Tiktok fashion and beauty tricks taking over the internet

If there is anything you want to learn, Tiktok somehow has the answer to all the questions you could ever ask, fashion and beauty just being some of them.

Even Though the first thing that comes to most of our minds when we think of Tiktok is the endless new dance routines that hit our tiny screens every single day, there is a major place for beauty and fashion on the short video posting platform. With the recent shift to beauty and fashion focused content on the platform, we have seen it become a host to many innovative and interesting beauty and fashion hacks and trends, that could either streamline your lifestyle or make you the talk of the town (mostly in a good way). With a major scan of our For You Page, we have condensed the most eye-catching trends, both new and innovative or a blast from the past to save you hours of scrolling through Tiktoks and give you a Tiktok fashion guide to get you started on giving your closets and routines a revamp.

Cargo pants

As the cellphones of the world keep getting larger, we sure need our pockets to keep up and little did we know cargo pants already had that solution for us back in the 90s and 00s. Even Though this may not necessarily be the reason this Y2K fashion trend has been all over the internet recently, we sure can appreciate anything that offers style and comfort as a 2-in-1 package. With the return of the cargo pants, this is a trend you need to jump on to create the perfect cool girl outfit that transitions seamlessly from day to night wear, a super versatile piece that you can style for a super casual street wear look or dress up for a night out with friends.

Button down

This may look like a simple piece that is probably already taking up space in your closet but thanks to all the fashion icons on Tiktok prioritising basics to look fabulous the button down has gone from a simple piece to a statement piece. With them being comfortable, easy to wear and most importantly, versatile you don’t need to compromise on your personal style to stay on trend. Throw it over any of your outfits to elevate it and look effortlessly chic.

Feathers

If there is one thing the fashion world of Tiktok has taught us is that you can go all out and wear absolutely anything your heart desires and for many that includes using feathers to overturn their outfits. With popular fashion Tiktokers adding a feather trim to any outfit, are shifting the tide of minimalism to maximalism and adding drama to a previously simple outfit.

Layering

Now this is where you let your imagination run wild. With vests and corsets over button down shirts, dresses over shirts and skirts over pants, the possibilities have become endless without needing an elaborate closet to express yourself with your outfits. If there are separate pieces in your closet that you love but would never think of pairing them together, maybe this is your sign to give it a try.

Clean girl style

 Having mostly been born following the footsteps of the likes of Bella Hadid, Gigi Hadid and Hailry Bieber, the clean girl style is basically another, more trendier name of a more minimal style. With barely there makeup, glassy skin and perfectly put together hair, the clean girl has her life all put together- or at least that is how it appears to be. Much of the clean girl style also revolves around keeping it simple with oversized, sporty looks. Throw on a high rise, wide legged denim, a simple but oversized shirt and dainty gold jewellery and you have yourself the “off-duty model” look.

Sky high power pony

From the runways of Versace and Chanel to the stages of Beyonce and Madonna, the power ponytail has taken the fashion and beauty world by storm. Usually this look is achieved with the use of hair extensions but when celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton broke down the technique of achieving this perfect sky high ponytail without extensions, it went viral on Tiktok, with countless people recreating the look. All you need to do for this technique is tie your hair into a half ponytail, with the bottom loose section, divide it into 2 sections and pull it over your ponytail on both sides and secure with another hair tie for a voluminous, layered pony.  This is one of those trends that are the perfect transition from working out to going out.

Crystals are your tiktok best friend

I am sure we have all watched out fair share of skincare Tiktoks in our time on the platform, be it skincare restock videos, skincare tips or just a very elaborate skincare routine, all of which are very addicting to watch, you must have come across some form of a crystal incorporated into a skincare regime. From jade rollers to rose-quartz gua sha and germanium facial massagers, these tools work to relax your face muscle, reduce puffiness and increase blood circulation to your skin, if you like a lot of us are intrigued and looking to try them out, make sure you use some kind of slip before going in with these tools such as a facial oil or over a sheet mask.
