Tired: regular mirror selfies. Wired: the mirror challenge photo trend. Don’t like it? Blame social media. What started as a quick little video on TikTok has become a huge Instagram trend. Rather than taking the classic mirror selfie at home (You know the one: posing in front of a full-length mirror, phone in hand.), people are getting majorly creative—taking their mirrors outdoors or using smaller mirrors to capture their image. It just goes to show what can happen when “Instagram boyfriends” or BFFs aren’t around to take all the photos during trips to a coffee shop. Influencers are having to think outside of the box to create content for their social media platforms—and we’re honestly loving it.
If anyone decides to come for influencers citing a lack of creativity, they can catch! These! Hands! Sure, not every single content creator has the most unique aesthetic in the world, but there are a ridiculous number of influencers who are constantly thinking of innovative and creative ideas to promote their content—whether it be outfits, beauty products, fitness or home decor. (That list goes on and on.) The #mirrorchallenge is just another way these content creators are finding ways to keep things fresh even when they can’t leave the house. We stan.

You can dress up and have a solo photoshoot in your backyard—Anyone else obsessed with the palm trees in the above photo?!—or keep it chill and take some selfies with you and a roommate or partner with whom you’re stuck at home. Honestly, the selfie stick could never.
