Affiliate Disclosure
How we fund our work — and why it never compromises our editorial integrity.
Last updated: February 15, 2026
Transparency is a core value at Luxury Beauty. In compliance with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines and our own editorial standards, we want you to understand exactly how our site generates revenue and how that relates to the content we publish.
Some links on Luxury Beauty are affiliate links. If you click on one of these links and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. This is the primary way we fund our editorial operations.
What Happens When You Click an Affiliate Link
When you click a product link in one of our reviews, you are directed to the retailer's website (e.g., Amazon.com). The link contains a tracking identifier that tells the retailer you arrived from Luxury Beauty. If you complete a purchase during that session, the retailer pays us a small referral fee — typically a single-digit percentage of the sale price. The price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or navigate to the retailer directly.
Editorial Independence Pledge
Our affiliate relationships have zero influence on our editorial content. Specifically:
- Affiliate commissions never determine which products we review, how we rate them, or whether we recommend them.
- Our editors complete all testing and write their verdicts before any affiliate links are added to the page.
- Products that perform poorly in our testing receive honest assessments regardless of their affiliate commission rates.
- We do not accept payment from brands for favorable reviews or higher ratings.
Amazon Associates Program
Luxury Beauty is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.
Your Support Matters
Using our affiliate links is a simple way to support independent beauty journalism at no cost to you. It allows us to continue investing in thorough product testing, ingredient analysis, and the editorial work that goes into every review we publish.
