<![CDATA[The Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) phenomenon among Generation Z is increasing due to the increased use of social media as a source of information and informal learning, particularly in the beauty and makeup industry.

This study aims to analyze the influence of FoMO on social media algorithms and the role of influencers on digital learning and consumption behavior through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with the PRISMA approach. Eighteen articles meeting the inclusion criteria were analyzed using thematic systematic techniques. The results indicate that FoMO is a major factor driving Generation Z to follow beauty trends on social media.
