# The Labubu Phenomenon: Understanding Your Daughters' Interest

## Introduction
As a parent trying to understand your teenage daughters' fascination with Labubu, you're witnessing what has become a significant cultural phenomenon in the world of collectible toys.

Labubu, a character and brand of collectible plush toy monster elves created by Hong Kong designer Kasing Lung and marketed by Pop Mart (a Chinese toy company), has captured the attention of young people worldwide, including celebrities like Rihanna.

This report will help you understand what Labubu is, why it has become so popular, and how social media platforms like TikTok have fueled this trend.

## What is Labubu?

Labubu is a series of collectible figurines featuring distinctive monster elf characters with a "classic smile" and "exquisite color matching" that makes each character unique.

These toys are part of the broader "blind box" trend popularized by Pop Mart, where consumers purchase a sealed box without knowing which specific character they'll get inside.

One particularly popular series is the Labubu Constellation Series, which features characters designed to represent different zodiac signs.

For example, the Gemini character uses black and white coloring to express the duality of that sign, while the Sagittarius features vibrant colors to depict its adventurous personality.

These collections also include rare "hidden" versions, like the "Super Star COWAWA," which become highly sought after by collectors.

## The Blind Box Business Model
Pop Mart has revolutionized the toy industry with its blind box marketing strategy.

According to market data, approximately 200,000 consumers spend around NT$10,000 (approximately $330 USD) annually on blind box purchases.

This business model creates a sense of anticipation and excitement, as collectors never know which character they'll receive.

The rarity of certain figures, especially the "hidden" versions, drives secondary market prices significantly higher than the origina

The Fast Fashion Laser-Point: Targeting You

Words by Amy Wild

In today’s busy world of rampant consumerism and throw-away-fashion it’s hard to make the right decisions about sustainability when buying clothes.

It probably won’t surprise you that Generation Z and Millennials are more active than older generations in addressing climate change, income inequity and poverty on and offline. Seventy percent of 16-19-year-olds agree that sustainability is an important factor when purchasing fashion items comparing to just 20% of 65-to 74-year-olds [Mintel, UK Fashion and Sustainability Market Report 2021]. However, this is increasingly ironic as Gen Z is also undeniably the biggest consumer of fast fashion.

It’s funny to think that our generation has produced both Greta Thunberg, the climate change activist who excoriates the fashion industry, and also Love Island’s Molly-Mae Hague, who recently signed a seven-figure deal with ultra-low-cost fast-fashion brand PrettyLittleThing.

It is without a doubt that the rise of fast fashion is intertwined with the rise of social media and its influencers. The newly formed influencer culture has resulted in the inability to repeat an outfit (both in person but especially seen online), as well as the unnecessary and wasteful purchases of every new garment to remain on-trend. The rise of TikTok has made fashion trends come and go faster than ever.

Before, trends were only created by A-list celebrities and designers, eventually trickling down to the general public through the high street shops. But now, almost anyone can create a trend, as the ability to reach millions of people online in mere minutes, generates micro-trends in their thousands and thousands.

It’s great for consumers that there is now such a variety in fashion, that tastes are becoming more diverse, and that clothing options are no longer so heavily limited to a singular style. But it’s the sheer speed at which these new trends die out which is terrifying. Think about how quickly the satin pink/green Zara dress became popular through TikTok but probably won’t be worn for any of the next balls. I saw that dress six times when working at end-of-year balls, but it probably won’t be worn again because it will be far too popular and therefore last season.

Brands respond to fast-changing trends by manufacturing clothes more and more rapidly. This results in designs that are lazy. To lower the costs of making clothes, cheap polyester is chosen, which consists of plastic and releases a larger number of emissions than cotton would do. These microplastics then end up in the human food chain, causing harmful effects to our health. So fast fashion isn’t just damaging to the environment its damaging to us, as a species, as well.

Disposable fashion has knock-on effects, too. Low-priced and on-demand fashion means that it’s more or less cheaper to buy new clothes from Primark than it is to wash your clothes in Circuit Laundry. In the UK, it is estimated that a garment is worn on average only fourteen times before it is thrown away. Brands are purposefully manufacturing clothes designed not to last: it’s planned obsolescence.

