In recent months, TikTok has solidified its place in our daily lives, and 2022 will be no exception. While we’ve spent the year learning the top 15 scarf ties, updating our home decor to reflect the “Coastal Grandmother” style, and trying to make the delectable spicy air fryer shrimp, it’s the “TikTok Made Me Buy It” videos that have us scrolling through and adding these must-have items to our cart. Here are the top 30 TikTok presents to buy this holiday season for anyone on your list (or for yourself), from the Always pan to the Beis Weekender bag.
1. About Face Fluid Matte Eye Paint
PC- About face
This year, eye makeup was huge on the platform (think: siren eyes, rockstar makeup and under eye blush). But this $16 pick was the one thing that suddenly became quite popular. A couple PureWow editors had to put the eye paint’s claim that it can add a splash of colour with just one stroke to the test. (Spoiler: It’s accurate.) It has good pigmentation, is matte, and is generally smudge-free. It is available in 26 hues.
2. Koala-themed High Waist Leggings
PC- POPSUGAR
There’s a good reason why these high-waisted yoga trousers are currently Amazon’s top seller. The seamless waistline and more than 38,000 five-star reviews speak to their comfort and variety of colours. Don’t forget to mention the two spacious side pockets, which are helpful for holding anything from keys to phones, to surprise the runner in your life.
3. Solawave
PC- Beauty trend
On TikTok, a trendy skincare tool is constantly in demand—just take a look at the gua sha, ice globes, and facial brushes for examples. Red light therapy devices joining the fun is therefore not surprising. Use this tool every day for around five minutes to smooth rough skin, lessen the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, and gradually eliminate blemishes. “I’ve really started to look forward to using my SolaWave, since it’s the perfect end of day treat,” says PureWow editor Olivia Kappler.
4. Home office standing desk exercise bike from Flexipot
PC- Work trainer
This is your cue to get this standing desk and exercise bike for your new coworker (a.k.a. your wonderful spouse) to keep them on their toes and out of your hair. They can now get in their daily steps while receiving calls from work.
5. YogaToes
PC- AMAZON
Do you know someone who is continually moving around? While watching TV—or, even better, browsing TikTok—they’ll appreciate giving their toes a brief relief from the discomfort and swelling.
6. No Limitations Ladies’ Knit London Boots
PC- Buzzfeed
Yes, these “Walmart boots” are very popular for the next winter months. Choose one of the three colors—bone, blush, or black—or get all three. You (or your fashionable bestie) can stay cosy all season long for just $30 per pair.
7. PVO Mini Projector
PC- Nerd techy
Sorry everyone, but small projectors are now in and TVs are officially out. Use one to watch Stranger Things in one sitting or do the “Fake Window Challenge” on TikTok, where users turn their bedroom walls into eye-catching images of the outdoors, space, or even an aquarium. However, you could always just have a movie night in its place.
8. Makeup Brush Cleaner
PC- Amazon
If your brushes haven’t been cleaned in a while, we won’t pass judgement. Your issues can be resolved with an electric cleaner. Eight rubber collars on this tool allow it to work with almost any brush. Additionally, it only needs to be used in three steps: add water and cleaning agent, then watch as the machine clears all the debris. Oh, and it also dries them.
9. Bonoak Wireless Bluetooth Karaoke Microphone
PC- Bonoak
It’s time to upgrade the carpool karaoke experience. With the help of this Bluetooth microphone, you may speak as if there were an entire arena filled with enthusiastic spectators. There’s no need to mount it to your phone (or vehicle) so your duet partner can have pleasure in incorporating some dance. (Or, as Tiktoker Tonia Erin demonstrated, you can always use it to humiliate your child at school drop-offs.)
10. Tennis Skirt
PC – Glamour UK
Okay, so you don’t need to be a professional athlete like Serena to wear this stylish choice. Tennis skirts, a popular fashion trend for 2022, combine comfort and style. The major characteristics of this one are soft and elastic fabric, a high waistline, ruffle pattern, and hidden phone storage pockets. It has 21 colours so you can match it with any outfit.
11. Smartphone UV Sanitizer PhoneSoap
PC- Amazon
We can all think of at least one person who is glued to their phone (looking at you, Aunt May). So give them a cool tech item that, while it’s charging, sanitises any phone for 10 minutes as well as keys, smartwatches, and even your credit card.
12. Weekender bag by Beis
PC- zidmall.com
Your travel buddy will appreciate having a carry-on that satisfies TSA regulations and fits everything. The bag includes a big base where you can fit all of your clothes, a bottom compartment where you can store shoes or toiletries, and a rear sleeve where you can tuck it directly on top of your luggage as you move through the airport. The Beis Weekender has undoubtedly earned a home among my travel needs, and I’m excited to see where it goes with me next, said one PureWow editor.
