    32 TikTok-Approved Travel Items That You’ll Want To Pack For Your Next Trip

    If you have no idea what to bring on your next trip, TikTok has your back.

    1. A pack of storage scrunchies for small items you want to keep on you rather than stuffing them in the black hole that is your purse. Think ID, cash, lip balm, etc. Unzip the scrunchie, grab what you need, and be on your way.

    Promising reviews: "I bought this because of someone on TikTok who had purchased this. Extremely convenient and cute! They’re very soft, and I’ve been using mine to hold cash and lip balm. I wish there were more colors!" —Michaela

    "I bought these since I was going on a long vacation by myself. I rolled my money and was able to fit it inside the scrunchie. It’s soft, very stretchy, and fits my wrist! I didn’t have any issues with the zipper. I wore it on my wrist all the time and put money/lip balm inside it. It worked great during my vacation. This would be perfect to stash some things inside!" —Jessica Sandoval

    Get a pack of three from Amazon for $12.99 (available in seven color combinations).

    2. An AirFly Pro wireless transmitter if you want to connect your AirPods (or any other wireless earbuds) to the inflight entertainment system. Say goodbye to poor-quality airline headphones!

    You can connect up to two pairs of earbuds at a time and you'll get 16+ hours of battery life that'll help you survive those extremely long flights! It also comes with a USB-C charging cable, travel pouch, keychain holder, quick-start guide, and a manual.

    Promising review: "Just returned from a European vacation and this little device worked like a charm! The sound cancellation worked really well on that horribly long 14-hour flight and I could hear the movie perfectly. Just buy it, it's a must have (until airlines convert their stuff to Bluetooth, don't hold your breath)." —Just a Muggle Mom

    Get it from Amazon for $54.99 (also available in two other styles and in black). 

    3. A lovely Béis weekender duffel bag, aka your go-to travel bag thanks to the VERY wide opening that makes it easy to sift through. It has a bottom zipper pocket for shoes, a laptop sleeve, an external zipper pocket, and a trolley pass-through design for storing it on top of your luggage.

    Promising review: "I love everything about this bag!!!! Best bag I have ever owned. I love the opening of the bag and how wide it is. I love the bottom zipper part for shoes. Plenty of pockets for storage. I love the color. Like I said, I just love everything about it. Great quality. Can’t wait to add more Béis products to my travel plans." —Angela S.

    Get it from Nordstrom (available in three colors) or Béis for $108 (available in eight colors and in a mini size!). 

    4. Body Glide anti-blister balm so you never have to spend long travel days walking around in shoes that rub your ankles raw. It works best when applied at the start of your day to create a barrier between your skin and your shoes.

    Promising reviews: "Saw this product on a TikTok review and thought to give it a go. I definitely say it causes new shoes to be less painful however if you apply a lot it can be a little transferable on shoes. Overall though I think this product is definitely worth it and it does make a difference with new shoe wear!" —Mich Elle

    "This is a MUST if you're breaking in new flats. Helps prevent blisters. So easy and simple, yet effective." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99.

    5. And Body Glide anti-chafing balm because when is any kind of chafing not a total trip ruiner? Keep this stuff on hand and you'll never have to deal with this annoyance again.

    Promising reviews: "This was a TikTok buy, and it was worth it. Highly recommend it. It does the work. Long lasting and not sticky at all." —EBATL

    "Purchased this due to getting heat rashes along underwear line during work (running around a lot and it gets hot!) I wasn't sure how this was going to work out, but it has actually turned out to be really awesome!! When I use it, I never get rashes from the heat buildup. It holds up all day during my 12-hour shifts and has yet to fail me." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three sizes and as a two-pack).

    6. A foldable travel mirror when you've lost all faith in hotel mirrors. It has three light colors *and* adjustable brightness, so you'll get THE perf lighting to nail your makeup look. You'll be extra proud to be a part of the #TikTokmademebuyit crowd.

    It has three light settings (white light, warm light, and natural light) for your beauty routine. Just gently tap the switch on the screen to change brightness levels. Need to charge it? No worries, because it comes with a USB cable too.