Some people make the argument that fast fashion is the only way that those with lower incomes can dress trendily. Well, yes. But isn’t that still exploiting people with even lower-incomes overseas? In Boohoo and its sister brands’ factories, they allegedly pay wages as low as £2-3 per hour in their UK Leicester factories [The Guardian 2021]. If fast fashion companies gave even a slightly bigger percentage more of their profits to their employees it would begin to solve numerous ethical problems that stem from the clothing industry. But many companies would rather drive for the biggest profit margin that they can. Human rights violations lie at the heart of fast fashion.

Some brands have begun to market more ‘sustainable’ ranges like H&M’s Conscious range and Amazon’s Aware range. But these ranges are still fast fashion. The turnover of clothing in these ‘sustainable’ collections can mean that they can never truly be sustainable.

Fast fashion is a social movement. You can be a leader by moving in the other direction. It’s important we analyse our own behaviour and consumer habits. Will we wear the item of clothing in a year or two years’ time? If not – don’t buy it.

I try and stick to a 90/10 rule where 90% of my clothing is second-hand from charity shops, car boot sales and second-hand clothing sites like Depop and Vinted, and the other 10% is brand new clothing that I think I will wear for years to come. But this might not work for everyone. Shien and Boohoo, for example, offer a more size-inclusive range than sustainable brands and vintage shops.

Beginning changes to break from the cycle:

  1. Shop from sustainable and ethical fashion brands if you can.
  2. Buy less often and buy higher quality clothing.
  3. Don’t recycle or throw away your old clothes. Sell them on Depop, eBay or Vinted or just go to your local car boot sales. Plus, you will get a little bit of extra cash. Donate them as a last resort as more than 80% goes to landfill.
  4. Buy or rent second-hand clothing from a provider near you (especially for an event or ball where you will only wear it once).
  5. Repurpose/ repair/ tailor old clothing.
  6. Use the 90/10 rule when shopping.

It’s unfair to condemn Generation Z for being consumers of fast fashion when people of all ages keep the system going or at least fail to challenge it. The people we look up to for fashion inspiration, such as influencers and celebrities, should adapt too.

Shopping second-hand is becoming more and more the norm and almost trendy in itself. Influencers that exclusively shop second-hand are popping up on TikTok and YouTube and positively changing the fashion industry. Tasha Ghouri from the most recent series of Love Island is a good example of this, she has partnered with eBay to promote pre-loved fashion. This gives hope that sustainable influencers will inspire the younger generation to do the same.

It is not just up to consumers to change the fashion industry. Brands must operate in a transparent way, including signing the transparency pledge and publishing supplier lists.

Everyone likes new clothes. It’s time we all about thought whether a smart new dress or a classy jacket is the best choice for the wider environment. It’s important to remember that the most sustainable garment is the one already in your wardrobe.

Content: Unleashing Brand Power: Understanding the Secrets of TikTok Virality

News TikTok

In the dynamic world of social media, TikTok has emerged as a powerful platform for brands to connect with their audience. The quest for TikTok virality was a focal point of discussion at a recent event hosted Glossy, where beauty and wellness leaders gathered to share their insights.

TikTok, known for its short-form videos and catchy challenges, has become a breeding ground for viral content. Brands are increasingly seeking to harness the power of TikTok to reach a wider audience and boost their visibility. Achieving TikTok virality, however, is no simple feat.

To unleash brand power on TikTok, it is crucial to understand the secrets of virality. While there is no one-size-fits-all formula, certain elements tend to resonate with TikTok users. Authenticity and relatability are key. By showcasing genuine experiences and capturing the essence of everyday life, brands can connect with users on a deeper level.

Moreover, creativity plays a pivotal role in TikTok success. Brands that think outside the box and surprise their audience with fresh ideas are more likely to gain traction. Whether it’s through unique storytelling, unexpected visual effects, or innovative use of music, creativity is the driving force behind viral TikToks.

It’s essential for brands to stay ahead of the curve and tap into the latest trends on TikTok. By keeping a close eye on popular challenges and emerging memes, brands can align their content with what is currently resonating with the TikTok community. However, simply following trends is not enough; brands must infuse their own unique flair to stand out from the crowd.

Lastly, understanding the TikTok algorithm is crucial for achieving virality. The platform’s algorithm is designed to prioritize content that generates high engagement. By optimizing video titles, descriptions, and hashtags, brands can increase their chances of appearing in users’ feeds and trending on the For You page.

