The latest viral TikTok trend involves applying intimate lubricant to the face as a primer, supposedly to get a glowing complexion.

While they're certainly innovative, most of the tips found on TikTok are safe for users to try. At worst, they're ineffective, and they most often involve natural ingredients or techniques. However, that's not always the case. Some users -- no doubt convinced they've found the genius idea that will put them in the spotlight -- offer tips and tricks that are definitely new, but which aren't without risk for the rest of the community.

How on Earth did users of the social network come to apply intimate lubricant to their faces? Do we really want to know? Irrespective, the fact remains that videos on the subject are multiplying at speed, stirring the curiosity of TikTokers who are in turn experimenting. The idea involves applying lube to your face, or mixing it with your foundation, to use it as a makeup base or primer.

The scale of the phenomenon is such -- with more than 9.9 million views for the "lubeprimer" hashtag -- that some have begun to speak out against this hack, which can cause acne , as well as irritation, redness and even allergies. Not to mention that this type of product should not come into contact with eyes.

The best thing to do is to keep intimate lubricants for their primary function, and invest in a 'real' base or primer to get a glowing complexion, or in a serum suited to your skin type.