    Check it out on TikTok here

    Promising review:  "I have been looking for something like this for so long. TikTok helped me find it and it’s exactly as what’s shown! The different light settings are all great, they are all bright, sturdy mirror/stands up well with no issues, good quality, not too big and not too small. Great for travel and everyday use. I’m 10/10 happy with this purchase!" —Chloe

    Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in five colors).

    7. A fashionable and functional anti-theft backpack to protect your valuables when you're traveling. It opens from the back rather than the front, so you won't be an unsuspecting pickpocket victim anytime soon.

    www.amazon.com, Britt Ross / BuzzFeed

    Not only does the backpack open from the inside, but it also has a phone pocket, document pocket, front zippered pocket, and an exterior side pocket. It's also made of nylon, so it's waterproof and has a strap to change it into a shoulder bag.

    Former BuzzFeed Shopping writer Britt Ross says: "I recently returned from Italy, and as someone who prefers a small backpack over a purse most of the time, I thought this would be a great purchase, as it would give me some peace of mind as I spent hours wandering around different cities. I'm happy to report that after two weeks of daily use, I'm convinced I'll be bringing it on every trip I take from now on. It's small enough so that it doesn't feel bulky or uncomfortable throughout the day, but has plenty of space for everything you'd need on the go — I fit my wallet, sunscreen, glasses case, hand sanitizer, water bottle, snacks, and even a small umbrella, with room to spare! And the fact that it opens from the back means someone would literally have to pry it off of you to get to your valuables. I bought the medium size in black pebbled faux leather, and it's actually quite cute for the price!"

    Promising reviews: "I bought this backpack to use as a purse while on vacation, and it worked perfectly. The main pouch is protected when you’re walking around because the zipper is protected by your back. There are also two side zippered pockets, one of which kept my phone and the other perfect for sunglasses and a few other items that I wanted to access more easily. I loved that I could wear it as a purse to dinner but use it as a backpack during the day so that my shoulder didn’t get tired. I highly recommend this item!" —Allison

    "Saw this on TikTok and had to order it. I love backpacks but I have a bad habit of leaving it open and then things falling out. My family appreciated me getting this. Love the crossbody." —Wanda Rankin

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two sizes and eight colors/styles).

    8. A shoe bag that'll hold a few pairs if you're always questioning how to pack 'em all. You can store it in your suitcase OR use the slide-on strap and secure it onto your luggage. Bonus: your shoes won't dirty the clean clothes in your suitcase!

    Promising reviews: "This item is perfect for travel. I found it on TikTok and had to purchase it. 10/10 would recommend!" —Makayla Shaw

    "You can totally fit three pairs of shoes in this! (Size 6.5 female shoe, fit heels, wedges, and sandals.) I bought two and will absolutely be buying more for my husband. 10/10 would recommend! I travel frequently, and I always overpack; this helped cut down space and stress immensely!" —Taylor

    Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in nine colors/patterns). 

    9. travel belt so you can secure your massive (but necessary) tote bag to your suitcase so you're not doing a balancing act in the airport. If you can travel with only one carry-on and one personal item, I salute you.

    The travel belt is adjustable to 45 inches so it will fit most bags.

    Cincha Travel is a Cali-based small biz started by a BIPOC couple that makes these adjustable straps from vegan leather. The brand also donates 100 airline miles for each purchase, which are used to reconnect separated migrant families.

    Promising review: "My backpack was safe and secure with my Cincha belt! Loved that I was able to clip and unclip easily while going through security and while boarding and exiting the plane. I would definitely consider this a nice gift for anyone who enjoys travel!" —Michelle

    Get it from Cincha Travel for $39.99 (available in 24 colors/designs; can be monogrammed for an additional $20).

    10. A portable clothes steamer because you shouldn't have to spend your vacation hunched over a hotel ironing board. Your fancy dinner outfit will be free of wrinkles before you know it!