In conclusion, the pursuit of TikTok virality presents both challenges and opportunities for brands. By embracing authenticity, creativity, and staying attuned to the platform’s trends and algorithm, brands can unlock the full potential of TikTok and captivate a vast audience.

World Today - Celebrity and advertising attract social media stars in Mauritania
You are now following the news of fame and ads attract the stars of social networking in Mauritania from the section of news of the world and now we leave you with full details
Mohammed - Abu Dhabi on Tuesday 14 February 2023 12: 22 PM - "I never imagined that a short clip of my interaction with a song would open the doors of fame for me."
This is how Mariam, known as "MEO", explained to Dot Al-Khaleej the reasons for her entry into the world of "Fashniestat" and the advertising market.
In the middle of last year 2022, Mio posted a short clip on the TikTok platform, showing her interacting with one of the songs and met with great interaction.
Soon after, Mio, 20, found herself in the world of social media fame, and suddenly began to be bombarded with marketing offers.
Mio currently has more than 90,000 followers on TikTok and more than 13,000 on Instagram.
Meo told Dot Al Khaleej that she did not aspire to fame on social media, “my studies were the priority. ”
She is now paid cash to market products such as perfumes and cosmetics, as well as advertising for her own business.
Snapchat tops the most popular platforms with celebrities, followed by TikTok and Instagram.
Facebook, despite the presence of ads and celebrities on its pages, has generally become a platform for news, analysis and political debate on the latest files of interest to the public.
Family Difficulties
Most "fascists" face family pressures and denunciations of their looks.
Some of them also sometimes face obscene and abusive comments, accused of "debauchery".
Mama bint Mustafa, 22, entered the field of fame and advertising years ago, followed on "TikTok" 300 thousand and on "Snapchat" more than 70 thousand, and the number of followers on "Instagram" about 100 thousand.
Bint Al Mustafa explains to Dot Al Khaleej that the world of social media has completely changed her life, especially at the social and physical levels.
She says she entered advertising at the beginning of 2020, which enabled her to become financially independent and help her family with the cost of living.
“At first I didn ’ t have the support of my family, but I believed in my abilities and success in this field until I got to where I am today. ”
She complains that the biggest difficulty she faces as a "Fashnista" is not having real friends who are "not in the best interests of themselves."
They don't recommend this.
The world of fame and advertising is full of psychological pressures, according to some "Fashnistat", and do not recommend access to it despite the great opportunities for wealth, and even access to the world, similar to the hopes of bint al-Sheikh, who entered the field in 2020.
In her speech to "Dot Al-Khaleej", Bint Al-Sheikh points out that she has become financially self-reliant, and has become a global content provider.
She explains that she entered the field in 2020, and is currently followed on TikTok 100 thousand, and has advertising contracts, but fame "has not changed anything in my life, and I advise girls not to enter or approach this field," as she put it without explaining the reasons.
Like Bint Al Sheikh, Dateh Bint Mohammed advises against entering this world, after her experience, which spanned six years, during which she garnered 300,000 followers on "Snapchat" 300 and about 174 thousand on "Instagram", and currently has advertising contracts and sponsorships.
Bint Mohammed told "Dot Al-Khaleej" that she does not recommend entering "the world of Fashnistat", despite the wealth that may allow, but it causes a lot of psychological and health damage in general, and can not be easily retired "it is a world full of pressure and fatigue", as she put it.
TikTok Wave.
Easy fame.
Recently, the platform "TikTok" has become an easy gateway to fame and attract followers, and some of the pioneers of this platform work hard to create distinctive content, enter them in the world of advertising.
This platform has contributed to the great fame of countries in the Arab world, including Mauritania, through the circulation of clips that are known or present their culture and art.
Some girls are trying to enter the world of fame to be "fascists", relying on external appearance and a permanent presence on TikTok, but some have not yet had the opportunity, "due to the absence of extensive relations" in the words of one of them.
On the other hand, many girls are lucky when they enter TikTok for a short time and become famous, sometimes because of their relationships with some well-known girls on social networking sites.
The pressures of the “virtual world ”
Mauritanian fascists – as in the rest of the world – are known to document almost completely, socialize and share their lifestyle with followers, “but it does more harm than good, ” said Batoul Bint El Hassan El Hadj, who has decided to stay away from the field, despite her fame and strong presence on lesbians and advertising.
Al-Batoul says fame is anyone ’ s dream, but she has decided to focus more on reality than the virtual world.
She told Sky News Arabia that she has participated in many TV and video clips, and offers ads for a communication company, which has changed her financial situation.
She says she receives several offers but has decided not to be active on social media or share her private life on those sites.
Social media stars in Mauritania broke into the advertising market, taking advantage of the fame that allowed them to sign sponsorship contracts with banks, restaurants and shops, and this reflected materially on their lives clearly, and on the interaction and interaction with the new content of "social networking" in society, after the content of news and political issues remained at the forefront of the scene for years.
We hope that we have succeeded in conveying the full details of the news of fame and ads attract the stars of social networking in Mauritania..
In God ’ s care and protection.

