Tiktok Skincare Trends To Try Out In 2022

 



The viral social media platform Tiktok is no doubt a hub for so many quick tips and tricks about food, fashion, basketball, and of course skincare. Scrolling through Tiktok means that you’re bound to come across some skincare advice that seems illegal to know for free when it comes to treating issues like acne, blackheads, hyperpigmentation, and so on.


That being said, some certified skincare gurus have come out to criticize certain advice shared on the app claiming that they cause more harm than good. On the other hand, they have given thumbs up to others.


Let’s find out the Tiktok skincare hacks can actually improve your skincare game.


5 Viral Skincare Hacks That Actually Work


1. Applying Products On Damp Skin

The first must-try Tiktok hack is to apply or layer your products on damp skin. Doing this helps your serum or moisturizer to sink into your skin easily to perform maximally. Applying moisturizer on damp skin adds more hydration and seals in the moisture. This makes your skin feel refreshed and smooth.


What you need to do


– For this hack, you need to use a hydrating cleanser like the Mariposas gentle soapless cleanser.

– Lightly dab your face with a towel to get rid of excess water.

– Get your favorite moisturizer and apply it to your face and body.



2. Double Cleansing

If you’ve not been double cleansing till now, you’ve really been missing out. So many Tiktok skin influencers swear by double cleansing because it gets rid of impurities that sit in your pores.


If you’re someone that goes out a lot, you most likely put on makeup and sunscreen daily so cleansing just once really isn’t enough to get rid of all the dirt and product residue.


What you need to do


– You need to first get a good oil cleanser even if you have oily skin or combination skin.

– After using the oil cleanser on your face, the next step is to go in with a calming cleanser like the Moonbow soapless cleanser.

– You can then proceed to layer your products.


3. Face Icing

For this particular skincare tip, we need to first point out that icing your face doesn’t get rid of acne. In fact, this misconception about how face icing helps to get rid of acne in a short time is false.


However, icing your face every morning can help to reduce redness and puffiness. If you also have dull skin, icing helps to brighten your face. This is possible because icing helps to improve blood circulation on your face.


What you need to do


– As soon as you wake up, you can either put ice water in a bowl and dunk your face in or get ice cubes and massage it all over your face.

– To switch it up, you can freeze green tea, turmeric, rice water, aloe vera, and so on.

– After 30 mins, you can then proceed to wash your face.



4. Gua Sha

Gua Sha has caught the eyes of so many skincare enthusiasts and has become a must-have skincare tool. Gua Sha has been in use as far back as the Ming Dynasty in China and studies have recently proven it very useful.


This stone is said to help boost blood circulation, reduce puffiness, reduce fine lines, and help to relieve muscle tension. Very impressive if you ask us.


Even though there is still some skepticism about using Gua Sha, a large number of skincare gurus have agreed to the benefits listed above.

There are so many tutorials on how to use Gua Sha but we advise you to be very careful when using it.


An extra tip here is to leave the Gua Sha in the freezer and then use it to gently massage your face in the morning.


5. Micellar Water For Makeup Removal

Last on our list is to remove your makeup with Micellar water which is said to be an affordable option instead of using face wipes.


Micellar water is pure and alcohol-free which when used, will leave your face feeling hydrated. “Skintok” influencers have attested to the fact that Micellar water helps to clear out your pores from dirt and oils while leaving your skin feeling smooth and refreshed.


What you need to do


– Damp a cotton pad with Micellar water and gently apply it all over your face removing your makeup.

– Make sure that the cotton pad isn’t soaking wet to avoid making a mess or getting the product into your eyes.

– Do this twice to get rid of as much makeup as possible before going in with a mild cleanser like the New Moon soapless cleanser.

Even though you shouldn’t believe everything you see on social media, we have to admit that these Tiktok skincare hacks have been tested and are trusted. It’s totally up to you to keep or toss them.

The Clumsy Wife

When you were asked about your swollen right eye, you said you sleepwalked and hit your face against the wall. We all said sorry and asked you to get well soon. A few days after, it was your chin that was shifted to the side. In response, you blamed it again in your clumsiness and that you feel off the bed. You are a grown woman in her late 30's. This time, we had questions that we couldn't dare to ask you. Weeks later, you were limping and you assured us that it was your clumsiness that made you fall down the stairs. At this point, we faced our business and wished you all the best. 2 months later, you're lying in a golden casket, 6 feet under the ground.  The autopsy read that you died from a deep gash on your forehead, probably a hit from the bloody plank of wood that was found beside your corpse. At this point, you want to talk. You wanted to say it all. But it's too late. Your husband claimed you hit your head on the plank, and we all believed him because you told u

She Must Be Obeyed Movie Review

  I don't understand Funke Akindele's obsession with the music industry Sha. She is always trying to project the industry one way or the other - we have Industreet already. On this new one Sha, I don't know how to feel about it.  This storyline is great. The life of a Celebrity musician behind the camera and in front of the camera. But the directing get as e be. The movie just dey anyhow. But the acting from some cast made up for the 'anyhowness'. Bishop (Okon) was amazing. Lateef was great. Gayness doesn't fit Akah. He shouldn't try it again. Vee tried small. I don't understand what Ali Nuhu was acting. Lizzy Jay sef dey vex person. The entire Rachael Okonkwo family weren't it at all. Mama Gee no try at all. Don't give her a drunk role again. Nancy Isime was Nancy Isime, Just there. Shaffy Bello was great as always. In all, I will give it a 4/10.

Big Love Movie Review

  While this movie tried not to be your regular Nollywood Romantic movie, I still got annoyed at some small small mistakes that I saw. Inkblot is too big for some mistakes that were present in this movie. Overall, Big Love is nice. It's a movie that would take you through a rollercoaster of emotions. The beginning was quite not it.  Most of the dialogues got me rolling my eyes, like warahell. Casting was great. Storyline was amazing Directing wasn't coordinated. There were scenes that looked rushed and scattered. PS - VJ Adams should just leave Bimbo for Timini. Their chemistry is mind-blowing. Timini had grown as an actor. And it's great to see. Aunty Shaffy is great, as always. Overall, I'd give it an 8/10.