    Reviewer photo of the steamer next to a water bottle
    Reviewer before and after photo of a red button down wrinkled and then not wrinkled

    Fill it up with water, plug it in, and you'll get 15 minutes of continuous steaming for each piece of clothing.

    Promising review: "Saw this on TikTok Must-Haves, my partner received a new job where they must wear wrinkle-free button-ups and dress pants, and due to the limited spacing we have in our home and closet, a lot of our clothes are folded. Every morning my partner uses this to help with removing the folded wrinkles on his clothes and the sizing, durability, and easy use of this steamer is just what he needed. This also saves me the time from steaming my partner's clothes since it's easy to use and he can do it himself, recommend it to anyone." —Yvonne

    Get it from Amazon for $27.99.

    11. An amazingly compact travel stroller — you shouldn't have to go on adventures without your must-have parenting items. This stroller is SO dang portable and it can count as a carry-on item.

    The stroller is designed to accommodate kids from ages 6 months up to approximately 4 years old (weighing up to 55 pounds).

    See it in action on TikTok here

    Promising review: "This stroller is great! So cool looking, too. I constantly have moms coming up to me asking where I got this! So easy to fold, so light, and barely takes any space in my trunk. We took it on a flight, and the flight attendants recognized the stroller and told me that I can just wheel the baby on and put the stroller in the overhead bin. I wish I had gotten this stroller with my oldest, but I was being cheap. This stroller is so worth the money. I regret not getting it sooner! But at least my youngest can enjoy it." —Nai Len

    Get it from Amazon for $149.99+ (available in three styles and three colors).

    12. A luggage-mounted cup caddy for travel days when you're zipping through the airport with your hands full as you try to make it to the gate without spilling your beloved iced coffee.

    See it in action on TikTok here.

    Promising review: "This cup holder is perfect! It helps me a lot! Last time I took a plane with a suitcase and a cup of coffee, I dropped and spilled my drink everywhere when it was my turn to check my passport and ticket. It was a nightmare! This time, I bought this cup holder to do me a favor! I don't have to worry about where my cup and phone are! I can free my hands to do other things. I love it so much! Hope you love it too." —Philip

    Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in 25 colors/patterns). 

    13. An in-flight phone mount to keep you entertained when the airline isn't offering anything good to watch. Simply attach it to your seat-back tray and binge any movies or shows you downloaded before takeoff.

    Promising review: "I bought this nifty gadget about six months ago for a multi-leg, ultra-long-haul trip and it more than held up the entire duration. I was able to finagle it to fit the tray tables on different planes, and like others, I find the height just nice when clamped onto a stowed tray table. It also works on my roller carry-on handle during layovers. However, I find myself using it a lot outside of travel too! Work-wise, I've clamped it onto my office desk shelving to hold my phone at eye level beside my computer. At home, I simply clamped it to a deck of cards and it turns into a versatile stand that I can place on any flat surface. Heck, I've been using it to hold my phone comfortably at eye level while watching videos in bed. It's extremely well-built, and I find myself fidgeting with it all the time. Thus far it still feels solid and I don't anticipate breaking it any time soon. Even if it does break, I'll be happy to buy another one or two of it!" —Earendil

    Get it from Amazon for $12.97 (available in three colors and as a two-pack).

    14. A genius Toptote hat clip because surely you don't want to stuff your precious hat in a suitcase where it'll get all deformed — and take up way too much space. This magnetic clip keeps your hat free of damage *and* prevents you from losing it.

    The magnetic clip securely attaches to your hat brim (damage-free) — just hook the gold hexagonal clip around the strap/holder of your choosing!

    The Fileist is a woman-owned small biz, formerly known as Lindsay Albanese.

    Promising review: "So happy I discovered TOPTOTE! As a hat lover, this product is seriously a lifesaver! I never have to carry my hats now when traveling and its’ magnets are SO strong. I’ve used it to carry multiple hats on my travels with no problem! Definitely a purchase well worth it!" —Adrianna

    Get it from The Fileist for $55 (also available in black/gold). 

