We sieved out the best TikTok #lifehacks to make your life easier

When the internet brings us a clever idea that will help us be more efficient in life, like this garlic peeling hack, we strive to share them with you so you don't feel burnout from hustling too hard.

TikTok has become a popular video sharing platform for people to perform tricks, show off their skills and creativity in under 15 seconds. 

Apart from being a source of entertainment, TikTok users have been sharing life-changing tips with the massively used #LifeHacks hashtag on the app, garnering over 220 million views worldwide. 

We went through the videos and found these hacks to be time-saving and useful for our everyday life:

1. ADD VINEGAR WHEN BOILING EGGS TO PEEL EASIER

Now you'll have perfect hard boiled eggs that don't have holes in them from trying to get it off the shell.

2. REGROW VEGETABLES AT HOME

Next time you have lettuce, cabbage, celery and bok choy, don't throw out the scraps.

Save money and regrow the vegetables by submerging the ends and you have your very own mini home vegetable farm. 

3. NO BOWL FOR YOUR CEREAL, NO PROBLEM

For all you lazy people out there, we've got your back. 

This is great if you intend to go through the entire box of cereal in one sitting.

5. CURL YOUR HAIR WITH A WATER BOTTLE

Who needs a Dyson Airwrap when a water bottle and hairdryer does the job in curling your hair. 

All you have to do is cut the top of the bottle and make an insertion at the side that is wide enough for the hairdryer.

6. DOG SHOWER HACK

Bathing my dog is the bane of both our existence. He hates water and can never sit still, and I hate getting completely drenched while showering him.

I'm going to try this peanut butter on the wall hack to keep him distracted and see if it works.

7. WATERPROOF SHOES WITH A CANDLE

There's no need to be scared of the recent erratic downpours, or at least you don't have to be scared your shoes will get soaked, as you can simply waterproof it with a candle. 

8. SWEEP LIKE A PRO

The woe of sweeping the floor is trying to get the dust and strands of hair to stay in the dustpan.

If for some reason you're still using a broom instead of a vacuum cleaner, this smart hack solves the problem if you stick tape to the end of the brush.  

9. CLOTHES-FOLDING HACK TO SAVE WARDROBE SPACE

You'll take more time getting prepped when your wardrobe is cluttered with messy clothes.

This nifty clothes-folding trick will keep your t-shirts tightly folded while saving space in your wardrobe.

FAKE HACKS

Of course, in the name of fun, not every video shared on TikTok was useful.

Some hacks were called out as fake, such as the video on how to test if your food is real or fake, as seen below. 

Have good sense and still have fun while scanning through the TikTok lifehack videos, and share with us what other hacks you swear by!
