Three years ago there was only a handful of people who actively used TikTok, let alone knew what it was. But fast-forward to today and more of us are spending time on the video sharing app than ever before.

It’s got everything from viral dances, scandals (like #couchguy, IYKYK) and intel on the best cleaning and beauty hacks.

As a dedicated TikTok researcher (aka, someone who spends way too much time scrolling on the app), I’ve compiled a list of the best products you can buy that have gone viral so far this year.

You’ll be hard pressed to go on TikTok and not see a before and after transformation after using The Pink Stuff — the hashtag #thepinkstuff has got a whopping 404 million views on the video sharing app.

Videos show it being used to clean anything from toilets, ovens, dirty pots and pans to even white sneakers.

“This stuff is awesome,” one person commented.

“The pink stuff literally saved my bathroom,” another said.

“This s**t is like MAGIC, TikTok does it again,” another shared.

Billing itself as a “miracle cleaning paste”, this cream cleanser is gentle while working hard to remove dirt and stain build up on anything from glass, barbecues, sinks and more.

“The reviews are legit, I have arthritis and have been struggling to clean my glass shower screen door for months and have been trying every product I can with little to no success,” one five star review reads.

“ONE PASS OVER WITH THIS AND IT WAS SPARKLING! Not only did it clean to the point of crystal clarity, I actually felt a little self conscious showering because I felt so exposed!!! I will be repurchasing this forever.”

OK, so in the grand scheme of things this would definitely be classified as a first world problem. With that caveat in place though, can we please acknowledge just how annoying it is to have water trickle down your arms while washing your face?

TikTok certainly noticed and in early 2021, multiple users started sharing their “hack” of wearing bulky scrunchies on their wrists to catch water while washing their faces.

“Uhh this is genius,” one person said of the hack, while another commented it was “so clever”.

Before long multiple companies began selling wrist washbasin scrunchies that are specifically designed for washing your face, with the item soon becoming an “Amazon must have”.

“So soft and dries so fast,” said @kriziaoffical in one video reviewing them. “No more icky wet arms.”

FROG SAC Spa Headband for Washing Face and Matching Wristbands, Amazon Australia, $12.59

Designed for teens (and grown-ups who appreciate this rainbow design), this pack includes a fluffy high pile tie-dye material headband and matching wrist bands.

“Game changed for the dreaded cleansing step!” says one five star review. “They are pretty fluffy and absorb a good amount of water. I typically make a big wet mess but not anymore not since I’ve had these babies.”

While effective at preventing water from dripping down your wrists some users have complained the wristbands can feel a little tight if you’re an adult using them.

This pack of 12 is great value, containing four different coloured headbands and matching wristbands made from microfibre.

“These are excellent! I hate when water flows down my arms when washing my hands, so these are wonderful for me,” one five star review reads.

LEVITATING LIGHT BULB AND MOON LAMPS

At first glance this viral video by @heartdefensor had many convinced it was a fake but yes, you can really buy a levitating light bulb lamp.

The TikTok user’s video has racked up more than 27 million views and 23,000 comments.

“How is this even possible?” one viewer asked, while another said: “I’m trying to figure out how this works.

While it looks like magic, the levitating light bulb lamp works by using a magnetic pull to hover and spin the light bulb, which is powered through the air via induction when on.

You can also buy a moon version that’s just as popular and gives off serious Harry Potter vibes.

Move over hyaluronic acid, there’s a new serum on the block that’s been making waves on TikTok. The Inkey List’s Polyglutamic Acid Serum costs just $25 at Sephora Australia and is four times more hydrating than hyaluronic acid.

Users on TikTok rave about just how good it is at hydrating skin, however, its most popular use has to be mixing it in with foundation for a more glowy natural look.

To use, simply add two pumps of Polyglutamic Acid to your foundation and mix together before apply to your face with a damp sponge.

TikTok user @skinfiltrator said her foundation “came out flawless” and “felt like butter” when she tried this hack.