News TikTok

How has TikTok influenced the speed at which trends emerge and fade?

TikTok, the popular social media platform known for its short-form videos, has revolutionized the way trends emerge and fade in today’s fast-paced digital world. With its vast user base and unique algorithm, TikTok has become a breeding ground for viral challenges, dances, and memes that spread like wildfire. This article explores the impact of TikTok on the speed at which trends emerge and fade, and how it has reshaped the landscape of online culture.

The Rise of TikTok

TikTok, launched in 2016, quickly gained popularity among young users for its addictive and easily shareable content. The platform allows users to create and upload short videos set to music, often featuring creative editing techniques and catchy choreography. Its algorithm, which curates content based on user preferences, has played a significant role in the rapid dissemination of trends.

The Speed of Trend Emergence

TikTok’s algorithmic recommendation system has accelerated the speed at which trends emerge. When a user engages with a particular video, the algorithm identifies similar content and presents it to the user, thus amplifying its reach. This process creates a snowball effect, rapidly spreading trends across the platform. As a result, what might have taken weeks or even months to gain traction on other social media platforms can now explode in popularity within days on TikTok.

The Transience of Trends

While TikTok has accelerated the emergence of trends, it has also contributed to their fleeting nature. The platform’s fast-paced nature and constant influx of new content mean that trends can quickly become oversaturated and lose their appeal. What was once the hottest trend can fade into obscurity within a matter of days, as users move on to the next viral sensation. This rapid turnover of trends has created a sense of urgency and FOMO (fear of missing out) among users, driving them to constantly stay up to date with the latest viral challenges.

FAQ

Q: What is an algorithm?
A: An algorithm is a set of rules or instructions followed a computer program to solve a problem or perform a specific task. In the context of TikTok, the algorithm determines which content is shown to users based on their preferences and engagement history.

Q: What is FOMO?
A: FOMO, an acronym for “fear of missing out,” refers to the anxiety or unease one feels when they believe they are missing out on exciting or interesting experiences, particularly in the context of social events or trends.

In conclusion, TikTok has significantly influenced the speed at which trends emerge and fade. Its algorithmic recommendation system has accelerated the spread of trends, while the platform’s fast-paced nature has contributed to their transience. As TikTok continues to shape online culture, it will be fascinating to observe how trends evolve and adapt in this ever-evolving digital landscape.

Content: (Bloomberg) -- Editor’s note: The Lunch Break column highlights dishes from a variety of sources: a new or reopened restaurant; a newsmaking person, place, or recipe; or, of course, a great cookbook.

First things first: Does the world really need a TikTok cookbook? After all, the key to the platform’s success and time-suck appeal is that you’re consuming videos, over and over again, on a screen. Put viral recipes on a page, and the energy stops cold.

Still, TikTok dishes represent a global economic force. After @grilledcheesesocial (blogger MacKenzie Smith) posted a short video of baked feta pasta in early 2021, sales of the cheese skyrocketed. The Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association estimated that feta sales increased by an additional 4 million pounds in February and March of that year. Dalgona coffee mania kicked in during the pandemic because the four-ingredient whipped drink, originally from Macao but famous in Korea, highlighted instant coffee, a handy pantry item.

People put these recipes on repeat, because so many of them are good, they solve problems, and they’re also fun to make and share. Perhaps it’s helpful to flash back to the cooking trends of the past few years.

