🌟 Creator Spotlights

One of our dedicated TasteMaker Ambassadors (representing Philly!) and community moderators, Khai, @AnotherKhaiCreation, continues to keep our Creator Community thriving. From organizing virtual events to mentoring fellow creators, she’s the definition of community in action— and she’s now officially launched her own brand on TikTok Shop, SelfHab, as part of our ALL IN for BFCM Campaign! 💫 Thanks Khai, for all that you are! — and all that you do for the community! 💫
When Sweet Mayhem, one of our BFCM brand sponsors, invited Tearra, @realrichgirltea, to their San Jose warehouse to go LIVE for the first time, she turned the opportunity into a major win — generating $1K GMV in just two hours for their leggings! Tearra’s story is a testament to how creativity and community support can spark incredible growth. 🚀
