20 Under-$40 Swimsuits Going Viral On TikTok To Kickstart Your Hot Girl Summer
Are you ready to play mermaids?
The sun has been already blazing and it’s not even summer yet. And, there’s no better medicine for all this heat than hitting up the beach, pool, or even just your front lawn to start letting those tan lines set in. But, picking out a swimsuit is always such a pain. You want one that makes you feel like a million bucks and is comfortable enough to make it through whatever summer activities you have planned. Luckily, you can always rely on TikTok for pretty much any and all advice. Already trending, these TikTok-recommended swimsuits will have you so ready for your hot girl summer.
Everyone needs and deserves at least one reliable swimsuit. Whether you’re a ride-or-die poolside lounger or going to the beach is your brand, you should have a swimsuit or two that you can rely on. And with summer on the way, there’s no time like the present to ensure you get one you’ll love from TikTokers’ fave bikinis and one-piece bathing suits.
There are a few things that have TikTok creators falling in love with these swimsuits. Of course, they look tempting, but everyone needs more than that. Some are beloved for being super sturdy, the kind you can wear while taking on a few waves. Others are better for more of a lounge-y, lay-out-under-a-beach-umbrella-with-a-book kind of day.

She also highlighted how the bottoms are full-coverage, too, and easy to style however you like.

Preppy Bikini
If you’re not too worried about support and wanna show off a little under boob, @pluspasticsx recommends Blooming Jelly’s Cutout High Waisted Suit ($29, Amazon). However, be forewarned that this is more of a “laying out” bikini that a bodysurfing one.

Ruche City
I can’t say no to a three-in-one product, it’s simply not in my power, especially when it comes to MakeMeChic’s Halter Bikini ($36, Amazon). The fit is just like any other classic triangle swimsuit, so you know you can’t go wrong. The mesh dress, cover-up also allows you to show off your bikini once you ditch the beach.

A Flouncy, Flirty, Fun Bikini Top
“This set has the best bottoms. I bought this set mainly just for the bottoms, but I really think the top is cute too,” Stephanie Johnson, a fashion and beauty TikToker, said about Tempt Me’s Off The Shoulder Bathing Suit ($33, Amazon). The last thing you want is a pair of bottoms that’ll abandon you at the first sign of waves or only last a year before getting too stretched out. Now, you know your Tempt Me bikini bottoms would never do that to you.
Get your sunblock and wide-brimmed hat, because you’re going to need to hit the pool ASAP after getting one of these swimsuits.
