How TikTok changed PR
Some TikTok creators are sharing insight into the public relations industry, making consumers increasingly aware of public relations tactics and forcing brands to update their strategies. Transparency is much more important than PR "spin" in today's world as users want to connect with brands that feel authentic and genuine. "TikTok is a super powerful, high reward tool for brands … but there is also high risk in viral exposure," Allison Katz, president at public relations agency The Krupp Group, told Business of Fashion. "Brands need to make sure they are able to stand by the claims that they're making. It's really important for [PRs] to hone the messaging and hold brands accountable for what they're selling." {Business of Fashion/paywalled}

FDA delays new MoCRA enforcement 
The beauty industry has been fraught with questions over the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act of 2022 (MoCRA), which is America's first big move to regulate the beauty industry in more than 80 years. The act goes into effect at the end of December, and it gives the Food & Drug Administration more visibility into beauty product ingredients and where products were manufactured. Beauty brands were supposed to supply the FDA with a list of their products and where they were manufactured by Dec. 29, but the FDA announced on Wednesday that it intends to postpone that deadline to June 1, 2024. While many brands that Glossy spoke with supported MoCRA, many are still left with questions surrounding how small businesses factor into this new act and how eye makeup will be categorized. {Glossy}
