TikTok releases its first UK Shopping Report

TikTok has launched its first UK Shopping Report, an insightful report highlighting the UK's shopping habits and providing a deep dive into the most influential shopping trends and products, spanning fashion, beauty, tech and home.

Fashion:

  • Items like POP MART The Monsters Vinyl Toys - AKA Labubus - reflect a trend towards nostalgia-driven purchasing and dominated social feeds in recent weeks.
  • There have been 1.1 billion video views on Labubu related content in 2025, over 68k #labubu videos posted, and POP MART experienced a staggering 819% increase in orders (1st March - 29th May 2025).
  • Comfort-driven fits are also making waves in the denim space on TikTok Shop.

Top fashion searches of 2025 (so far)

  • Bad Bunny Calvin Klein
  • Tankini
  • Clear Uggs
  • Kendrick Lamar Jeans

Shopping habits:

  • Oasis' reunion has sparked the UK's nostalgia for 90s Britpop. The band's iconic style - part Mod, part 90s - features a few iconic components: parkas, track tops, football shirts and, of course, the bucket hat.
  • As a result of this rising trend, TikTok Shop saw purchases for bucket hats spike in early July ahead of the band's first show.
  • What started as a TikTok trend of fans dressing like Pitbull aka "Mr Worldwide" turned into a viral phenomenon.
  • As the trend took off, TikTok Shop saw a 420% increase in purchases for Pitbull costumes.

TikTok's top three shopping moments of the year to date

  • Pitbull UK tour- Globally #PitbullConcert had 42M video views and TikTok Shop saw a 420% increase in Pitbull costumes, with orders peaking on 3rd June, ahead of his UK performances.
  • UK Heatwave - Brits were finding ways to keep cool during this summer's heatwave, with orders for inflatable swimming pools up 276% and an incredible 640% increase in orders for CoolTowel in June alone.
  • The Oasis Effect - Video views for Oasis reached over 618M with orders for bucket hats peaking in on 5th July, ahead of their tour.

Beauty:

  • With over 356k posts for #SkinBarrier, this trend signals skincare is no longer just about aesthetics - it’s about health, science, and self-empowerment and growing consumer sophistication around skincare routines.
  • Products like the Wonderskin Lip Stain and P.Louise Bad B*tch Lip Duo highlight a growing preference for long-lasting solutions that require little maintenance.
  • In wellness, items like Glow For It Lengthening and Strengthening Lash Serum and Nature Spell Limited Edition Rosemary Hair Oil reflect a broader demand for results-driven self-care, where consumers prioritise products that deliver tangible results with minimal effort.