    15. waterproof toiletry bag that can hold tons of stuff — it has four compartments so you can pack all your travel-size items without running out of room. There's also a handy hanging hook so you won't lose track of it. Thank you, TikTok!

    Promising reviews: "I saw this on TikTok and purchased it for my trip! Got back home and used it in my own bathroom. I love it that much! Best Amazon purchase I’ve ever made!" —Amazon Customer

    "I. Love. This. Bag. Seriously, I had a cheap toiletry bag from Target that essentially did the same thing, only way worse. It was too small; the hook didn't rotate so you could only hang it at an angle, if anything ever leaked; it would seep right through the bag, etc. But THIS bag has NONE of those issues! It fits everything I need and then some, meaning I don't have to skimp on my 10-step Korean skincare routine when I travel anymore. It never leaks. And I love that the hook swivels so you can hang it anywhere, and your stuff hangs perfectly. I also love the handle and the overall flatter shape. It makes it so easy to travel with! Cannot recommend this bag enough." —KaiEli

    Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in two sizes and 12 colors).

    16. A portable door lock, which is an absolute game changer for solo travelers who want peace of mind when it comes to their safety. It's a breeze to install/remove, it'll fit most doors, and it's small enough to toss in your bag. 

    FYI, this may occasionally be flagged by TSA. You can also check out this portable door alarm with a sleeker design.

    Promising review: "My apartment door has a deadbolt but no lock on the door handle. The latch is also misplaced, so if it’s not dead bolted anyone can just push my door open. Took a few tries to get this right but makes me feel much more secure, and it’s easy to use when you get the hang of it! I also take this with me when traveling, as it fits almost all doors. Definitely recommend; thanks TikTok for showing this to me." —Anna

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (also available in packs of two or four).

    17. A portable small power bank charger to keep your devices 100% juiced up on vacation so you never have to fret about a dead battery. There's a reason it has over 70,000 5-star ratings!

    See it in action on TikTok here

    Promising review: "This little gem is amazing! This year we were fortunate enough to do some local traveling and attend quite a few concerts this year. I take a ton of videos and pictures, often draining the battery. This power-packed product charged not only my phone when it was low, but my boyfriend’s AND the girl next to her!! Since you can only take small bags into venues, this slipped right into the pocket behind my phone! We had numerous comments on it because of the little paw charge indicator. The flashing came in handy a few times when we found ourselves in the dark! I will be buying more and giving them as gifts this year!" —Annetastic

    Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in five colors).

    18. A pair of Levi's pull-on jeans with pockets if you're officially done with uncomfy travel clothes — aka literally any pants with zippers and buttons. These will keep you cozy on stressful trip days so you don't feel constricted.

    back view of another reviewer wearing them

    Promising reviews: "These jeggings are great! They’re super cute, soft, and fit really well. I didn’t realize they were going to be 'waist cinching' or whatever (didn’t read the description as I just saw them on TikTok and ordered), so they are right and kind of difficult to get on, but once I got them on they were snug and actually really comfortable! Probably going to order another pair!" —Amazon Customer

    "Do these jeans make my butt look AMAZING??? Why yes, yes they do. These are amazing. Great for travel because they are comfy, yet don’t get loose and stretchy. They maintain their shape for several wears between washing. You can dress them up or down. My new go-to jeans. Ordered my usual size, and they fit like a glove. I have a short inseam, so these fit me a little below the ankle." —Kettlebell Swinger

    Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in women's sizes 2–28, three inseams, and 18 colors).

    If you have Amazon Prime Wardrobe, you can try this piece out before you buy it!

    19. Expandable hangers when you want to hang up your clothes rather than have them turn into a jumbled mess in your suitcase. Why do some hotels and Airbnbs think three measly hangers are enough for a week-long trip? TikTok to the rescue!

    Promising review: "I bought these to take on a cruise since there are never enough hangers in the cabin for our clothes. These are very lightweight and come in a nice drawstring bag. Despite being lightweight, they are very sturdy — strong enough to hold my husband's suit coat without any problem. You can extend them to larger for adult clothes or leave them smaller for tank tops/lingerie!" —Gail

    20. leakproof, portable dog water bottle for your favorite type of trips — you know, the ones that include your pup! The water spout is also a mini dish for them to drink from so they'll always be hydrated on your adventures.

