Cowboy Copper hair is the fusion of leather tones, hence, ‘cowboy’ with classic redhead shades. It delves slightly deeper into brunette undertones whilst being infused with the richness of deep copper accents. The hashtag #cowboycopperhair racks up a cool 4.7 million views on TikTok. But before you saddle up for this trend, let’s talk about how to make Cowboy Copper Hair work harmoniously with your unique skin tone.

Fair Skin with Warm Undertones

The fiery hue complements your complexion beautifully, creating a harmonious balance. To enhance the warmth, opt for a shade with more orange undertones, like a sunset copper.

Medium Skin with Neutral Undertones

Cowboy Copper Hair can give medium skin with neutral undertones a sun-kissed radiance. Go for a shade that leans towards auburn or reddish-brown.

Olive or Tan Skin with Warm Undertones

Aim for a deeper copper hue, perhaps with a hint of chestnut. This pairing adds depth and richness to your hair, emphasizing your natural warmth.

Dark Skin with Cool Undertones

Opt for a cooler, burgundy-infused copper. This creates a dynamic contrast that accentuates your natural coolness while adding an unexpected twist to your overall look.

Dark Skin with Warm Undertones

Go for a rich, fiery copper with red undertones. This combination enhances your warm undertones, creating a stunning visual effect.

Porcelain or Very Fair Skin with Cool Undertones

Opt for a copper shade with a touch of burgundy to create a captivating visual dynamic.

Originating on YouTube in the 2010s, “Get Ready With Me” (GRWM) videos have been around for a while. However, since the advent of TikTok, reels featuring influencers getting dressed, drinking coffee, and doing their makeup have become one of the biggest trends on social media. But just why do we love GRWM reels so much?

Feel Closer to Your Favorite Content Creators

Bare-faced, sleep-rumpled, and yawning, first thing in the morning is when we are usually at our most vulnerable. And the same goes for the celebs and influencers we admire. GRWM reels give us an intimate insight into the daily lives and routines of our favorite content creators, showing them less filtered and polished than the usual ‘perfect’ standards we see on social media.

A Soothing Escape From Stress

Designed to be comforting, familiar, and repetitive, GRWM reels provide a soothing escape from the stresses of our own lives. For a minute, you can escape into someone else’s morning and watch them doing calming, mundane tasks like putting on moisturizer, sipping tea, and choosing which clothes to wear.

Be Inspired to Upgrade Your Own Morning Routine

And of course, you can’t watch GRWM reels without picking up a few tips. From which skincare products to buy and which new hairstyles to try, to a new yoga flow or matcha latte recipe, GRWM videos might influence you to change up your own morning routine.

Who would’ve thought that “aesthetics” would come so far on TikTok–to the point where it influences everything from someone’s fashion, lifestyle, and makeup looks? It feels like the “clean girl aesthetic” has reigned TikTok for a while now, so it’s only natural that a new look would come into the limelight. This time, the “vanilla girl aesthetic” is the winner. It seems like every girl on TikTok is recreating some version of this look, and it is totally trending now!

So, What is the Vanilla Girl Aesthetic?

Essentially, the vanilla girl aesthetic embodies all of the colors and coziness one associates with vanilla. We’re talking cream or light neutral colors, big cozy sweaters, and minimalist fashion. If you love knitwear and winter fashion, this is the aesthetic for you. 

This trend also emulates the clean girl aesthetic that is beloved by so many, with minimal makeup and sleek hairstyles. With more focus on naturally glowing skin and some color for your cheeks and lips, it encourages people to wear less makeup and embrace their natural beauty. If you want to be a vanilla girl all you have to do is throw on a comfy cream sweater, a glowy tinted moisturizer or serum, and a bit of lip gloss! Bonus points if you slouch your sweater down one shoulder!

We often turn to TikTok for beauty tricks, but the social media platform has a trend for just about everything—including food. Some were more miss than hit, but there were a couple that made it into our kitchens. Here’s what we ate in 2022.

Cloud Bread

If you decided to forgo carbs this year, you may have jumped onto the cloud bread trend. Made using eggs, sugar, cornstarch, and a touch of food coloring to make it pretty, the result is a bit like a Jigglypuff that tastes like cotton candy.

@abimhn cloud bread!!! dope recipe from @linqanaaa #cloudbread #MyBFF #foryou #fyp #bakingrecipe #homemade #homechef #clouds #avatar #cake #meringue ♬ Steven Universe – L.Dre

Salmon Rice Bowl

The salmon rice bowl works for a number of reasons. It is a great way to use up leftovers, the dish is a balanced meal with protein, carbs, and healthy fat, and it tastes like sushi without all the work. So grab your cooked salmon, rice, avocado, soy sauce, sriracha, kewpie mayonnaise, roasted seaweed sheets, and enjoy.

