34 Reviewer-Beloved "Internet Famous" Amazon Products
Fun fact: Amazon has an "Internet Famous" section curated with TikTok-viral products. Here are a few of the current ones so beloved by reviewers that they are *definitely* worth the hype:
A delightfully affordable instant foot peeling spray for anyone ready to go full YEEHAW!! on that at-home pedicure. This not only helps gently remove dead skin, but moisturizes dry and cracked heels, so you'll really get some refreshing bang for your buck.
Lumify Eye Drops, a product so beloved by TikTok that despite being more $$ than other brands, it's the number one selling brand on Amazon right now. Reviewers swear by this for instant reduction in redness in their eyes, with visible differences within a minute of use.
La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF 40 Tinted Sunscreen, aka the "holy grail" of tinted sunscreens — reviewers love this lightweight, buildable formula so much that a lot of them replaced their foundation with it altogether. If you're in the market for some subtle but effective coverage that won't get goopy or settle in pores, this is your sunscreen match made in heaven.
Lottabody's Coconut Oil Foaming Curl Mousse designed for all hair types to give you satisfyingly hydrated, volumized, frizz-free curls at a FRACTION of the price of its competitors.
The Ordinary's Multi-Depth Hydration Serum to achieve that "glassy," plumped effect *without* breaking the whole bank. This delightfully affordable, super effective serum helps hydrate and protect your skin barrier so you wake up with firm, refreshed skin.
A wildly beloved floral-forward vanilla perfume so deliciously perfect for summer that you'll be like, "Is it appropriate to bathe in this?" This sunny scent leans warm and tropical, with reviewers noting a hint of mango in the vanilla. It's all the bright happiness of summer in a soft, sophisticated, gourmand scent.
Monday Haircare Dry Shampoo with all the oil-absorbing, refreshing power of its competitors, *plus* added keratin for protection against frizz and breakage. The subtle gardenia scent is just extra extra credit after all that.
L'Oreal Paris Infallible 3-Second Setting Spray Mist so darn phenomenal at its job that one reviewer calls it "hairspray for your face," and several compare it to the $34 One/Size setting spray at triple the price. This ultra-fine formula sprays on lightly and leaves a natural finish, but just one spray is designed to LOCK IN your look for 36 hours.
Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener, which will be your holy grail for concealing and brightening dark circles under your eyes when your summer schedule is throwing you for a loop. This lightweight, color-adapting formula is designed for truly ~invisible~ coverage that makes a drastic difference — one that a lot of reviewers compare to the $33 Becca version.

E.l.f's Lash Xtndr Tubing Mascara, a GODSEND for anyone with thin or fragile lashes. This uses lightweight ~tubing~ technology to wrap around lashes and give them a natural-looking, smudge-proof extension so good it almost looks fake. The real boon, though, is how easily the "tubes" slide off in clean, easy swipes at the end of the day when you're washing your face — absolutely no smudging, over-scrubbing, or special eye makeup removal products required.
Yankee Candle's Midsummer's Night, or what I like to call a "goth summer candle," as a perfectly moody way to usher in the warmer weather if you're not a big fan of sweetness and floral. Reviewers compare this alluring blend of musk, patchouli, sage, and mahogany to a soft cologne.
A suuuper thin, breathable Hanes slub knit hoodie as the ultimate "just in case" layer on days when the weather is having an existential crisis and taking you for the ride.
Clinique Almost Lipstick Tinted Lip Balm in *PINK* Honey — aka, the sweet, subtle sister of the iconic "Black Honey" that has been so popular over the past few decades that it just about broke TikTok when it finally had its moment over there. The skin tone-matching, pH-adaptive pink version is every bit as buildable, polished, and decadent feeling as the original black honey, and perfect for everyday makeup looks.
Color Wow Xtra Large Bombshell Volumizer, a foam your can apply to your roots when you're styling to take your blowout to the next level, even when the humidity is doing its best to keep your locks down. Reviewers with fine hair especially swear by this for an immediate, long-lasting lift!
Jergens Natural Glow Firming Self Tanner Body Lotion to give you a gradually building, vacation-worthy ~sunkissed glow~ over the course of just a few days. Not only is this easy peasy to apply compared to other finickier, streaking lotions, but it's formulated with collagen and elastin to help your skin appear firmer *and* glowier.
A reviewer-beloved basic crewneck tee that plays nice with ALL your jeans and skirts, since it's just the right amount of compressive and easily slides under waistbands. Also, at that price point, and in THIS MANY colors??? Seems like it's Restock Your Wardrobe O'Clock.
A wildly popular hummingbird projection lantern to make your porch or backyard feel like you're stepping out of the real world and into a whimsical fairy tale.
A pair of oversize subtle cat-eye sunglasses so cute that you'll want to snag 'em in every color, and so affordable that you won't weep dollar signs if you accidentally leave them at the coffee shop.
A delightful little tool called the "Bug Bite Thing" — it suctions on all kinds of bug bites to reduce swelling, itchiness, and redness.
Medicube's "Zero Pore" Pads, which are dual-textured toner pads made with lactic and salicylic acid to exfoliate and refine your pores. The excess sebum in your face just met its worst enemy in this cult-fave Korean skincare product. 😈

Vitamin C Face Serum that packs a powerful punch — reviewers swear by this for reducing dark spots, brightening skin, restoring tone, and giving skin a more radiant, firm look.

This lightweight formula is designed to brighten and plump skin for a dewy effect, whether you're wearing it alone, applying it under your makeup, or mixing it with your foundation.
A set of golden tennis bracelets giving ~quiet luxury~ vibes at "I want to pay rent this month" prices. Reviewers especially love these mix-and-match sets because they look like expensive versions from iconic brands!
Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Anti-Frizz Serum, aka humidity's WORST ENEMY. 😈 This super lightweight argan oil solution is designed for all hair types to help manage frizz and define waves and curls without weighing them down, and will be the MVP in your hair arsenal in the warmer temps.
Differin Acne Treatment Gel for prescription-strength acne care *without* the hassle of paying to see a dermatologist.

