As Mamamia's beauty editor and one of the co-hosts of You Beauty podcast (including Tried and Tested on Wednesday with the lovely Emily Vernem), I've slapped a lot of stuff on my face/hair/body/nails/elbows this year. Some of it has been… not so good (rice paper face mask, I'm looking at you). However, there are some viral hacks that have genuinely been really worth trying.
It's the kind of stuff that's found its way into my normal beauty routine and either made things cheaper, easier, quicker or just… better.
Watch: Speaking of hacks, here's the time I put lube on my face to see if it acted the same as primer. Check out my thoughts below.
So, in celebration of the year that was, I rounded up the best viral beauty trends I tried this year, in case you want to give them a go for yourself.
Below, you'll find all the best very beauty trends I tried in 2024 — along with the ones that didn't go... great.