    Promising reviews: "I saw this on a TikTok video and checked on Amazon and ordered it. My toy poodle loves it and drank out of it with no hesitation. With the heat wave we are having in California right now, I want to be sure she is well hydrated. Before I leave the house I fill the holder with ice and water, and I am set. Easy to clean and no spilled water in the car. Easy to throw in my purse and have it when we are out walking around." —Amazon Customer

    "This water bottle is truly a godsend! I cannot imagine using any other travel water bottle for my pups! It is slim, fits perfectly in a bottle slot in my travel bag; it is lightweight and has a loop to put around my wrist when I walk with my pups. It is extremely convenient on car rides, when my pup is thirsty and needs a quick pick-me-up! I especially love the fact that it sucks the water back in, so that I am not wasting unused water." —LV4NMLS

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three sizes and four colors). 

    21. A versatile tank top with a padded bra you can wear on warm weather excursions *and* on looong travel days where being comfy is your top priority. You may just need it in every color.

    Reviewers recommend ordering one size up for a more comfortable fit. 

    BuzzFeed Shopping senior writer Emma Lord says: "TBH, this crossed my radar because of Stephanie Buttermore, a popular YouTuber who shares stories of her gym routines on Instagram — but I've had a few friends who do yoga, lifting, and lower-impact activities swear by these both for workouts and for just chilling in."

    Promising reviews: "Yes, I bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and yes, this is as great as I thought it would be!! Suuuper comfortable and now my to-go bra! I bought three right off the bat after reading other great reviews. I have worn all of them alone while working out and as a bra for every day." —Sarah S

    "It’s very comfortable for working out and traveling, too! It looks great on. I’m a small in tops, but I ordered a medium, and it fits perfectly fine. It’s super comfortable, not super fitted, but just about right." —Kevin Shah

    Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 22 colors).

    22. A collapsible sunglasses organizer to hold all your sunnies while protecting them from damage. Now you can travel with your fave pairs so you can serve multiple looks with all your outfits!

    Promising review: "This organizer is even better quality than expected. It's really sturdy and solid. Great craftsmanship. It's super cool looking. Definitely looks more expensive than what you pay. The material where the glasses are held is extremely soft like suede, so this should prevent scratches and protect them while transporting. I really like that it has a way of keeping the glasses in place. I noticed other similar items don't have this feature, which is why I chose this above the others." —Namiko Minakata

    Get it from Amazon for $29.49+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

    23. An inflatable travel pillow so you'll actually be able to catch some much-needed ZZZs on the plane. When folded, it can be used for neck support OR you can unfold it and use it for lumbar support. There's even a pocket for your phone so you don't have to hold it while watching your shows.

    Promising reviews: "Just received this, and so far, so good! Inflates within mere seconds and takes the same to deflate. It seems really supportive and comfortable. I was influenced by a TikTok review, so I’m assuming it’ll be a gem on flights!" —Katelyn

    "I used this on four international flights last month, and it made all the difference in the world. It's compact, easy to inflate/deflate, very versatile in how you can position it, doesn't rely on the tray table, and works well for bulkhead seats as well as those with someone in front of you. I can't sleep with my head back without snorting myself awake, so this is a perfect alternative. I can very comfortably lean forward in my seat and sleep almost like I can in a bed. I'm 6'2", and this pillow is plenty tall enough to just rest on my lap and let me lean forward into it without feeling crunched over. This pillow will easily let me get enough comfortable periods of sleep on a nine-hour flight so that I don't feel completely drained upon arrival. My wife tried mine out before we left on vacation and loved it so much, she had me order her one. We both wouldn't travel without them now." —Still Chilly In Colorado

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99 

    24. A convenient Alleyoop Pen Pal for saving space in your nearly-exploding makeup bag without leaving any essentials behind. It's a 4-in-1 lip liner, eyeliner, brow pencil, and highlighter, so you'll have everything you need in one sleek pen.

