Tik Tok There are many things: one music discovery platforma fun way to waste an hour (or two), A search engineand, more recently, a ecommerce application. With the global launch of Tiktok Store, it has never been easier to buy the products you see in your FYP without having to leave the application. That means there has been an increase in the number of products (and affiliate marketing) shared on the platform. It has become the best or worst facilitator of the impulsive buyer.
“TikTok made me buy it” is now simply a way of life. For each tiktok aesthetic proliferates on the app or in the #CleanTok viral video, another product is added to our carts. It is a bad influence on our wallets.
Mashable saves you the hassle of deciding which TikTok-promoted product is in fact It’s worth the money by giving you a look at the things the app influenced us to buy this year. So what is a jump and what is a buy? Read below to find out.
Labigo electric spin scrubber
I hate cleaning the bathtub. Somehow I always end up bent over, rubbing my hands and knees, soaked and with a headache from breathing Clorox spray. My FYP TikTok is full of intense cleaning videos, and one in every four or five videos for a while was from Labigo electric spin scrubber. I bought it to try it out for this story and I was honestly impressed with how well it worked. It comes with four different cleaning heads for corners, flat surfaces, tubs, and grout, and is quite powerful. I was able to put good pressure on it to clean some soap scum from the sides of my tub, and the corner brush worked wonders to clean where the tub meets the wall. The best part is that this brush cleaned my tub much faster than I could have done with a rag myself, and I didn’t even have to bend over thanks to the extendable handle. I could see Labigo being a great tool for seniors or people with mobility issues who need to clean but have trouble bending down to scrub things.
The only reason I regret buying it is because it ruined my TikTok algorithm. Since adding it to my TikTok Store cart, almost all of my FYP videos are now of a cleaning brush. — Jae Thomas, Associate Buying Editor
The croptuck
I must admit that the French fold has never worked for me. Nothing about grabbing the bottom of my shirt and pushing it down the front of my jeans felt comfortable, and it certainly never stayed in place. Not even weird eyes tanning france It could help me perfect the technique. So when I saw the Croptuck on my For You page, designed by women of all sizes, I added it to my cart.
The Croptuck is almost stupidly simple: it’s an adjustable elastic band that goes over your head and fits around your hips or waist. Tuck your t-shirt under your band and enjoy an effortless cropped look all day long.
The little band has totally changed the way I dress for winter and has thankfully banished shirt pushing from my life. If I wear a thick sweater over a dress, the Croptuck takes the look from bulky to elegant. I usually forget I’m wearing it – my tops don’t move and there are no awkward folds. Also, if I eat a lot at dinner, I simply loosen the band to accommodate the extra inches around my stomach. The only drawback I have found with using the band is that if you overheat and need to take off a layer of clothing, you have to take the Croptuck off with it. — Elizabeth de Luna, cultural reporter
Little Green Bissell Machine
Have the the best in the world and the most adorable dog (this is a fact, not an opinion) is a blessing and a curse. The blessing? I get to play with a 75 pound pittie and shar-pei mix who makes me believe there are good and pure things in this world. The course? The little one moves like there is no tomorrow.
So when the Bissell Little Green carpet cleaner started going viral on tiktok It wasn’t a hard sell. Dozens of TikToks showed the little machine performing small miracles: removing stains, vacuuming up pet hair, removing years of dirt from car upholstery. When I saw it go on clearance sale through Amazon Tracker Fat Kids DealsI jumped in when I had the chance.
And I have to say, it works. Not for everyday cleaning – it will wet surfaces and requires time and effort. But plays. I’ve used it to remove stains, clean dirt from a carpet, and absorb piles of hair deposited on our couch by the best dog in the world. Every two weeks, I deep clean the appropriate surfaces in our small New York apartment with the little green machine and it makes a noticeable difference. There is much less dust, less pet dander and everything smells delicious.
