Check out the Essence Lash Princess mascara on TikTok!

Promising review: "I’m a teacher and since the pandemic hit, I no longer wear makeup to school. Makeup irritates my skin with my mask so I just haven’t been wearing anything plus it makes morning time hella easy. #bareface I only put on the mascara, literally no other makeup on my face. Just my lashes were done with this $5 magic. I kid you not — my lashes were literally ALL I heard about that day. Upon walking into the building, a teacher friend from all the way at the other end of the hall and was like 'oh she got makeup on today!!!!' Each kid that came up to me commented on the lashes. And the best story of all: A teammate of mine was out and the sub was having trouble with the announcements and so I went in to help her. Her homeroom just went bananas about my lashes and then they started clapping and I got a standing ovation. A literal standing ovation. Best $5 I’ve ever spent LOL!" —Katie

Promising review: "I kept seeing this product pop up on TikTok so I decided to buy a pack and I'm SO GLAD I DID! These smell so good and are a perfect way to relax while in the shower. I now recommend them to everyone I know!" —Merry

All the parts are dishwasher-safe!

Promising reviews: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But when I saw a TikTok about it I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best tasting fruit ice cream ever. It’s easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." —DMCKAY

Get it from Amazon for $38.91+ (available in six colors).

Promising review: "I bought these because I saw them advertised on TikTok and I am very pleased with the results. Previously, I have only ever used Crest whitening strips, which work, but are much more of a hassle than these whitening pens. Also, the pens are way cheaper than the Crest strips but still get the job done. I will be buying more of these in the future!" —Andrea

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $18.95.

Promising review: "Best decision! These are the greatest headphones ever! I saw them on TikTok months ago and added them to my wishlist. I got a new phone that doesn't have the headphone port so I decided it was time to finally buy them. They are amazing and I probably won't ever take them out of my ears! 😂" —Kate Arnold

Get it from Amazon $23.99+ (available in five colors).

Check out the flower hair clips on TikTok!

Promising review: "These are so different, and I get a lot of compliments. People keep asking me where I got them. I use it wherever and it holds my thick hair with no problem." —Bellap

Get a set of six from Amazon for $9.97+ (available in five color combinations).

Promising review: "AMAZING. I bought these to test against my Lululemon leggings ($100+) and I think I love these more. I wish there were more sizes in stock right now but it's a fad on TikTok so I understand and will be patient to buy more 😇." —Reina

Get them from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XL, two inseam lengths, and 34 patterns).

Check out the mushroom night-light on TikTok!

Promising review: "I LOVE this night-light. It's in my bathroom and is a lovely addition. It turns off the second the lights go on, which is nice because I don't have to worry about accidentally leaving it on. Super cute and the little itty-bitty lighting element does a good job lighting, just enough so I don't have to turn the main lights on in the middle of the night." —1Thand

Get it from Amazon for $5.98.

Promising review: "I caved to the TikTok hype and now I am obsessed, lol! I have extremely sensitive skin but this was the first product that I didn’t have to go through a 'getting used to' phase." —Shelby

Get it from Amazon for $17.38.

Check out the Fullstar veggie chopper on TikTok! Fullstar is a small biz that specializes in super useful kitchen gadgets!

I LIKE cooking — in fact, I love it. You know what I don't like? Trying to prep all my ingredients when cutting onions hurts my eyes and my kitchen surface space is practically non-existent. This veggie chopper is a game changer, even my mom asked for one as a Mother's Day gift this year. Just be careful with the blades because the first time I used it, I underestimated how sharp the blades really are and well...let's just say, I was thisssss 🤏 close to having to go to the ER and get stitches. Yeah, not fun.

Promising review: "Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container." —Amazon Customer

Price: $32.99 (available in three colors)

Promising review: "What can I say, I saw a TikTok about this lipstick and for $10 had to try it! The reviews are right, for some reason this lipstick is better than even $20 name brand ones bought from Ulta. Not only does it smell great, but dries in under a minute and survived eating a cupcake, a Starbucks drink, and an entire evening out, no smudging and had to be removed with a makeup wipe. Fantastic product!!" —Claire

Check out the CND cuticle oil on TikTok!

Promising review: "OMG this is the real deal. I applied it to my nails and cuticles. It worked and now my awful cuticles are gone. Before they looked dry and no matter what I did, lotion several times a day, it didn’t work. But with one application of this oil and my nails look so fresh, clean, and not flaky at all!! Love!!" —W. Mills

Get it from Amazon for $8.50.

