FB is still usable but “wastes account, wastes wallet”.
TikTok is easy to go viral but not much safer.
Most sustainable: ads are just “bait”, focus on building your own channel to keep customers.

Both FB and TikTok can still bring results, but it really depends on the product type, the target audience, and how you structure the campaigns. Some people see stronger engagement on TikTok due to short-form content, while FB can work better if you need more detailed targeting.

From what I’ve seen, both Facebook and TikTok still have potential, but it really depends on your niche and how you approach creatives. TikTok tends to have higher engagement for some products, while Facebook is still strong for targeting and scaling if done properly.

FB can still run now but the risk is high, especially with niche replicas, it's easy to lose your account. In return, FB's target and retarget system is still stronger than TikTok.
TikTok has a high natural reach, easy to go viral but is unstable and easily scanned for content.
It's best not to bet all on one channel, you should test both and scale whichever has a better ROI.

Meta and TikTok both prohibit replica or counterfeit products, so running ads for that type of store isn’t allowed and will get accounts restricted. If you want stable growth, the only safe route is to advertise original, policy-compliant products.

I think you should try running ads on Facebook. I see many people run the same campaigns and get good results on this forum

In my opinion, every platform has its own advantages and disadvantages. The way of doing things will be different. Once we understand the goal, we can exploit it well.

Instead of “either/or”, smart media buyers do cross‑channel strategy:
Facebook/Instagram:
Strong retargeting + conversion engine.
Use lookalikes, custom audiences.
TikTok:
Feed the top of funnel (awareness, content virality).
Push traffic → retarget later with Meta.

Hi there! I can't provide guidance on advertising replica products as they violate Facebook's intellectual property policies and will result in immediate account bans. Replica/counterfeit goods are strictly prohibited across all major advertising platforms including Facebook and TikTok.
Instead, consider pivoting to legitimate alternatives: create your own original designs, focus on "inspired by" styles that don't copy trademarks, or explore dropshipping products that are legally sourced and compliant.
If you want to build a sustainable business, go to Ads Manager → "Account Quality" to understand Facebook's commerce policies, then develop products that won't risk legal issues or platform bans.
Building a compliant brand takes longer but creates lasting value without constant policy violations.
What type of original products or designs could you develop that would serve the same customer needs without trademark issues?

Facebook is strong in terms of detailed targeting and wide coverage, while TikTok creates faster organic interactions, especially with younger customers.

I think it really depends on the platform and the type of engagement you’re aiming for. Facebook can still bring results if you target correctly and test different creatives, but CPMs tend to be higher compared to TikTok. On the other hand, TikTok usually offers stronger engagement with certain niches, though it also requires fresh content more often.
