Writing an ethics statement isn’t the most fun part of running a blog, but I think it is essential to lay down the principles Social Beautify runs on.
Opinions
All opinions and views mentioned on SocialBeautify are my own (Ewa Pietreniuk), and they are here for information, entertainment and review purposes only. Everybody has their own opinions on various topics, and these are my own. I do not wish to offend or insult anybody by what I write concerning certain products; I am just offering my review and opinion on particular items and how they work for me. Some of these products that work well for me may not work for you, as we are all unique.
Honesty
I work hard to create a reliable source of beauty, fashion and lifestyle information for all my readers. All my posts must be honest and truthful about my experiences; therefore, I will never accept payment to speak positively about a product/service if I disagree.
I believe that my reader’s trust is my future, and it’s hard-earned, so I want my readers to feel they can trust me and that they are not being sold products I wouldn’t buy myself.
I try to be constructive with my opinions, and often if I genuinely dislike a product, I simply don’t talk about it. I only feature items that I feel deserve to be featured.
Affiliates and Gifts
The beauty items or clothing featured on this blog may have been purchased, gifted, loaned or bought with discount codes or vouchers. You will find that the beginning of each post details the particulars of the products featured. However, I would never wear something I disliked or show you something that I hated, so the fact that I’m using or wearing said item shows that I love it. Like most bloggers in this industry, I use several affiliate commission services, including Skimlinks and LTK Shop, to earn a commission percentage on product sales. This site, therefore, uses cookies. The links or products used don’t cost you any more than they usually would – the commission is taken from the retailer via the commission platform and therefore is a little ‘thank you’ from the retailer for introducing you to said product. Each blog post will declare the use of affiliate links using (ad) if they are used and state if the blog post itself has been sponsored. If applicable, you will find these declarations at the very beginning of each post.
