Top TikTok Trends (December 2025)

TikTok is one of the largest social media platforms in the world.

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.

How We Find Top Current TikTok Trends

This list has been put together using the TikTok Insights tool from Exploding Topics. We have sorted by growth in views over the past 30 days.

TikTok Insights is a powerful tool for planning your TikTok content. As well as this master list, you can filter by topics or search by specific hashtags.

You can also change the reference period to 7 days, to get access to trends which are only just starting to explode. And as well as views growth, you can sort by total views, posts growth, and total posts.

When you find a topic of interest, you can expand it for more details. You can even view the top-performing related TikToks directly from within the tool.

That Sound Game used Exploding Topics Pro to analyze TikTok trends, leading to a viral launch campaign and more than 400,000 sales in under 3 years.

Here are a few of the most interesting TikTok trends from the list above, along with an insight into why they’re trending. The total posts figure is based on the number of videos posted under the specific named hashtag (e.g. #showersteamers).

1. Shower Steamers

5-year search growth: 368%

Search growth status: Regular

Total TikTok Posts: 21.2K

Description: Shower steamers are tablets or balls designed to release a pleasant odor when they dissolve in the shower. Their growth in popularity ties into the idea of an "everything shower", with notions of luxury and self-care that were traditionally reserved for baths now extending into shower routines. Search interest is highly seasonal, as shower steamers are viewed as highly giftable items. The seasonal surge in TikTok views also suggests a potentially high volume of sales on TikTok Shop over the holiday period. Across the board, TikTok Shop grossed $500 million in the US across the 4 days from Thanksgiving to Cyber Monday.

2. Kojic Acid Serum

5-year search growth: 871%

Search growth status: Exploding

Total TikTok Posts: 2.3K

Description: A skin-lightening product used to treat conditions such as hyperpigmentation. Derived from fermenting rice or soybeans, kojic acid is also used in rice wine, soy sauce, and miso paste, but it has found popularity in the world of skincare. Top TikTok posts about kojic acid have received more than 300,000 likes, and the serum specifically is now taking off as a trending topic.

3. Insect Dog Food

5-year search growth: 365%

Search growth status: Exploding

Total TikTok Posts: 100

Description: Dog food that uses insects as the primary protein source. Insects have long been cited as an underused source of protein, with potential environmental and sustainability benefits. Bugs have started to enter more human diets as well, but their unconventional nature as a food source (at least to Western consumers) means some may be more inclined to make the switch for their pets. While the number of posts specifically using the #insectdogfood hashtag remains low, growth in posts about the topic over the past 30 days have been rapid. This is exactly the sort of early-stage trend opportunity that you can surface with TikTok Insights.

4. Chondroitin Gummies

5-year search growth: 5,800%

Search growth status: Exploding

Total TikTok Posts: 4.4K*

Description: Another very early trend, chondroitin gummies are believed to support joint health. The dietary supplements are supposed to slow down the breakdown of cartilage, and can reduce pain and swelling. Around 54 million people in the US have arhritis, and one study has found that this estimate may be too low.

*Total posts under the "chondroitin" hashtag, as opposed to chondroitin gummies specifically.

5. Portable Gaming Monitor

5-year search growth: 192%

Search growth status: Exploding

Total TikTok Posts: 400

Description: A high-resolution screen designed specifically for gaming that can be folded or packed away and taken on the go. There are around 3.3 billion gamers worldwide, and there is an increasing desire to maintain the quality of the experience when away from home. Elite handheld devices like those from Ayaneo are enjoying a similar rise in interest.

6. Fridge Deodorizer

5-year search growth: 42%

Search growth status: Regular

Total TikTok Posts: 527

Description: Device designed to absorb unwanted smells in the fridge, using substances like activated charcoal or baking soda. Fridge deodorizers are exactly the kind of low-cost, clear-use household goods that tend to enjoy success on TikTok Shop (even if video cannot convey the benefits of odor-removing products in the same way as it can with other cleaning items and appliances). Total US sales on TikTok Shop hit $19 billion in Q3 2025.

7. Mushroom Coffee

5-year search growth: 813%

Search growth status: Exploding

Total TikTok Posts: 102.1K

Description: One of the bigger trends on this list in terms of existing volume of TikTok content, mushroom coffee refers to coffee blends with mushroom mixed in for perceived health benefits. The exact benefits vary based on the type of mushroom used, but can include calm and focus. Top-selling mushroom coffees on Amazon generate over $2 million per month.

8. Phone Wrist Strap

5-year search growth: 545%

Search growth status: Exploding

Total TikTok Posts: 683

Description: Mobile accessory used to keep the phone connected to the user's wrist for added safety and security. Coming in a range of colors and designs, they also provide further customization opportunities.
