The top beauty trends and products of 2022
The year of 2022 is coming to a close, and boy has it been a big one when it comes to beauty.
From cult-favourite beauty products and viral beauty trends, TikTok has kept its finger on the pulse of culturally relevant beauty content like no other.
It’s given us recommendations for Dyson Airwrap dupes, Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter dupes, Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil dupes, Clinique Almost Lipstick Black Honey dupes, and Maison Francis Kurkdijan Baccarat Rouge 540 dupes — phew.
We’ve also received insights on how to properly use a gua sha, seen people literally pull pus from their face with pimple patches, and finessed a few claw clip hairstyles while we were at it.
It’s time to take a walk down memory lane — these are the top beauty trends and products of 2022, according to TikTok…

Briar Clark got her start in the media industry in 2017, as an intern for Marie Claire and InStyle. Since then, her keen interest in fashion and beauty has landed her gigs as a Digital Content Producer and Beauty Editor with titles like Girlfriend, Refinery29, BEAUTYcrew and beautyheaven. She loves the way seemingly innocuous topics like skin care and style have the ability to put a smile on people’s faces or make them think about themselves a little differently. A big believer in self love and experimentation, Briar has made a point of becoming the Australian beauty industry’s unofficial guinea pig for unusual treatments and daring hair trends. When she’s not testing out the latest beauty launches, Briar is big on broadening her horizons, mostly in the form of food but she’s also partial to travelling to new destinations both near and far (and of course, allocating an extra bag to bring their best beauty offerings home with her).
