Top 12 Skincare Influencers on TikTok in 2023

Whether you need a break in between meetings or you’re winding down for the evening, TikTok remains a great mental escape. You can find a little bit of everything — humor, news updates, funny pets, sweet newborn babies, home decor ideas, and our personal favorite: skincare advice.

We soak up anything-and-everything related to healthy, radiant skin, and we like to turn to the experts for their insights. In addition to following our co-founder Emily DiDonato for her skin tips, check out these ten inspiring and informative skincare TikTokers. 

1. Dr. Shah

♬ Wear Me Out (Instrumental Version) - Gamma Skies

 This professional dermatologist shares all his tips and tricks from a perspective you can trust. He covers practical skincare areas from how to gently cleanse your face to exact instructions on how to remove ticks. And, of course, he also makes fantastic TikTok reaction videos everyone loves. And by everyone, we mean a lot: he has over 9 million followers and counting.

Um… please wash your hands. #WashYourHands #PreSkincare #GoodHygiene

♬ original sound - yayayayoung

Truly, this male skincare Tiktoker influencer is absolutely hilarious. Not only does he have the standard skincare tips and tricks everyone loves, he does unique things too. Recently he did a face mask with breast milk (yep, breast milk.) And he shared a demonstration of why you need to wash your hands thoroughly before washing your face. All his videos have humor sprinkled throughout, and we can’t get enough.

3. Charlotte Palermino

I hope these alternatives are helpful if these products also didn’t work for you 🥰 #greenscreen #skincare #learnontiktok #tiktokpartner

♬ original sound - Ben Neiley

 To put it lightly, Ben Neiley is obsessed with all-things-skincare and health. The only thing he loves more than trying new formulas is sharing his vast knowledge with his growing fanbase. We love that he’s not afraid to go against the crowd and say what he doesn’t like about popular products. Plus, he gives helpful tips on how to tackle your own skincare issues — from acne to inflammation.
