Deinfluencing: TikTok trend discourages purchase of products that go viral

You know that foundation that went viral with hundreds of beauty reviews on social media? Or a gloss that promeenlarge your lips? Are they really all that? Maybe so - but often, they aren't. A TikTok trend is discouraging the purchase of products that gain prominence on the internet: it is the hashtag #deinfluencing, which has more than 588 million views.

Style videos de-influencing consist of honest beauty reviews about products that have gone viral on TikTok or on other platforms. Often, these items were widely publicized by digital influencers – which also raises awareness about false advertising. Some videos also reinforce the importance of evaluating a purchase clearly, and not just making it on impulse.

The new trend goes against the hashtag #TikTokMadeMeBuyIt, which has more than 53 billion views on the social network. There, users share their purchases influenced by content published on the platform.

But… We also have the other side of the coin. The most popular and beloved influencers and content creators on the internet have always talked about things they like and don't like. For this reason, there are those who raise the idea that the trend ends up influencing the viewer, anyway.
