Annemarie Rose is bent over a sheet of glass, hair tucked into a messy half ponytail, tracing the outline of a heart into its glossy surface. She breaks it apart, sands the edges, and etches a simple message across its smooth surface: spit in my mouth. \u201cSomething hot for Valentine’s Day,\u201d the description reads on her TikTok video.<\/p>\n

Commenters go wild, a chorus of desire filling the section. \u201cWHERE CAN I BUY,\u201d writes one enthusiastic viewer with a grip on their caps lock. Another helpfully adds a backstory: \u201cI NEED THIS because I got blocked for telling my crush to spit in my mouth and pull my hair so sad.\u201d Back in the real world, a dumbfounded Annemarie watches as the numbers on her video skyrocket. Refresh. 100 new followers. Refresh. 500 more. As of late June, the video is sitting around 954,000 views, with her account up from a few hundred followers to over 10,000.<\/p>\n

For Annemarie, virality translated to more than just views and comments. She had a surge of interest in her work as potential customers began lining up. In one day, she said 2,000 people joined her mailing list, a number her subscriptions in total had never touched. \u201cThe effect of that one video was really powerful for my business,\u201d she said. When she opened pre-orders for mirrors, including the cheeky \u201cspit in my mouth\u201d version, she says they sold out in 18 minutes (a fact I can personally attest to after failing to buy one). <\/p>\n
