November 2025 Social Media Trends


An overview of November's top trends in social media, creators, and sponsorships, along with key moments to watch out for.
Social Trends
The Lion/Lioness
- This trend is a playful, joking way of referring to yourself as a lion or lioness and dismissing things you’re not concerned with (even though you probably should be!).
- Creators and users are sharing the little things they couldn’t care less about, like forgetting to charge their phone, treating themselves after every meal, or that ever-growing shopping habit.
- Beauty Example: The text overlay could say, “The lion does not concern herself with how many steps are in her glowy skincare routine,” while the clip shows her going through every step like the self-care guru she is.
Betrayal List
- This trend is all about getting real about what (and who) you’re leaving behind. It’s a mix of humor and honesty, allowing people to share things, habits, or mindsets they no longer want. Think of it as your personal plunge list!
- From “the one strand of hair that never stays” to “tummy issues” and “public speaking,” this trends welcomes versatility and lightheartedness as creators explore things they feel betrayed by.
- Entertainment Example: Text overlay of “My Betrayal List” followed by bulleted items that feel like betrayals. Things like, “Finding out your bf watched the next episode of [tv show] without you” or “having to wait 2 weeks for the next episode of [tv show]!”.
