Affiliate Disclosure
The Beauty Briefing’s Affiliate Disclosure explains how we use affiliate links and how those relationships support the publication.
Some BeautyBriefs and other shopping-related pages may contain affiliate links. If you make a purchase through one of those links, The Beauty Briefing may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
Using an affiliate link does not add a fee to your purchase.
Affiliate relationships do not influence editorial conclusions
Affiliate relationships never determine which products we evaluate, how favorably or critically we describe them, which limitations we include, or which comparison products we discuss.
The availability of an affiliate link does not make a product a stronger fit, improve its Claims Check, strengthen its Value Check, or change the Bottom Line.
Our editorial conclusions follow the BB Method and remain separate from affiliate and retailer relationships.
Read How BeautyBriefs Work and our Editorial Independence Policy.
Affiliate links may appear on any BeautyBrief
Retailer and affiliate links may appear on a BeautyBrief when approved links are available, regardless of whether the evaluation is favorable, mixed, narrow-fit, cautionary, or critical.
The presence of a retailer link is a shopping utility, not an endorsement.
A critical evaluation may still include a purchase link, and a favorable evaluation may have no affiliate link at all. Commercial availability does not determine the editorial analysis.
Affiliate retail partners
The Beauty Briefing participates in affiliate programs with select retailers, including RegimenPro and CosmoFactor. These retailers may appear as Where to Buy options when they carry a product evaluated or discussed on the site.
RegimenPro provides access to professional and clinical skincare products, including products commonly sold through dermatology, aesthetic, and professional skincare channels.
CosmoFactor provides access to skincare and beauty products across a broader range of brands and product categories.
When you make a qualifying purchase through an eligible RegimenPro or CosmoFactor link, The Beauty Briefing may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
Our affiliate relationship with either retailer does not influence product selection, Claims Check, Shopper Fit, Formula Flags, Shopper Preferences, Key Ingredients, Price Tier, Value Check, Bottom Line, comparisons, or Final BeautyBrief wording.
Retailer availability also does not establish product quality. Products sold through affiliate retailers are evaluated using the same BB Method and editorial standards applied to other products.
Retailer links, prices, and availability
Retailer prices, product availability, and affiliate relationships may change over time.
An affiliate link may stop working, lead to a different retailer, or no longer generate a commission. Those changes do not alter BB’s evaluation of the product.
Shoppers should review the retailer’s current price, shipping terms, return policy, and product details before completing a purchase.
How affiliate revenue supports The Beauty Briefing
Affiliate revenue may help support the costs of publishing independent BeautyBriefs, Beauty Briefings, ingredient research, Beauty News, comparisons, and other beauty-buying guidance.
It does not purchase editorial influence.
Our broader commitments to accuracy, transparency, and independence are explained in our Editorial Standards.