If so, here’s your book. “If you love to cook, a phone has become just as important as a sharp knife,” declares the intro to As Cooked on TikTok (Clarkson Potter, $20). Within the pages are a few famed dishes—for instance, the fun mashup of butter chicken pasta from UK-based creator Rene, aka @renes.cravings. (The book doesn’t list last names.) There are also tweaks on TikTok’s hall of fame dishes: baked feta ramen and baked feta pasta soup among them.

Pancake cereal falls in the classic TikTok category and seems prime to try before a long holiday weekend here in the US, when we all have a little more time for morning indulgences. The dish was created by @sydneymelhoff, who was inspired to turn the drips from making pancake into little rounds that could be thrown into a bowl just like cereal. Then My Nguyen (@myhealthydish), who has 4.1 million TikTok fans, took it a step further: She made an engaging tutorial video, emphasizing the importance of a squeeze bottle to make the adorable rounds, as well as a griddle.

Having neither, I made them in a skillet with a resealable plastic bag with a corner cut off. The result undoubtedly takes a lot longer. both to cook and clean up. But pancake cereal is a very, very fun way to eat your breakfast.

The tender rounds with a buttery browned crust are perfect mini pancakes. It might be my imagination, but they seem to hold on to the maple syrup better than the larger version. It’s definitely easier to cook them; when the top has enough bubbles you just scoop them up with one or two metal spatulas and keep cooking. You can put extra butter on the cereal (you should) and milk (I wouldn’t). It lights up your morning—or evening, in my case—no matter how you serve it.

It also happens to be an ideal Father’s Day breakfast, a dish that’s homemade, a guaranteed crowd-pleaser, and easy enough for even very little ones to cook without too much fuss. “It is so fun to make for the kids, and you’re incorporating something from TikTok, which is basically their culture now,” Nyugen says via email. Plus, she continues, “it’s actually really good.”

Speaking of fathers: In the foreword to As Cooked on TikTok, Gordon Ramsay (@gordonramsayofficial; 32.7 million TikTok fans) writes that the book “displays innovative cooking and fun dishes to make at home.” He goes on: “Nothing in this book is worthy of my reaction on TikTok…unless you turn it into a mess.” The response from his daughter and co-author, Tilly (@tillyramsay; 10.2 million fans): “I can’t wait to share with some real TikTok chefs.”

The following recipe, from My Nguyen, is adapted from As Cooked on TikTok.

Pancake Cereal

Serves 4 or 5

2 cups / 280g all-purpose flour2 tsp baking powder2 tsp sugar¼ tsp table salt2 large eggs1⅔ cups / 395ml milk (dairy or plant-based), or more as needed3 Tbsp / 45g unsalted butter, or more as neededMaple syrup, butter (optional), and milk (optional), for serving

In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, then milk, until smooth. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix until smooth. If the batter is too thick and isn’t pourable, mix in more milk, a splash at a time.

Transfer batter to a squeeze bottle or resealable plastic bag with a corner cut off. Heat a griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. When the griddle is hot, melt 1 Tbsp butter and spread it evenly. Squeeze small coin-size dots of batter onto griddle, leaving some space for pancakes to spread, but fitting as many as you can to reduce cooking time. This should be about one-third of the batter.

Cook until the tops of pancakes are dry and bubbles form, about 2 minutes, then use two spatulas to stir and toss them. Continue cooking until pancakes are golden brown and crisp on the edges, about 2 more minutes. Lower the heat a bit if necessary.

Transfer cooked pancake cereal to a plate and repeat with remaining butter and batter. When all pancakes are cooked, divide cereal among bowls and drizzle with maple syrup, add a pat of butter and/or a splash of milk, and serve right away.

Content: Shopping on Social: Insights from Dee Agarwal on e-Comm in Social Media

Dee Agarwal explores the booming trend of social commerce, its benefits for businesses, and key strategies like authenticity and community building, emphasizing it as a transformative force for growth and engagement.

The days of solely browsing aisles or mindlessly scrolling product pages are fading. Today's consumers crave an immersive, engaging shopping experience, and social media is spearheading this revolution. What were once platforms for connecting with friends are rapidly transforming into powerful e-commerce hubs, blurring the lines between entertainment and shopping sprees.

