This TikTok-Viral Brand Unlocks Firm, Smooth, and Good-Smelling Skin

I'm inventing a new historical abbreviation that the entire population, especially the beauty community, needs to become acquainted with: BTT, aka before TikTok. Do you even remember life before TikTok? I really don't. While the beloved social media site has quickly become the go-to platform for, well, kind of everything, it's been especially pivotal for all things beauty. Practically overnight, previously under-the-radar brands can skyrocket to stardom, you can discover the most ridiculous-sounding beauty hacks that are somehow totally copacetic, and you can hear and see no-BS reviews on all sorts of products, treatments, and anything else pertaining to beauty. It's fun as long as you remember to come up for air every few hours or so.

Of course, Sol de Janeiro's best-selling Brazilian Bum Bum Body Cream ($48) was iconic in its own right BTT, but the brand and its slew of wonderfully scented, super-effective products have gained popularity and buzz at warp speed since accruing more and more attention on sites like TikTok. In fact, phrases like "best sol de janeiro products" and "sol de janeiro review" have reached fever-pitch search numbers on Google. So here I am, happy to oblige and give the people what they want! While I've been slathering on the Brazilian-inspired line of gourmand-centric products since the brand's inception back in 2015, I realize some people might want some helpful direction in terms of which products to try first. Below are 17 of my all-time-favorite Sol de Janeiro products, ranked and sorted by category. Yes, even though the brand started out as strictly bodycare, it has branched out into haircare and fragrance and constantly blesses us with new launches. Keep scrolling!

For special occasions or days when she's taking more meetings or has an event, she'll wear anything and everything from Charlotte Tilbury (the foundations are game-changing), some shimmer on her lids (Stila and Róen do it best), and a few coats of the best mascara-type product on earth, Surratt's Noir Lash Tint.
