TikTok Shop enters 2026 with a very different momentum compared to peak Q4.
January marks a reset month across Europe, with post-holiday behavior reshaping what performs best on social commerce.
Rather than impulse gifting or Black Friday spikes, January sales highlight:
practical, utility-driven products
home equipment and appliances
beauty routines and self-improvement
fitness and “new year reset” categories
This updated TikTok Shop analysis, based on Kalodata, across five major markets France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK highlights the products and categories that dominated January 2026 and what they reveal about evolving consumer intent.





In November 2025, TikTok Shop was driven by:
Black Friday deals
gifting behavior
high promotional intensity
emotional and impulse purchases
January 2026 breaks sharply from that model.
Across all markets:
fewer extreme revenue spikes appear
utility, durability, and routine-based products dominate
➡️ January reflects intent-driven commerce rather than opportunistic buying.

Q1 is not about volume, but intent
January buyers convert when value is clear, not when urgency is artificial.
Creator education replaces promotion
Demonstration content outperforms deal-driven messaging.
Category hierarchies reset fast
What wins in Q4 does not automatically carry into January.
Operational efficiency matters even more post-peak
Without promotions, catalog accuracy and availability become decisive.
