The mascara wand trend leaves netizens in splits

Initially, TikTok users who watched the videos could not understand why people were talking so much about this makeup tool. However, they later realized that these people were not talking about makeup and were left scratching their heads. Here's how netizens reacted to this trend:

TikTok is a place where one thing or another manages to get attention. Another trend that has managed to garner attention is the dupe trend. According to this trend, TikTokers talk about someone who looks like a cheaper or duped version of an item or a person. However, people are calling this trend unfunny, saying that it is about degrading and objectifying people.

Meanwhile, speaking of NSFW content, TikTok does not allow s*xually explicit content, nudity, or pornography on their platform. However, users have managed to find a way out of it.
