36 TikTok-Approved Beauty Items That Will Impress You
Mabyelline's Lifter Glaze Oil Balm that's under $10 but is getting compared to $40 high-end brands. It combines all of the moisturizing benefits of a lip balm (hi, hyaluronic acid!!) with the glossy sheen and sheer color of a lip oil. Plus, if Krispy Kreme has taught us anything, it's that anything ~glazed~ is always worth trying.
Philips Norelco OneBlade Intimate razor, which is specifically designed for shaving ~downstairs~ with no nicks or cuts — and it's also perfect for sensitive armpits. The secret is the special blade cover that cuts close enough to achieve a smooth look without cutting all the way down to the skin. It's 100% waterproof, so you can use it freely in the shower and quickly rinse it when you're done. You'll never go back to disposable razors again!
Laneige's Neo Blurring Powder that'll instantly mattify you, keep oils at bay throughout the day, and provide a soft blurring effect that looks great on its own or over makeup! Especially if you have a foundation that's a bit too ~radiant~ for your liking — this will tone it down and stop you from looking shinier than a disco ball.
Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel — it's basically like a latte for your face. It uses the power of yerba mate to soothe the delicate skin under your eyes, and also contains three forms of hyaluronic acid to moisturize. I did not know there were several types of hyaluronic acid, but I would now like to collect all of them like Pokémon.
The Color Wow One-Minute Transformation cream that takes just 60 SECONDS to bring second-day hair back to life. Just work a small amount through dry hair, then brush it through with a flat brush to tame frizz and flyaways — or hit it with a blow dryer for a super glossy ~fresh from the salon~ shine. Oh, and you'll also be treating your strands to some moisturizing avocado oil while you're at it.
A bottle of Choco Musk perfume, which has gone wildly viral for smelling like chocolate-vanilla heaven — AND IT'S UNDER $10!! Reviewers say it's perfect if you love vanilla-heavy bakery scents and that it lasts quite a while. Just be prepared to get nonstop compliments and constant questions of, "Who's baking cookies?!"
And pair it with Eos' Shea Butter Vanilla Cashmere body lotion that gives brands like Bath and Body Works and Philosophy a run for their money. Not only does it smell like a caramel-vanilla dream, but it also includes shea butter and shea oil for a light touch of moisture that won't take 3,000 years to absorb.
A bottle of CND Essentials nail and cuticle oil to have your hands looking as shiny and flawless as they do when you leave the salon, except without the outrageous salon prices. The blend of jojoba and sweet almond oil provides hydration and softness, while the vitamin E and rice bran oil can add a healthy-looking shine. A "how it started vs. how it's going" TikTok is certainly in order.
And Londontown's "Nail Veil" Protectant that's basically an instant manicure in a bottle. Just one coat will give your nails a healthy glow and super sheer tint of color. If nail polish is essentially "foundation" for your nails, think of this as a subtle skin tint! It'll mask any imperfections and discoloration in your nails, and because it's so sheer, it's super forgiving. Plus, no base coat or top coat required!
A luxuriously silky Saltair body oil made with kukui, moringa, and squalane oils to hydrate without leaving behind a greasy feeling. It's meant to be applied on still-damp skin after a bath or shower — the fast-absorbing formula will help lock in all that moisture! It comes in four scents, but Santal Bloom is going viral for smelling like creamy sandalwood goodness.
Olay Super Serum Body Wash — no I didn't make a typo, this is actually a serum AND body wash in one! It's packed with niacinamide, shea butter, and collagen peptides to hydrate your skin while you get your lather on. We love a shower multitasker!
A Denman Hair Brush with a genius multifunctional design. The bristles are perfectly spaced to help detangle and shape curls at the same time, so it's basically a must for anyone who prefers beauty sleep (and wasting time scrolling through endless TikToks) to beauty routines.
Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream — the tube may seem unassuming, but this magic formula contains salicylic acid to gently exfoliate dead skin cells, while glycerin and aloe add some extra hydration. Put that Groupon for a laser treatment down — try this first!
Kahi Wrinkle Bounce Hydrating Multi-Balm, which is basically a magic wand for your entire face and neck. The "Wrinkle Bounce" formula is especially loved by reviewers since it helps smooth fine lines and provides a glowy glass-skin look thanks to the salmon complex and collagen. The stick applicator also makes it ideal for targeting specific areas like under-eyes and eyelids. Happy swiping!
A beautifully packaged, travel-friendly Touchland Power Mist hydrating hand sanitizer that looks so chic you'll be tempted to plan your entire outfit around it. "Does anyone have any hand sanitizer?" one of your woefully unprepared friends asks. "Oh, I do" you nonchalantly say as you casually blow their mind with the most ~aesthetic~ hand sani they've ever seen. Once they realize it's hydrating and smells delightful, you might not get it back.
A hair serum from Korean hair care brand Mise En Scéne made with SEVEN nourishing oils: argan, coconut, jojoba, marula, olive, camelia, and apricot. They all work together to protect your strands from damage (including up to 446-degree heat protection!) while adding some hydration and shine. One reviewer even said the results are comparable to Crown Affair's $40 hair oil!
An octopus-shaped Tonymoly blackhead remover that's super viral for its jaw-dropping results. Just scrub it over your nose to let the cellulose beads and dead sea salt wipe away any dirt and oil that's accumulated at the surface.