    Alleyoop is a woman-owned small biz that is focused on redefining beauty efficiency. Many of their products are compact and have multiple uses! 

    Former BuzzFeed Shopping writer Jasmin Sandal loves this thing: "I didn't realize I'd ever use a makeup product in my twenties that had the ability to transport me back to something I used in sixth grade, but here we are; and here I am using a multitool pen...for my face. I gotta say, I love the concept of the Pen Pal from Alleyoop! After using all of the functions (eyeliner, highlighter, lip liner, eyebrow pencil) and as someone who LOVES makeup but was applying as little as humanly possible during lockdown, I think it’s a great tool for anyone looking to streamline their routine. It's ideal to use for touch-ups come the end of the work day, or a subtle, minimalist way to apply makeup in the a.m. The brow pencil is particularly soft and pigmented, and filled in my eyebrows quickly. I just adore the ease of application of each product, and appreciate the universal, does-it-all-for-you concept. Plus, it saves me so much room in my already overflowing makeup bag!"

    Promising review: "This is genius. I’ve been doing a lot of traveling and I like to keep my packing to a minimum. Not only is this convenient and travel friendly, but the color payoff is fantastic!" —Stefanie S.

    Get it from Alleyoop or Amazon for $20 (available in three shades).

    25. A Hackwith Design House shirt if you want to have several outfits ~up your sleeve~ while only packing a single garment! This sneaky shirt can be worn six (!) different ways, so it's perfect for trips with limited suitcase space.

    Hackwith Design House

    Hackwith Design House is a woman-owned small business that creates made-to-order apparel. This shirt can be worn as a V-neck, off-the-shoulder, boatneck, V-back, and even open as a jacket. And the color is simple, which means it can be paired well with many different bottoms. 

    BuzzFeed Shopping Editor Chelsea Stuart says: "I have this shirt and I *love* it. All credit for its discovery goes to TikToker @jennifer.bianca who I happened to stumble across on my FYP. It checks all my boxes: black, comfortable, versatile, and durable. My initial worry was that I wouldn't feel secure in it (I have a 38DDD chest and most wrap tops/dresses I've tried haven't stayed where they're supposed to), but I haven't had an issue with this! I've worn it tied in the front giving me a square neck (like the middle picture) and tied in the back giving me a V-neck up front (just like the photo on the right) — both were super comfortable, and I didn't have to adjust myself at all. As someone whose weight fluctuates, I also appreciate that this piece can handle pounds gained and lost. The fabric is medium weight, so I'll be wearing it season to season, and there's just enough elasticity in the arms that if you roll up your sleeves, they won't fall back down. All that is to say trust that I will be buying additional colors!"

    Get it from Hackwith Design House for $145 (available in women's sizes XS–4X and in five colors). 

    26. A makeup sponge holder because yes, you should be careful with those things considering you use 'em on your face! It keeps your sponge separate from all the other stuff floating around in your makeup bag. It's ventilated so the sponge can breathe and won't start smelling funky.

    Promising review: "This keeps my blender clean, especially when traveling. The silicone itself is easy to wash if it gets makeup on it. I love that it has the slits so that it 'breathes.' I travel at least once a week, and I love that it protects my blender but because it isn't hard plastic and is flexible. It fits in my regular makeup bag." —Erin - TN

    Promising reviews: "I think it's a great product for protecting your brushes, especially while traveling, which is the main reason I purchased it. TikTok had great reviews on it." —Yasmin

    28. A TikTok *and* TSA-approved Alleyoop portable razor with a compact design that'll take up hardly any space in your bag! It comes with two triple-blade razors, a moisturizing bar, and a spray bottle so you can shave on the go.

    Promising review: "I found out about this razor on TikTok, and I’m officially obsessed! I’ve been using it for the last week, so here’s my honest opinion. It’s perfect for missed spots or touch-ups, your gym bag, vacations, and I can see this being great for camping trips. The razor is not meant for full shaves or to replace your regular shower shaving routine, it’s very obviously for when you just need a quick touch-up here or there.