Promising reviews: "I stumbled upon these from watching a TikTok and I’m so glad I did! Definitely look into how to use them before you start so you do it efficiently and find what works best for you. I use them after being in a hot shower for at least five minutes then I start with long strokes in one direction. These got lots of gunk off my body and left my skin feeling so soft and smooth!" —Mariah C.

Get a pack of eight from Amazon for $6.20.

Check out the Crayola Globbles on TikTok!

Promising review: "My 15-year-old asked for these after seeing them on TikTok. I got them as a stocking stuffer thinking they’d be tossed aside. Unbelievably he and his 17-year-old brother have spent time laying in the floor, tossing them up to the ceiling, and waiting for them to fall so they can catch them. I never expected them to get this much use. Bonus is they’re off their phones and in the family room with us." —Amazon Customer

Get a set of six from Amazon for $11.97.

Check out the Poreless Putty Primer on TikTok!

Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and thought I'd take a chance. I have sensitive skin and have to watch what I use. I LOVE this product! Goes on smooth and you don't need to use a lot. I put it on before I put on my foundation. Makes a huge difference. Highly recommend and will buy again!!" —Brooks Crim

Get it from Amazon for $9.

Worky is a small business that sells an awesome array of products perfect for those who WFH.

Check out the Worky station on TikTok!

Promising review: "I've had my Worky for three months now and have loved it. I love that everything is in one place and then I can close it up and work disappears. The compartments are great for tucking away piles of paperwork, the multiple charging outlets are convenient, and the LED lights are helpful on Zoom calls when lighting in the room are not ideal. Everything in one place, simple and convenient. Just the way I like it." —kade bench

Get it from Amazon for $109.99.

If a light shade of pink is all you're going for then just a simple application will do. If you'd like a bolder pink, then you can layer this stuff on as much (or as little) as your heart desires!

Check out the Glimmer Glow lipstick on TikTok!

Promising review: "This is such a pretty pH color lipstick, viral for a reason — it's very pretty to look at, it's not sticky at all, and the more you layer it, the darker the pink shows up. The only thing I don't like is the scent in it, I can almost taste it a bit. It's nice to have in my purse if I need a quick color while I'm out in case of sudden dinner plans or a meeting, because you can control the color saturation to how light or bold it is." —Kristina Brumbelow

Get it from Amazon for $3.99.

Promising review: "How did I go so long without one of these??? The Saucemoto was my first 'TikTok Made Me Buy It' purchase and I have no regrets. It clips easily to my car's vent and the sauce cups clip in easily so I can dip and drive. No more trying not to dump the sauce by accident while steering with the same hand that's holding the dip cup. It even comes with a dip cup for those places that do the pouches for their sauces rather than the cups. (I'm looking at you, Arby's.) Ya know, you end up squeezing the sauce onto the wrapper that's balanced on your lap and you end up getting some sauce on your steering wheel. OR you try the whole 'wrapper and sauce on the passenger seat and try to dip while watching the road,' which usually doesn't turn out so great." —Pleasure Pamela

Get set of two from Amazon for $10.90 (available in three colors).

Each set comes with a curling rod, two hair scrunchies, a claw hair clip, and two duckbill hair clips to set it in place. These are designed to work with all hair types, but work best if you roll them with damp hair!

Promising review: "Before purchasing, I’d seen a lot of reviews and tutorials on TikTok showing the results. My hair is thick, coarse, and naturally wavy, so I figured this might be a good alternative to rollers that are time-consuming to put in, difficult to sleep in, and ultimately not worth it. And MAN was I right to be hopeful. Wrap pieces of damp hair around it before bed, the tighter the wrap, the tighter the curl. Easy to sleep in since there’s nothing on the back of your head, and my curls are BOUNCY the next morning. My only complaint is that it doesn’t help give any top-volume, but nothing some teasing can’t fix. 10/10. I’ll never go back to a curling iron." —Mariah

Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in six colors).

Vetreska sells super cute pet products!

Check out the pet carrier on TikTok!

Promising review: "I got these for my cats. They are inside boys and when I use the harness in the fenced backyard they tend to eat grass. My ginger is a rotund 19 pounds but this contraption fits his extra large bod with room for him to turn around and check out the ladies." —angjas97

Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in four styles).

Check out the Dash mini waffle maker on TikTok!