The key to this is patience, patience, patience — a lot of reviewers mention seeing excellent results after the first month of use!
Neutrogena Dry-Touch SPF 70 Sunscreen designed specifically for people who get the "ick" from oily sunscreens but need all the sun protection they can get.

Parents feel ‘fambushed' by teens — who are tracking their every move
It was supposed to help parents sleep at night — now it's their kids who won't leave them alone. Thanks to family-tracking apps like Life360, a new generation of teens has turned the tables on their parents, using the digital leash meant for safety to spy, stalk and score snacks. The trend has been dubbed 'fambushing,' a mashup of 'family' and 'ambushing,' and parents say it's ruining their peace, their privacy — and their queso. Advertisement 3 Family-tracking apps like Life360 were made to keep teens safe — but now the kids are flipping the script, using them to stalk, snoop, and snag snacks on demand. JRstock – 'I can never run errands in peace,' wrote mom Nicole DeRoy in a recent TikTok clip, where she revealed her teen now tracks her every move. 'POV: you downloaded Life360 when your teen started driving to make sure they were safe, but now they track your every move,' she wrote. Advertisement Some moms are even getting surprise visits while dining out. 'When your daughter stalks your location and sees that you're out eating Mexican food,' Chrysta captioned her TikTok video — which documents her daughter stopping by the restaurant. 'I hate Life360.' Jayme Beecher Crosby got hit with the ultimate chip heist when her teen daughter showed up at her restaurant table and helped herself. Advertisement 'When your daughter tracks you on Life 360 & shows up to steal chips/salsa and water,' she wrote. According to Life360, teens — especially the driving-age crowd — now open the app 25% more often than their parents and set 70% more 'Place Alerts,' turning everyday errands into opportunities for freebies or family ambushes. And Gen Z, the first generation of true digital natives, isn't stopping there. Advertisement Between Snap Map and iPhone's location sharing, many teens know where everyone is, all the time — and they're not shy about pulling up. ''Safe' is the number one term that comes to mind for 66% of Gen Z respondents when thinking about location sharing,' Lauren Antonoff, Life360's COO, told Parents. 'Eighty-seven percent of Gen Z respondents said they use the technology for long-distance driving, 80% when visiting new or dangerous places, 77% when going to an event, concert, or festival, and 78% when they are going to party or on a date.' Antonoff adds, '72% of Gen Z women believe their physical well-being benefits from location sharing.' 3 Life360 says teens — especially the ones with car keys — are checking the app 25% more than their folks and setting 70% more Place Alerts to turn errands into ambush ops. sdx15 – Still, even the experts admit this digital snooping can go too far — especially when it's the kids playing parent. 'When teens track their parents and show up unannounced to ask for things like Starbucks or rides, it can blur the line between connection and control,' pediatrician and mom Dr. Mona Amin told the outlet. Advertisement 'If a parent were tracking a teen this way — constantly checking in or popping up — we'd probably call it helicopter parenting.' 'The key is making sure there are agreed-upon boundaries and that teens still learn how to ask, not just access,' Dr. Amin added. 'Parents are people too — and teaching that early helps foster mutual respect.' As previously reported by The Post, nearly nine in 10 Americans say sharing their location actually makes life better — at least according to Life360, the tracking app with 80 million users and counting. Advertisement However, there are still caveats. Connecticut mom Jennifer Long had no problem tracking her teens on Life360 — until the tables turned. 3 If the roles were reversed, and Mom was popping up unannounced? Experts say we'd call it what it is — classic helicopter parenting. Synthex – Advertisement When her daughters spotted she was 'getting some aesthetic work done,' the flustered mama slammed the digital door, blocking them from following her every move. 'It's really more about me watching their safety,' she told The Post. So next time you sneak out for margaritas? Maybe go airplane mode.

TikTok's Owner Wanted to Publish Books. Not Anymore.
When 8th Note Press launched in the summer of 2023, the small publisher had a big advantage over other new presses. It was started by the Chinese technology company ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, the wildly popular social media platform where viral endorsements can transform books into best sellers overnight. That was not enough, it seems, to build a successful publishing business. In late May, 8th Note Press began informing writers that it was shutting down and returning publication rights to the authors. News of the press's demise, which was reported earlier by the The Bookseller, came as a shock to authors who were swayed by the possibility that 8th Note could help engineer best sellers with elaborate marketing campaigns on TikTok. Instead, 8th Note has started taking down digital editions of their books, effectively unpublishing them. The literary agent Mark Gottlieb, who sold the debut novel 'To Have and Have More' to 8th Note, said the company was doing 'irreparable damage' to its authors by shutting down so haphazardly. While publishing imprints frequently come and go, the books and authors they publish are usually moved elsewhere within the parent company, rather than being taken out of circulation entirely. If a book is published then quickly disappears, it can be difficult to resell it to another publisher, Gottlieb said. 'They're wrecking careers in the process of doing this,' he said of 8th Note. 'If you're an author and this is your first book, what the history is going to show is that your book published and quickly went out of print.' 8th Note's precipitous fall was surprising, given its parent company's vast resources and reach. Just last year, the press seemed poised to expand. Last October, its executives announced a partnership with the publisher Zando to put out print editions of its books and distribute them to physical bookstores. The plan was to release 10 to 15 titles a year, with a focus on romance, romantasy and young adult fiction. Later, the imprint indicated to agents that it was expanding into science fiction and fantasy. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