    I love that it has everything you need for a close shave — the refillable water spray bottle, a shea butter moisturizing bar that doubles as a pre-shave lotion and an after-shave moisturizer, and two three-blade razors. The product is super compact for everything that it holds.  If you’re considering buying this to replace your regular shower razor — don’t. But if you’re looking for a smart, convenient solution for a quick shave or touch-up, or something more convenient to travel with, then this is your new go-to travel razor!! I think everyone should have one of these in their car, purse, gym bag, travel bag, etc. Honestly can’t go wrong with it, it’s a 10/10 for me!!" —Helen Mantilla

    29. A set of dip clips to let you live your best life when you're on the road. No unfortunate messes in your car, but more importantly, you won't have to pass on your favorite dipping sauce when you hit the drive-thru.

    They'll fit onto horizontal or vertical air vents *and* can hold sauce packs from all popular fast food chains to make eating in the parking lot wayyyy easier!

     Promising review: "How did I go so long without one of these??? The Saucemoto was my first 'TikTok Made Me Buy It' purchase, and I have no regrets. It clips easily to my car's vent, and the sauce cups clip in easily so I can dip and drive. No more trying not to dump the sauce by accident while steering with the same hand that's holding the dip cup. It even comes with a dip cup for those places that do the pouches for their sauces rather than the cups. (I'm looking at you, Arby's.) Ya know, you end up squeezing the sauce onto the wrapper that's balanced on your lap, and you end up getting some sauce on your steering wheel. OR you try the whole 'wrapper and sauce on the passenger seat and try to dip while watching the road,' which usually doesn't turn out so great." —Pleasure Pamela

    30. bug bite suction tool because is there anything worse than getting bitten the moment you step outside to enjoy your vacation? This tool sucks the venom or insect saliva out to reduce itching, redness, and swelling. It works on mosquito bites, wasp/bee stings, and more.

    Promising review: "I bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and have been having issues with mosquito bites. Used it a few times to relieve itchiness and I am convinced it works! Have been recommending it to my family and friends.  Read the directions and follow them carefully. Don't use this on your face or neck, or other sensitive areas. Don't do a lot of suction, just a little bit. And do it a few times if needed. Great invention!" —Joe

    31. A jewelry organizer if you've been desperately searching for a way to pack your jewelry without it becoming a tangled mess. When you're not using it, it'll fold up into a thin little case that'll fit just about anywhere.

    Promising reviews: "I saw this recommended on TikTok and bought it on a whim. I never knew a jewelry organizer would be so useful! I absolutely love this organizer and think everyone should have one!!" —Savana Bishop

    "Great product! First, it’s adorable. I love the color, fabric quilting, and the gold zippers. Second, it is the perfect size for my jewelry when I travel. I don’t usually bring much jewelry, so this is a good size for me. The necklaces stayed tangle-free, and there are enough small zippered compartments for my bracelets and larger earrings. I was concerned about the organizer only having a snap closure and not zipping up all the way, but everything stayed secure and nothing fell out of place, so there’s that. Overall, a great product, and I would assume the other sizes and varieties are of similar quality." —Emily

    32. A portable car vacuum for getting rid of dirt, dust, and crumbs because a filthy vehicle is *not* what you had in mind while dreaming about your next long-distance road trip!

    Promising reviews: "This portable vacuum is ammmmmazing! I love all of the attachments to get the hard to reach spots! It gets the job done! TikTok made me buy it! If you are on the fence about this one... do it! Hit that buy now button. You will not be disappointed. Never putting quarters in a timed vacuum again. There is never enough time, and you rush around trying to beat the timer. Or is that just me? Haha." —Abigail

    "Yes, it is not as powerful as my vacuum cleaner in the house, however, it cleaned out all the garbage, which I accumulated over the past autumn and winter, in the car. At the end of October my husband and I went to the ocean and as we tried to be neat — the sand was still in the car. Finally, I got rid of it! Now my beauty again is clean, as on the first day, when I bought her!" —Julia Bright