Promising review: "I’ve NEVER wanted a waffle maker. This has changed my life. I always buy the frozen waffles and put them in the toaster oven and was Happy with this. Then I randomly bought this and it is amazing!!!!!! The waffles are the same size as the frozen waffles and easy to make with a mix. It heats quickly, cooks evenly, and is easy to wipe down. Plus it’s tiny so it stores well. Quick tip: spray it down with Pam or something similar just in case. Also, BUY IT!" —rooks1101

Get it from Amazon for $11.62+ (available in 20 designs).

Check out the diffuser on TikTok! If you're looking for some essential oils to use with your new diffuser, try this pack of six from Amazon.

According to Johns Hopkins, it's recommended to avoid diffusing oils near young children and large groups due to side effects from different oils.

Promising reviews: "It’s beautiful!! Best oil diffuser I’ve ever had. Everyone is asking me where I got it at. Gives off a lot of mist, makes my whole room smell wonderful, and it’s a great conversation piece. Highly recommend it." —Danielle Martinez

Get it from Amazon for $33.57+ (available in two sizes, with or without a remote, and 19 colors).

Check out the bedside shelf on TikTok!

BedShelfie is a POC-owned small biz based in LA that sells bedside solutions!

Check out the Youthforia BYO Blush on TikTok!

Promising review: "Dewy and glowy. I tried it over makeup and it appeared as a strong pink shade but settled to a flushed, glowy color. I had my little sister try it too because I wanted to see the color change again and it lasted a really long time on her. The texture was smooth and it was easy to rub in and blend out." —Summer

Get it from Amazon and Youthforia for $36.

Promising review: "I think I just found the best ice cream scoop ever! I was very surprised when I took it out of the box because it has some weight to it, so I knew right away that it would not break easily. It scoops ice cream beautifully and is dishwasher safe. I am so glad TikTok made me buy this!" —Ashley

Get it from Amazon for $11.97+ (available in 14 colors and a pack of 2).

Check out the Flavacol popcorn salt on TikTok!

Promising review: "I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn. This has by far been my favorite 'TikTok made me buy' item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make and I don't need to go the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time." —S Martinez

Get it from Amazon for $9.60.

Check out the vinyl record shelf on TikTok!

Record Racks is a small biz based in Round Rock, Texas that sells vinyl record displays.

Promising review: "Such a cool little shelf! We are already getting compliments and it is a much better solution than putting the sleeve of the album that’s playing on top of the record player!" —Alex

Get it from Record Racks on Etsy for $17.99 (available in 14 colors).

Check out the light switch cover on TikTok!

MindFlowers is a woman-owned small biz that sells clothing, accessories, and home decor inspired by the '60s and '70s.

Fly By Jing is an Asian woman-owned small biz that sells delicious sauces, dumplings, and spices.

Check out the Fly By Jing chili crisp on TikTok!

Promising review: "Ever since my sister introduced me to this life-changing condiment, I've slathered it on pretty much everything I could think of — from roasted vegetables and noodles to seafood and popcorn. It's got a kick, yes, and while I'm a big fan of spicy food, the thing I love most about this chili crisp is that it also has great flavor that doesn't get overpowered by the heat, which happens with so many other spicy sauces. That deep savory flavor comes from ingredients like fermented black bean, shallots, mushroom powder, ginger, and seaweed, so it's no wonder it's become my go-to pantry staple when I want to zhuzh up my dinner. PS: Some people even swear by it as an ice cream topping!" —Britt Ross

Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in two sizes and an extra spicy version) or Fly By Jing for $34 (for a two-pack).

Check out the memory foam pillow on TikTok!

Promising review: "I was skeptical at first, but I LOVE this pillow. It definitely takes some time to adjust because it isn’t your typical pillow, but I’ve been getting the best sleep the past week since the start of using this pillow. I also got one for my husband and he also loves it. We are both side and back sleepers. My neck doesn’t hurt in the morning anymore. I don’t feel the need to constantly crack my neck. I don’t wake up with headaches anymore. I’ve tried MANY pillows and this one is just off the charts. No comparison to others. Get it! I think the only con I have is how small it is. I could definitely be a bit bigger. It looks tiny on my king size bed, but that’s okay. That’s what decorative pillows are for!" —Katlynn

Get it from Amazon for $34.16+ (available in four colors).

Check out the glow-in-the-dark Fire TV Stick cover on TikTok!

Promising review: "It’s a thin silicone case that slips right on and has holes for all buttons and the microphone in the right places. It also has raised dots on the back to make it easy to grip. With the easy to see color, I no longer lose my remote in the couch cushions. Highly recommend." —S. Mizrahi

Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in eight styles).