Dee Agarwal, an experienced C-suite executive, delves into the thriving world of social commerce, exploring its key trends, benefits, and practical tips for businesses looking to tap into this burgeoning market.

Why Social Shopping is Booming

Dee Agarwal notes that several factors are driving the surge in social commerce:

  • Discovery & Inspiration: Platforms like Instagram and TikTok act as treasure troves for discovering new products. Influencers, user-generated content (UGC), and targeted ads showcase products in an authentic, relatable way, igniting instant desire.
  • Seamless Experience: “Gone are the days of navigating clunky websites,” says Dee Agarwal. “Social shopping offers a frictionless buying journey, allowing users to purchase directly within the app without leaving their familiar social space.”
  • Community & Trust: Social media fosters a sense of community and trust. Recommendations from friends and influencers hold more weight than traditional advertising, influencing purchase decisions.
  • Mobile-First: Dee Agarwal notes that “with over 90% of social media accessed via mobile, social commerce aligns perfectly with modern, on-the-go lifestyles.”

Examples of Social Commerce in Action

The growth of commerce on social media isn’t relegated to one platform. A variety of social media channels, both new and legacy, are getting in the game with features that drive sales -- creating new opportunities for entrepreneurs and marketers. Dee Agarwal explores how different platforms are making their mark:

  • Instagram: Shoppable posts, Instagram Stories with product links, and influencer marketing reign supreme. Fashion and beauty brands like Fenty Beauty leverage these features to showcase products and drive sales.
  • TikTok: The platform now offers TikTok Shop, a new feature allowing brands to set up dedicated storefronts within the app. This provides a seamless shopping experience for users, who can discover products directly within the video feed and purchase them with just a few clicks. “Short-form, engaging videos with in-app purchase options are exploding,” says Dee Agarwal. “Brands like Gymshark partner with micro-influencers to create dynamic product demonstrations, leading to viral trends and instant purchases.
  • Facebook & Pinterest: Both platforms offer robust shop features with product catalogs and targeted advertising, which is ideal for established brands with diverse product lines.
  • Live Streaming: Platforms like YouTube and Twitch are embracing live shopping events, where influencers showcase products in real time and viewers can purchase directly during the stream.

Benefits for Businesses

Social media allows businesses to bring their products directly to customers in a new way that meets them where they already are. Dee Agarwal shares why companies should embrace social commerce:

  • Reach New Audiences: Dee Agarwal notes that “with billions of active users across diverse demographics, social media opens doors to untapped markets.”
  • Boost Brand Awareness: Engaging content builds brand recognition and loyalty, increasing organic reach and sales.
  • Enhanced Customer Engagement: Direct interaction with customers fosters trust and allows for real-time feedback, improving brand perception.
  • Targeted Advertising: “Leverage platform algorithms to reach highly specific audiences with personalized ads, maximizing marketing ROI,” says Dee Agarwal.
  • Data-Driven Decisions: Social media analytics provide valuable insights into customer preferences and behavior, informing product development and sales and marketing strategies.

Tips for Success in Social Commerce

While social media offers immense sales opportunities for savvy businesses, Dee Agarwal recommends keeping the following tips in mind when developing social media e-commerce strategies: :

  • Authenticity is Key: Focus on creating genuine content that resonates with your target audience,” says Dee Agarwal. “User-generated content and influencer partnerships can be powerful tools.”
  • Embrace Visual Storytelling: High-quality images, videos, and captivating narratives grab attention and drive engagement.
  • Utilize Shoppable Features: Integrate shoppable features offered by various platforms to make the buying process smooth and seamless.
  • Prioritize Mobile Optimization: Ensure your content and shopping experience are optimized for mobile devices, where most social media activity occurs.
  • Community Building: Foster a sense of community through interactive content, contests, and live sessions to build lasting relationships with customers and showcase product offerings.
  • Experiment & Analyze: Dee Agarwal says, “Stay up-to-date with trends, experiment with different formats, and track your results to continuously refine your social commerce strategy.”

Social commerce is no longer a trend; it's a growing force reshaping the e-commerce landscape. By understanding its potential, adapting your strategy, and embracing the unique features of each platform, businesses can unlock massive opportunities to reach new audiences, build brand loyalty, and drive significant revenue growth.
