was all the rage this month. This viral trend showcased users wiping a mirror to either reveal different, more fancy versions of themselves or another person in the shot with them.

The magic of this trend lies in the fact that the "reveal" could be so unexpected. The main lyric of the sound created a perfect verbal cue for the "wipe it down" action. In just 7 days this trend got over 11M views and 31K shares. The hashtag has over 4k creations to date.
