Video-sharing app TikTok saw a great surge in its users in the past few years, especially during the coronavirus pandemic, when people have mostly been staying home and connecting online. The social media platform is a one-stop shop for discovering viral challenges, dance crazes, funny clips, cute animals, and so much more.

One popular topic on social media is health and beauty. It's no wonder beauty influencers have been flocking to the platform to share their routines. If there's one place people go to for all the latest beauty trends--aside from lifestyle websites--it's TikTok.

What makes TikTok beauty tutorials uniquely different from most YouTube tutorials is how they're shorter in length and can capture the audience's attention longer. They also tend to be a lot more playful and creative.

Take a look at some of the beauty influencers who are currently making a name on TikTok. We rounded up a few of our favorite skincare influencers you should absolutely check out on TikTok.

Check out the best of 2020's online trends in this photo gallery:

One beauty influencer is Hyram (@skincarebyhyram), with 6.8 million followers and over 255 million likes. His videos always go viral because of his matter-of-fact take on famous brands and debunking unrealistic skincare trends.

Hyram is also an empowering figure for people battling skin conditions and is a self-confessed "shameless skincare junkie." He's also been featured by Cosmopolitan UK for his knowledge in skincare products.

Every person has their own skin type and specific needs. So it's best to listen to a dermatologist's advice when it comes to dealing with skin issues. Take Dr. Shah, (@DermDoctor) for instance. He's a licensed skin doctor who teaches step-by-step ways to achieve healthier skin and warns people of fake experts using edited videos to show "miracle" products.

While TikTok is a great resource for the latest beauty trends these days, consulting a doctor or a professional is still best. An expert opinion about your skin issues and the proper treatments that can work best for you should be your main skin goal for 2021 and the years ahead.
