Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: June 28, 2026
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) guidelines concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising, this page discloses NaturalGlowGuides' relationship with affiliate marketing programs and the retailers and brands featured throughout this Site. We believe in full transparency, and we want every reader to clearly understand how this Site is funded.
1. What Are Affiliate Links?
An affiliate link is a special tracking URL that allows a retailer or brand to identify that a visitor came from our Site. If you click an affiliate link and go on to make a qualifying purchase, the retailer pays us a small commission. This is a common and standard way that independent review and content sites, including this one, are able to fund the time spent researching, testing, writing, and maintaining the content we publish.
2. Our Amazon Associates Relationship
NaturalGlowGuides is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases made through links on this Site.
When you click a link on this Site that leads to Amazon and you make a purchase within Amazon's applicable affiliate cookie window, we may receive a commission. This applies whether or not the item you purchase is the specific item we linked to — Amazon's program structure means a qualifying purchase of any eligible item during that session may generate a commission for us. Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates.
3. Other Affiliate Programs
In addition to the Amazon Associates Program, we may participate in other affiliate or partner programs from time to time, including but not limited to programs run directly by beauty, hair care, and wellness brands. The same principle applies across all of these programs: if you click a qualifying link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
4. How These Links Are Identified
We aim to make affiliate links easy to recognize. Product recommendation buttons, “Check Price” or “Shop Now” calls to action, and in-article product mentions linking out to retailers are generally affiliate links. Many articles also include a short reminder near the top of the page noting that the post may contain affiliate links. If you are ever unsure whether a specific link is an affiliate link, you are welcome to contact us and ask.
5. Our Editorial Independence
Our product rankings, reviews, and recommendations are based on independent research, publicly available product information, ingredient analysis, and our own editorial judgment. We do not accept payment from brands in exchange for a positive review, and the presence or size of a potential commission does not determine whether or how highly we recommend a product.
That said, we are transparent that we only earn revenue from products we actually link to, which naturally means we are more likely to feature products available through programs we participate in, such as Amazon. We make reasonable efforts to consider the broader market when forming our opinions, but we encourage readers to also do their own research before making a purchasing decision.
6. No Extra Cost to You
Using our affiliate links does not increase the price you pay for any product. The commission we receive is paid by the retailer out of its own marketing budget, not added to your purchase price. In many cases, affiliate links simply take you to the exact same product page and price you would reach by navigating to the retailer's site directly and searching for the item yourself.
7. Cookies Used by Affiliate Partners
When you click an affiliate link, the destination retailer (such as Amazon) typically places a cookie in your browser to track that the visit originated from our Site, so that any qualifying purchase can be correctly attributed to us. This cookie is set and controlled by the retailer, not by NaturalGlowGuides, and is subject to that retailer's own privacy policy. For more detail on cookies generally, please see our Privacy Policy.
8. Not Professional or Medical Endorsement
Featuring or linking to a product on this Site is not a medical or dermatological endorsement and should not be interpreted as a guarantee that the product is right for you, safe for your specific skin or scalp condition, or will produce any particular result. Always review product ingredients and instructions yourself, and consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting any new product or routine, especially if you have allergies, sensitivities, or an existing medical condition. See our full Disclaimer for more information.
9. Changes to This Disclosure
We may update this Affiliate Disclosure from time to time to reflect new affiliate relationships or changes in applicable guidelines. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date. We encourage you to check back periodically.
