When tales of the SolaWave's staple status for celebrities like Lil Nas X and Sydney Sweeney started surfacing in winter 2022, the internet had to try it. Temperature is displayed on the LED screen as well as the app, and can be tweaked or turned off completely from anywhere.

Here are our favorite products that have gone viral since the start of the year - without creating a controversy like Pink Sauce, that is. Naturally, though, 2022 is seeing its own slew of products that have gained the attention of doomscrollers. Items that got their big break in 2021 are still consistently reeling in stans, like the ChomChom, which has yet to die down on PetTok, or the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter, which is still hard to find in stock.

While some types of viral posts are exclusive to their respective platforms, a ton of products that popped off on TikTok are also big on Facebook or Instagram. But amidst the tarot pulls taking over one person's page and the dogs testing enrichment toys on another, one thing is all but guaranteed to show up: a viral product.
