February 2023 TikTok Trends Part 2: Meredith Makeup, Teenager Filter, Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny + More!

Dena and Catalina are joined by special guest and dear friend Ashley Yalof (@ashleyrosayy) this week to discuss the latest trends and Ashley’s side of the Tik Tok algorithm! After a little chat about their weeks (Happy Birthday Dena!) they dive into their guest’s area of expertise: makeup and beauty content. Ashley walks them through the Meredith trend by Meredith Duxbury with the help of @Kaylajaye_, they debate the results of the teenager filter, and she educates them on the parameters of a lip flip. Next, the group hears from @emmatainment on how to check their one star Uber ratings and describe the Ancestors trend, featuring videos from @e_nj_k , @emmevv, and @thecampaigngirl. The group discusses the debut of Tik Tok Trivia before turning to the topic of misinformation and what we think of the East Palestine train crash content circulating on the platform. Finally, the sting of a potential Kendall Jenner/Bad Bunny pairing, summarized by @blakelythornton, is alleviated by the comedy of @massmandato.

February 2023 TikTok Trends: BORGS, De-Influencing + More!

Dena and Catalina discuss February’s TikTok trends! They dive in by talking about Dena securing Beyonce tickets, Catalina’s Lord Farquaad haircut (sadly not part of the TikTok hair prank), and Catalina finally making the famous feta pasta a year too late. Next, they turn to some food and drink trends: French Onion Pasta is taking off thanks to @carolbeecooks, and BORGS, or black out rage gallons, are all the rage on the platform. We hear from @bellaaalonzo, who explains how to make a BORG, and @erin.monroe who tells us why Gen-Z has the right idea with these drinks. De-influencing has been huge on TikTok lately and Catalina and Dena agree with @michelleskidelsky when it comes to her take on body wash, lounge wear, make up, and iPads. Dupes are another popular trend that @wilsonolivia69 has their own spin on, as does the Whole Foods TikTok account @wholefoodsmarket. Lastly, (TW) the audio trend with lyrics “I try not to kill myself” by @e.m.o..1 has been popular on FYPs, used by creators who explain embarrassing situations like @rachelhasibs, @officialheathergdawg, and @asully331.
