One thing that’s great about TikTok shop is the sheer variety of creators, specialising in categories in everything from makeup, plus size fashion, food and beverages, tools and tech with people from all ages, backgrounds and cultures able to find their niche and audience. It’s what’s made the platform a great place to shop as you can buy from people you can relate to and fell like you know.

If you had cystic acne wouldn’t you much prefer to buy from someone who also suffers with it and can show a noticeable difference from using a product as opposed to celebrities who are paid to promote it? Of course you would. 

What is worrying is that people are creating AI characters to sell products to a particular audience.  This creator is not only showing people how to do it but even how to make women look younger https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNRyMSP1a/
This is problematic not only in that takes away from genuine creators (especially in the mature beauty category) but that the products they are advertising, they have no idea if they actually work or benefit women in any way as they have never even seen or touched the physical products.

It’s really great to see so many new and long standing creators speaking out about the use of AI and the future of the platform https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNRyUQNBC/ make your you repost these videos and always leave a supportive comment in order to boost them.

Even videos highlighting both sides of the argument are important in getting the subject talked about. When you see these types of videos make sure you direct people to the petition.

We are so grateful for your support and if you can please share the petition on your social media channels and ask those around you to sign as well it would be greatly appreciated.
