At this point, we’ve all seen a product recommendation on TikTok. It’s easily become the one app that can sell out an entire stock in just one video. By covering all aspects of life, fashion, beauty and beyond, I’ve found myself purchasing items I’ve never even heard of – especially when I hear that the results can be ‘life-changing’.
From double-walled coffee cups that can seriously save your fingers from burning off to a can organiser that I’ve only dreamed of using and so many more amazing finds. Needless to say, whether you like the app or not, it can be very knowledgeable, and for that, I applaud the masterminds behind it.
Over time I realised that not only myself but my friends had collected quite a few things we didn’t think we needed, but the results were quite impressive, or at the very least, entertaining. Ahead, find ten items you didn’t know you needed (but low-key do.)
double walled coffee cup
One of the app’s most shared item is this practical yet functional double installed glass mug that protects your hands from getting burned when picking up your morning coffee – genius.
portable bag sealer & cutter
Have you ever opened a bag of chips and wished you had something to reseal it with? Because I have, and it’s happened on several occasions. This mini bag sealer will easily save your chips from hardening and keep you from frantically running around the house searching for a rubber band to close it with.
charging station
Let’s be honest, did you not see this product and think I need it instantly? Because I know I did. I find myself charging my AirPod, laptop and iPhone all over my room, but how easy would it be if they were all in one place? This screams convenience and organization to me, and I’m beyond here for it.
