Skincare

This past year has been all about self-care, and what better way to start that with the proper skincare routine? TikTok has countless of viral videos sharing skincare products that leads to them being sold out for months. Here are a few viral skincare products we think are worth your money.

1. Tree Hut Sugar Scrub

The Tree Hut Sugar Scrub, specifically “Exotic Bloom” was sold out for months this past winter and we can see why. The name says it all, while exfoliating your skin it also makes it smell like you are ready for a luxurious night out it Bora Bora. Smell good and feel soft and smooth with this product for under $10!

2. CeraVe Renewing Face Cleanser

Another product that was hard to get your hands on for months because of TikTok. This gentle cleanser went viral after many showed amazing before and after results with clear skin. We agree with both great ingredients and price, this product is worth the hype.

3. Mighty Patch – Hero Cosmetics

Perfect for those who pick at their face, these mighty patch stickers are the perfect way to get rid of a blemish without leaving a mark.

4. Glow Recipe – Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops

All things Glow Recipe went viral after makeup gurus were showing off the glow that looked almost too good to be true. We have highlighted their watermelon glow niacinamide dew drop, but you can’t go wrong with anything from their line.

Makeup

This year TikTok has showed us all the most popular dupes for high-end makeup. With everyone on a budget these days, here are some of our favorite viral makeup products that won’t break the bank.

5. Infallible 24HR Fresh Wear Foundation

Achieve that flawless skin but better look with this Infallible foundation. This long lasting formula gives you the perfect finish plus has SPF in it to help protect that skin barrier.

6. e.l.f. – Putty Blush

This brand itself had numerous products that TikTok made us buy, but this one is our current favorite. With so many different shades, the e.l.f. putty blush is the perfect addition to your collection for the summer.

7. Essence – Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara

Achieve long and voluminous lashes for $4.99?! No wonder this product went viral, the quality of this mascara puts high end products to shame.

8. Maybelline – Lifter Gloss

We all know and love the Fenty Gloss Bomb, so why wouldn’t we want an affordable dupe? That’s exactly what this Maybelline gloss went viral for. The perfect drugstore lip gloss to toss in your bag, both shiny and contains hyaluronic acid to moisturize at the same time.

Hair

Many of us took the journey of products that lead to healthy hair. TikTok exposed brands and products with bad ingredients, and highlighted others that will revamp your hair. Below are some of our favorite viral hair products.

9. Revlon – One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer

A blow dryer and styling tool all in one? No wonder this product was all over TikTok. You could see this product being used by any and everyone posting a hair tutorial. A quick and easy way to both dry and style your hair at the same time.

10. Silk Hair Ties

One thing TikTok has taught us is that silk is the ultimate fabric for hair health. We already knew scrunchies were better than hair ties, but now take it step further with silk scrunchies.

11. Scalp Massager

Perfect to exfoliate any leftover residue from hair products, plus it feels great. Use this scalp massager when shampooing to help stimulate hair growth.

13. Aerie – OFFLINE Real Me High Waisted Crossover Legging

This comfortable legging snatches your waist to create the ever so wanted hourglass figure. Be sure to pick up a pair of these aerie leggings the next time you need to restock on your athleisure wardrobe.

14. Prada Shoulder Bag

Not the most affordable product to go viral, but surely one of the most trendy. The early 2000’s are back again, and this bag is the perfect Y2K accessory to pair with any outfit.

15. Y2K Clothing

Like we mentioned before all things early 2000’s are trending on TikTok. Gen Z is discovering the days of sidekicks, low rise jeans and putting their own spin on it. Be sure to shop Shein as they have a whole Y2K clothing section for you to reminisce.

Shein – Allover Print Halter Neck Bodycon Dress

Home

Home decor, kitchen or cleaning products all went viral on TikTok. Here are some the things we added to our cart when checking out new items for our home.

16. The Pink Stuff

If anyone is on cleaning TikTok then you already know about the pink stuff. The simple and easy cleaning paste, just slab it on a surface and let it sit. Wipe if off and your surface looks brand new.

17. Silk Pillowcases

Not only are silk pillowcases better on your hair, but also your skin. With the texture not being so rough on your hair and face, it also absorbs less of your moisturizer you just put on before bed.

18. Target Plastic Dinnerware

These Room Essentials dinnerware by Target are the perfect pick for any college student or anyone on a budget. Great for the dorm room or apartment, these kitchen accessories are cute and fun without spending a fortune.

Lifestyle/Tech

Let’s be honest we all have been guilty of buying viral gadgets just to cure boredom. Whether it’s something to experiment with in the kitchen, or just to kill some time while stuck at home. Here are some of our favorite viral lifestyle and tech products.

19. Air Fryer

While experimenting in the kitchen this past year, we have also tried to “somewhat” be more health conscious. Snag this air fryer to create all kinds of meals and snacks, without all that extra grease.

20. Milk Frother

For a while we all had to become our own personal Starbucks barista. Trying to master our favorite coffee drink, we experimented and tried to be fancy with our drinks. Add this frother to the mix and create your own foam to add to your morning coffee.

21. Carpool Karaoke Microphone

Whether you actually wanted everyone to hear you sing from your car or simply annoy your family, this product went viral for a reason. We saw countless videos of friends in the car make their drive nowhere more fun with this microphone. Get one for long road trips or to actually sing karaoke with.

Influencer Guide + 5 Tips to Grow Your Instagram Account

by chirpyest June 24, 2021

Growing your Instagram following isn’t as easy in 2021. However, that doesn’t mean it’s not impossible. It takes a combination of good content, consistency, and social media strategy to grow a loyal and large following. Social media is the ultimate medium to reaching your desired target audience. There are more than one billion active users on social media platforms. And over 38% are checking their social media accounts multiple times a day. With the right strategy, you can grow your Instagram account to reach your goal.

The Chirpyest team has curated a list of 5 Tips to grow your Instagram account!

1. Find Your Target Audience

Who is the audience you are trying to reach? As soon as you find your target audience, then you can create a strategy. Figure out what kind of people will be interested in your content. Find accounts that you love and see who is following them!

How to Find Your Target Audience?

Research similar accounts and competitors. See which accounts are interacting with their content.

2. Create Consistent Content

Design a posting schedule to follow every week. Figure out what cadence works for your account. After researching, we discovered that a minimum of three IG feed posts and 2 reels per week have increased our Instagram account’s overall reach.

Things to Remember while creating content:

What’s your hook?

Does your content convey emotion? Funny, Happy, Sad, etc.

Does your content have a hero product/item?

Is your content relatable, inspirational, motivational, and/or educational?

3. Engage!

Interact with your audience, authentically. Show off your personality, show emotion, share a personal experience, etc. Your audience loves to hear from you! Don’t be afraid to connect with them.

4. Pay Attention to New Updates and Features

Social media platforms will prioritize their newest updates. Take advantage by creating specific content for those features. (Reels, IGTV, TikTok, and more).

5. Develop a Hashtag Strategy

Hashtags have become a more complex marketing tool. Posting hashtags like #food or #fashion don’t have an effective reach anymore. Find hashtags within your niche that have under 1 million uses. In fact, have 20-30 hashtags that are within your niche and/or target the audience you are trying to reach. The right hashtag strategy will maximize the number of people reached and target your desired audience for your account/business.

Types of Hashtags: Community Hashtags, Branded Hashtags, Trending Hashtags, & Niche Hashtags
