TikTok has a dedicated fan base for practically every topic out there, but the community of skin-care fanatics do not mess around. They're committed to finding the best of the best beauty products [1] on the market without breaking the bank, and they have very high standards when it comes to ingredients and formulas.
Blame it on Skincare by Hyram [2], the YouTuber turned TikTok star with six million followers educating the masses on various ingredients [3], or one of the many dermatologists on the app [4] making professional skin-care advice accessible for all [5], but the next generation of skin-care-lovers are reading labels and looking at everything with a critical eye.
