leary says he does and the barman replies 'That will be an extra £2.50'. The customer grudgingly pays up and is about to rest his pint on the counter, when he is told 'Ah, sir, if you're wanting to use the bar, that's an extra pound.' O'Leary angrily walks away from the bar and goes to sit at a table to be told 'Now, sir, if you want to take a seat that will cost an extra £3.50.' Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'This is outrageous. How can you expect to get away with this?' moans O'Leary, to which the barman replies 'Well, we are the only pub in town selling Guinness at £3 a pint'. OK, a fairly predictable joke, but it's funny because it's true. As I discovered when I checked in for my flight home from the Brighton Fringe. I travelled down by train, a much longer journey than by air but environmentally more responsible. And also with less restrictions on the amount of luggage I could carry, so I took two bags, both of which were fully packed. I flew back from Gatwick on Monday on EasyJet. I had booked a basic ticket which allowed me to carry on one small cabin bag, which had to fit under the seat in front. If I also wanted to take a larger cabin bag to go in the overhead locker, it was going to cost an extra £43.48, which was nearly as much as the original ticket. There's a lengthy price list for bulky items too. For example, it only costs fifty quid to take a canoe on the plane. That's utter madness. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad All 'budget airlines' such as RyanAir operate broadly similar policies. You pay extra for anything other than the smallest item of baggage, then there is an additional charge if you want to choose which seat you sit in. If you're daft enough, you can even order a meal voucher. Presumably the people purchasing this have never had a look through the EasyJet in-flight menu. Anyway, when I came to pack for my flight, there was no way all my stuff would fit in a bag under the seat. The suit I was wearing on stage all week was one I had bought at Primark several years previously for around fifty quid. I know, I shop at EasyJet and Primark. That's how well comedy pays. The suit served its purpose, as it looked OK from a distance and under stage lighting. Up close, you could easily tell it was an extremely cheap piece of tailoring. To take it back to Edinburgh was going to cost roughly the same as the value of the garment. I donated it to a charity shop. In what insane world is it cheaper to buy a suit than to take it home on a plane? Next time I fly, I'm packing everything into a canoe.