Butter Boards

Bread and butter are one of life’s simple food pleasures, so why wouldn’t we champion an entire board of butter that we can scoop up with crusty bread?! The beauty of the butter board is that you can let your tastebuds run wild by adding everything from chili to honey, to fruit and herbs.

We love to host and cook for our friends, but sometimes we’re uninspired by the usual food choices to put on our menu. One thing that never disappoints a crowd is a potato dish. If you’re looking for unique and delicious potato recipes to include at your next dinner party, the people of TikTok have you covered. Here are five of our favorite recipes that we’ve found.

Crunchy Smashed Potatoes

This recipe calls for mini potatoes. Boil the potatoes, and then smash them flat on a baking sheet and bake until crunchy. Sprinkle your favorite spices and serve with a fun dipping sauce for a yummy, crunchy experience.

@plantyou smashed potatoes are elite #potatoes #recipe #smashedpotatoes #food #healthyrecipe ♬ Made You Look – Meghan Trainor

Potato Bubble Pillows

Even better than tater tots, these potatoes are crispy on the outside and deliciously soft on the side. They are made by making dough with mashed potatoes, cornstarch, and flour. Deep fry them twice to get them to the intended crispiness and sprinkle them with flaky salt and chili powder.

@msshiandmrhe Creamy crunchy bubble potato pillows #cooking #foodasmr #asmrcooking #vegan #recipe #homecook #potato #foodtiktok #veganrecipes ♬ Let It Snow! Let It Snow! – Frank Sinatra

Crunchy Potato Sticks

These sticks are also made by making a type of dough, although this time, you’re using mashed potatoes, flour, and cheese. Place the dough in a bag, roll it flat, and throw it in the freezer for a while. Then, cut the dough into long sticks and deep fry them for a crunch you can hear from anywhere in the room.

@patrickzeinali Crunch so loud you can hear it from the back 🥔 🧀 #fypシ #potato #cheesesticks #easyrecipe #simplerecipe #crunchy #crispy #cheesy #patrickzeinali ♬ original sound – Patrick Zeinali

Crispy Parmesan Potatoes

These are simple and always delicious. Cut your potatoes in half and score them. Then, place them on a bed of oil, spices, and lots of parmesan cheese. In the oven, this mixture crisps up and sticks to the potatoes, making them cheesy, crunchy, and super tasty.

@simplefood4you Crispy parmesan potatoes🥔 #viral #recipe #cooking #foodie #foodtiktok #food #foryou #fyp ♬ corn but its a club anthem – felix cartal

Fifteen-Hour Potatoes

This dish definitely takes the longest but is well worth the effort. The fifteen-hour potato is made by slicing the potatoes extra thin, layering them, and baking, before placing them in the fridge overnight. In the morning, slice them in thick wedges and deep fry for an unexpectedly flaky and crispy bite every time.

The newest debate on Tik Tok is about nails. More specifically, which nail color will attract more men—red nails or any other color? The ‘red nail theory’ was actually spoken about earlier this year and was first brought up by GirlBossTown, where she posted about when she wore red nail polish she was hit on by more guys. Her theory is that she thought guys were attracted to red nails as they reminded them of their moms.

The other theory is that red equals passion and love, and is more attention-grabbing than another basic shade. This theory has been taken to heart by many TikTok creators who are painting their nails red and documenting their results.

Many celebrities and icons have worn vibrant reds on their nails, influencing others to try and find the same shade. Red nails are considered elegant and a great color to use in between the seasons, when summer colors are too light and bright and you can’t face a dark winter color.

Whether or not you totally agree with the ‘red nail theory’ if you are looking for love this winter season, why not paint your nails a glorious shade of red and see what happens.

If there is a new beauty trend you’ve heard of that sounds a little odd, chances are it originated on TikTok. Some of the hacks on the social media app range from brilliant to bizarre, with most falling somewhere in between. 

Users with oily skin are proclaiming the virtues of calamine lotion in their make-up routine. In case you are unfamiliar with the ointment, calamine is a pastel pink cream used to treat itchiness. Its most common use is for soothing chicken pox.

This new hack, however, involves applying calamine to one’s face, using either a beauty blender or make-up brush, prior to putting on foundation. Once the lotion is dry, makeup is applied directly over it.

The idea behind this technique is for the thick cream to repair acne scars and mattify the skin. It apparently also works as a fantastic primer, keeping make-up in place for at least 12 hours—even in the boiling summer heat. 

As fabulous as the trick sounds, experts have warned that users should beware. Calamine has the potential to damage the skin barrier if used in that fashion, and can actually worsen scars by irritating the skin. The drying out effect can also cause wrinkles and fine lines in the long run.
