Hey, TikTok enthusiasts! It's your girl here, bringing you the lowdown on all things trending from the TikTok Shop. If you're anything like me, TikTok isn't just an app; it's a daily ritual that somehow convinces you to hit that "buy" button more often than you'd like to admit. So, I've amassed a little collection of TikTok-induced purchases over the last few months, and I'm here to spill the tea on whether they're worth your hard-earned cash!

First up, we're diving into some delectable chocolates from Wicked Bolds. I'm a total sucker for a good backstory and clean ingredients, which is exactly what drew me to this brand. They're a charming family-owned business since 2019, and each letter of their logo represents a family member – how cute is that? Their organic dark chocolate, with just four pristine ingredients, promised a guilt-free indulgence.

I sampled three flavors: classic dark, hazelnut, and cayenne pepper. The dark chocolate was heavenly, with just the right pinch of sea salt to make my mouth water without being overpowering. However, the hazelnut didn't leave much of an impression – it was too similar to the classic dark for my liking. And the cayenne? Let's just say it was a fiery adventure that was a bit too intense for my taste. But hey, it might just be your cup of tea (or bar of chocolate) if you're into spicy treats!

Next, we've got the automatic scrubber. This gadget started as a "Do I really need this?" and quickly turned into a "How did I ever live without this?" moment. It comes with different head attachments and an extendable handle, making cleaning less of a chore and more of a breeze – literally, stand and scrub! As a busy mom, this tool has been a game-changer, saving my back and time. It’s so good; I'm even planning to gift it to my mom and mother-in-law for Christmas!

On the beauty front, I decided to test out the viral body oils from Soothing House. With intriguing scents like Coconut Cream Pie and Strawberry Shortcake, I was eager to see if they lived up to the hype. While the oils themselves made my skin feel silky smooth, the undisclosed "fragrance oils" listed in the ingredients were a bit of a red flag for me. They smelled delightful but knowing what's actually in the products you use is important, right? So, while they do the job, I'm not sure I'd repurchase without more transparency from the brand.

And because I can't resist a sweet treat, I also snagged some candy from Langley Tea Farms. Each flavor – piña colada, orange dream, and blue raspberry – was like a throwback to childhood with a deliciously modern twist. Supporting small businesses while indulging my sweet tooth? Yes, please!

So, were these viral TikTok buys worth it? Mostly yes! While some products like the spicy chocolate and the body oils weren't a total hit, others, like the automatic scrubber and the candies, were definite winners in my book. It’s all about trying new things and finding what works for you – and maybe finding some unexpected favorites along the way.