Furthermore, you get to see the brown color results in the tank of the machine, and it is VERY satisfactory. I highly recommend it, especially if you have a dog. Even if you’re not the best dog in the world (you’re not, sorry), the machine will still work for you. — Tim Marcin, cultural reporter
Ultra shiny lip
I love a blendable matte lipstick, but my chronically dry lips don’t. After watching approximately 1,200 TikToks praising the Ultra shiny lip, I thought I could try to be kinder to my lips in the colder months, so I caved and bought it in Pony (the closest shade to my beloved Gen G in Fuzz). I think it’s a little sticky (at the end of the day, I’m a satin-to-matte feminine formula), but it’s perfect for those drier days, and for this, I thank my algorithm. — Bethany Allard, Shopping Reporter
The AIRstik
I can’t get away from the AIRstik, the little plastic device that’s meant to attach to any glass surface and hold your phone there so you can take hands-free photos. It’s been almost two months since I bought it and it’s still on my For You page. It’s been praised on the app as a must-have for creators who want to create content on the go, and I think it’s keeping an eye on my algorithm because, well, it really works.
The AIRstik uses what it calls “nano suction” technology to adhere to glass surfaces and hold up to two pounds. It is infinitely reusable and does not leave any sticky residue. Mine clings to my bathroom mirror like a dream and comes off with a quick tug. The product packaging warns “Use on glass surfaces only!” but the TikTokkers managed to place it on their shower tiles, refrigeratorsand even a rusty pipe on the beach. Stay at your own risk, but know that AIRstik is a good deal at the end of the day. —EDL
Amika Blowout Babe Thermal Brush
Technically I didn’t buy the Amika Blowout Babe Brush Myself, but I’m certainly not complaining that I had to call one up and try it out as part of my job after seeing the hype online (review incoming btw). Before performing the test as As many Airwrap dupes as I could get (and the real tool per se), I didn’t consider myself someone “good” with hair. While I’m still solidly mediocre, the Amika Blowout Brush is perhaps the easiest possible way to get a sleek, polished blowout style that makes me look like I have a much greater skill set. Plus, I love that I don’t need to get my hair wet when I want to use it. – Degree
Mini ice cube trays
Somehow I made it to IceTok in 2023. My FYP became saturated with videos of people. aesthetically replenish your freezers with ice cube trays of different shapes and fillings. Something about it hit that sweet spot of ASMR and aesthetic home organization that left me absolutely mesmerized. It influenced me to buy a set of ice trays that make mini and spherical ice, and I don’t think I can ever go back to standard ice cube trays. These are harder to fill than your average mold, but once you get the hang of it, it’s not so bad. The set I bought came with a storage container, so I can stock up on deliciously round ice and pull it out as needed. I stick to ice water from the tap, but I drink my Simple modern glass filled with little frozen spheres still makes me feel like a TikTok girl. — Miller Kern, Associate Reviews Editor
Medium Nylon Half Moon Baggu Bag
Believe the TikTok hype. Baggu’s Medium Nylon Half Moon Bag It is, in fact, magic. And by magic I mean spacious. I can fit my entire S’well water bottle along with my makeup backup, Hello Kitty pill box, sunglasses, wallet, and a book or two. I even put my raincoat in there on a cloudy day. It’s become my favorite gig bag as it’s still small enough for most places, but also big enough to fit products and a camera, and since it’s nylon and washable, I don’t mind putting it in on the ground at risk of being trampled. overflowed or spilled. (Just don’t put your Baggu in the dryer, it just air dries!) Did I mention this bag comes in practically every color? I recently bought the Sandy Liang x Baggu Medium Nylon Crescent Bag in Plaid Print from the Flower Market, and it makes me feel better than others when I use it.
Anyway, I’m convinced that Baggu is a cult because in the span of 365 days I went from having one Baggu to eight Baggus. Do I need eight Baggus? No. But I’m easily influenced, and something tells me I’m not alone if the 246.1 million views and count on TikTok are anything to go by. — Crystal Bell, cultural editor
