Whether you love it or hate it, TikTok has become one of the most talked about apps of our generation. From extremely fast dances (Renegade, anyone?) to aesthetically pleasing montages, the amount of content produced every day on the app is insane. One corner of the app that we are loving are the skincare and beauty videos, all of which are filled with amazing product recommendations. Here are our favorite skincare, makeup, and hair tool picks!
The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution ($7.20):
While this red mask looks like something out of a horror movie, this amazing peel does wonders for your skin. Acting as a chemical exfoliant, The Ordinary’s 10-minute facial smooths your skin and rids of acne scars in just a few uses. Also, this solution is extremely inexpensive and is a great dupe for pricier products, such as Drunk Elephant's TLC Framboos Glycolic Night Serum ($90) and goop’s Exfoliating Instant Facial ($125). Make sure to follow up this treatment with a sunscreen to protect your skin!
Tan-Luxe Super Glow Hyaluronic Self-Tan Serum ($49.00):
This popular self-tan serum is the perfect way to get that natural golden glow without the sun damage. Formulated with hyaluronic acid and cocoa seed extract, the serum delivers hydration and acts as a shield to protect the skin from daily environmental pollutants. Just apply two to 12 drops to your face and décolleté daily to get a tanned glow!
ELF’s awesome (and super affordable) lip exfoliant is infused with shea butter, avocado, grape and jojoba oils, all leaving your lips feeling moisturized and plump. It’s a great way to rid your lips of dead skin and provides a smooth base for your lip products!
We are loving this drugstore primer! As the seasons are beginning to change and temperatures are rising, it’s essential to use a quality primer to keep your makeup in place. This inexpensive primer comes with a good amount of product and will last you through the summer months. Also, it’s an excellent dupe for Tatcha’s Silk Canvas Protective Primer ($52).
ELF 16HR Camo Concealer ($6.00):
Another ELF product that has been taking TikTok by storm is their 16HR Camo Concealer. Coming in a vast range of 23 shades, this product is a great dupe for the cult favorite Tarte Shape Tape Concealer ($23). It’s extremely pigmented and lightweight, perfect for everyday wear!
ULTA Juice Infused Lip Oil ($9.00):
This lip oil is made out of a super luxurious formula and comes in a variety of shades! Our favorites are “Red Apple” and “Tangerine.” Each formula is made out of different rejuvenating ingredients, each coming with individual lip mending properties.
Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Lip Plumper ($29.00):
While this cult-favorite lip injection gloss has been popular for years, many TikTok users have been pointing out the similarities between Too Faced’s product and its pricey counterpart, La Mer’s Lip Volumizer ($75). This plumping gloss comes in five shades and is perfect for layering over your favorite lip color!
Clinique iD Custom-Blend Hydrator Collection ($39.00):
Clinique’s newest product has been blowing up on TikTok lately for its ability to create a natural makeup look! The BB-gel acts as a moisturizer while simultaneously matching your skin tone, giving you a light coverage look with minimal effort. We recommend applying this product with a brush first so the product will match the tone of your face and not your hands!
Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer And Volumizer Hot Air Brush ($57.99):
Revlon’s mega-popular hair tool is a great way to give yourself an at-home blowout! The brush dries your hair super fast, as well as providing volume and shine. Some users are even saying it’s a great dupe for the similarly popular Dyson Airwrap ($549), yet at a fraction of the cost. We highly recommend purchasing this piece, as it is a great way to style your hair from home!
Right now is the perfect time to switch up your everyday makeup and skincare regimes and try new products! All of these products and tools definitely deserve the hype, and we can’t wait to incorporate them into our daily routines!