A popular foot exfoliant with results that are equal parts disgusting and oh-so-satisfying. Within one to two weeks, the dead skin on your feet will literally start to peel off (gross!) and reveal the supremely soft skin that was hiding underneath. (Satisfying!)
Skala's Mais Cacho Hair 2-in-1 Conditioning Treatment that's truly a multitasking marvel. You can use it as an in-shower conditioner by applying it to clean hair and rinsing out after three minutes, or you can apply it as a leave-in treatment for all-day moisture that won't weigh your curls down.
A pack of multipurpose dermaplaning razors you can use to shape your eyebrows and remove fine hairs. You can also use them to remove any stubborn peach fuzz so your foundation will effortlessly glide on.
A bottle of sulfate-free biotin shampoo that 34,000+ reviewers swear by. Biotin can help provide a fuller appearance to your strands, while rosemary and coconut oil are known to nourish and moisturize the scalp.
Kiss PowerFlex Maximum Speed Nail Glue, which will keep your press-ons and glue-ons so securely in place, you'll forget they're not actually your real nails. One application lasts for up to a week, so you can furiously type those "just circling back" e-mails with basically zero risk of ruining your at-home mani.
A bottle of Elizavecca Hair Treatment with an impressive ingredients list for such a low price. Its blend of ceramides and collagen can help add smoothness and shine to your hair in just five minutes, making it perfect for those of us who care about our hair but not enough to devote extra time to it.
A pack of cult-favorite Clean Skin Club Clean Towels so you can stop drying your face with your normal hand towel that may be harboring bacteria that can cause irritation and breakouts. These are loved for feeling super soft and sturdy, and many people use them in combination with a makeup remover to create their own gentle face wipes. They're also perfect for removing stubborn masks and cleaning your makeup tools!
An exfoliating glove with immediate results you can actually see — seriously, the dead skin just clumps up and rolls right off of your body. It's somehow satisfying and gross at the same time.
Thank Me Later Eyeshadow Base that'll make the shades from your favorite palettes last all day long. The smoothing texture prevents your eyeshadow from settling into fine lines and wrinkles, and the matte formula keeps excess oil at bay.
An extra-long body scrubber so you can finally give your back the deep exfoliation it deserves. It has helpful handles on each side to make it easy to buff away dead skin in those hard-to-reach places. Reviewers say it's perfect for preparing your skin for self-tanner, and you can also use it on legs, arms, or anywhere else in need of a good scrub-down.
Bio-Collagen's Real Deep sheet mask that works overnight to refresh your skin. No, really, it's designed to be worn while you sleep — it's transfer-resistant, so it won't leave a mess on your pillow! It's infused with hyaluronic acid to hydrate, collagen to maximize absorption and minimize the appearance of pores, and probiotics to strengthen the skin's barrier. Best of all, it turns transparent when your skin is done absorbing the serum, so you'll know when it's ready to take off.
A K-18 leave-in mask to help bring overprocessed and color-damaged hair back to life. Unlike other repairing treatments like Olaplex, this one doesn't need to be rinsed out: Just smooth this through your clean, towel-dried hair (but skip the conditioner!) wait four minutes, and then style as usual.
A cruelty-free E.l.f tubing mascara that's basically lash extensions in a tube. The formula wraps your lashes with lengthening tubes for a fuller appearance, which also makes it SO easy to remove at the end of the day (no more endless scrubbing with micellar water!!!).
Mane Club One Hit Wonder, a 10-in-1 spray for all hair types that conditions, detangles, provides heat protection up to 445 degrees F/230 degrees C, prevents breakage, hydrates, smooths, softens, controls frizz, strengthens, and boosts shine. The cannabis sativa seed oil will help add some extra luster, while glycerin pulls in moisture from the air to help reduce frizz!
A nifty gadget that can turn a pea-sized amount of your favorite liquid facial cleanser into a cloud-like mound of fluffy foam that is much easier to spread and feels amazing on sensitive skin. Reviewers say it also helps their cleanser last much longer since it only requires a small amount!
A root touchup powder so you can temporarily conceal your roots in between salon appointments. Just use the attached sponge to pick up some powder and rub it directly on any grays, or use it on your hairline to create a fuller appearance. It'll become one of your new beauty lifesavers — just ask the 16,000+ reviewers who left a perfect 5-star rating.
The Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener that'll add a glowy, blurred look to your dark circles. Reviewers say it blends seamlessly into the skin and adds sheer-to-light coverage, so you can quickly tap it in on your way out the door.
And Maybelline's Dark Circles Treatment Concealer you can layer on top. The lightweight formula is infused with haloxyl, a peptide complex that's meant to reduce dark circles and tighten skin. So basically, it's perfect for when you need to fool everyone into thinking you got a full night's sleep, when in reality you were up watching what ever new mini series Nicole Kidman is starring in this week.
A benzene-free, travel-friendly applicator of I Dew Care's dry shampoo powder to quickly mop up the oils that are absolutely ruining your Sunday brunch 'do. This one has a powder-puff applicator so you can apply it directly to your roots (you know, the source of all your oily troubles), and it also adds some extra volume as you brush it through. Reviewers say it instantly absorbs oil and doesn't leave a white residue behind. It's so easy to use that you'll wonder how you ever dealt with those messy spray cans.
