In fact, with over 1.9 billion monthly active users, TikTok is the 5th-largest social media site.
Since its fairly humble beginnings as a dance app, TikTok is now a staple for content about business, fashion, self-care, fitness, and much more. It's also a social commerce powerhouse.

1. Night Mask
5-year search growth: 161%
Search growth status: Exploding
Total TikTok views (last 30 days): 21.2 million
Description: Night masks are wearable skincare treatments designed to be applied to the face before bed. Unlike normal skincare masks, they're designed to stay on overnight, stimulating increased hydration and repair.
As one of the fastest-climbing trends on TikTok in the last 30 days, night masks are a potentially intriguing opportunity for TikTok affiliates and E-commerce businesses. Over on Amazon, top sellers sell more than 30K units per month.
2. Dog Joint Supplements
5-year search growth: 117%
Search growth status: Exploding
Total TikTok views (last 30 days): 513,500
Description: Dog joint supplements help to support canine mobility and comfort, especially in older pets. Sold in the form of chews, tablets, or powders, the supplements contain ingredients like glucosamine and chondroitin to stimulate cartilage repair.
As Gen Z "pet parents" seek to give their furry friends human-grade care, many health and wellness verticals have successfully crossed from one species to another. The pet supplement market is worth an estimated $2.9 billion.
3. Shelf Label
5-year search growth: 233%
Search growth status: Exploding
Total TikTok views (last 30 days): 771,500
Description: A shelf label is a simple home organization product allowing people to clearly mark where household items belong. Popular in children's bedrooms, they are also increasingly being used as a tidiness hack.
Shelf labels are exactly the kind of low-cost, clear-use household product that tends to enjoy success on TikTok Shop, with short-form video a perfect medium for showcasing the benefits.
4. Hard Water Shampoo
5-year search growth: 562%
Search growth status: Exploding
Total TikTok views (last 30 days): 1.2 million
Description: Hard water shampoo (or chelating shampoo) contains special ingredients designed to remove excess mineral deposits from hair. Calcium, magnesium and other heavy metals can easily build up over time when you live in a hard-water area, potentially damaging long-term hair health.

Search growth status: Regular
Total TikTok views (last 30 days): 11.9 million

Search growth status: Exploding
Total TikTok views (last 30 days): 214,900

5-year search growth: 86%
Search growth status: Regular
Total TikTok views (last 30 days): 186,600
