Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: December 26, 2025

Important Information: This page contains complete information about our affiliate relationships. We believe in full transparency with our readers.

Amazon Associates Program

Katharine Beauty 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, Amazon.ca, Amazon.co.uk, and other Amazon sites.

This means that when you click on a link to an Amazon product on our site and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. The price you pay remains the same as if you went directly to Amazon.

How It Works

1. Affiliate Links

On our website, you will find special links to Amazon products. These links contain our unique affiliate identifier, which allows Amazon to track that a purchase was made through our site.

2. Your Purchase

When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase within 24 hours (or add an item to your cart and purchase within 89 days), we receive a small commission from Amazon.

3. No Additional Cost to You

It's important to understand: using our affiliate links does not increase the price for you. You pay exactly the same amount as you would if you visited Amazon directly.

Our Principles and Commitments

Honesty Above All

We only recommend products that:

  • We have personally tested or thoroughly researched
  • We believe are high quality and effective
  • Match their advertised claims
  • Provide real value to our readers

We will never recommend a product just because it earns us a commission. Our reputation and your trust are far more important than short-term profit.

Independent Reviews

All our reviews and recommendations are based on:

  • Personal experience using products
  • Analysis of ingredients and formulations
  • Research of other user reviews
  • Professional beauty expertise
  • Comparison with similar products

We highlight both the pros and cons of each product so you can make an informed decision.

Clear Disclosure

On every page with affiliate links, you will see a clear notice that the content contains affiliate links. We believe transparency is the foundation of a trusting relationship with our readers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the affiliate partnership affect your recommendations?

No. We recommend products based on their quality and effectiveness, not potential commission. If a product doesn't meet expectations, we'll honestly tell you, even if it's an affiliate product.

Do you receive free products from brands?

Sometimes brands send us products to review. In such cases, we always clearly indicate this at the beginning of the article. However, receiving a free product does not affect our honest assessment - we always write the truth.

Why do you use affiliate links?

Affiliate commissions help us:

  • Maintain and develop the blog
  • Purchase new products for testing
  • Create quality, detailed content
  • Pay for hosting and technical support
  • Dedicate more time to research and reviews

Am I required to buy through your links?

Absolutely not! You can:

  • Use information from our reviews to find products in any store
  • Go directly to Amazon and find the product yourself
  • Buy the product in a physical store

We appreciate it if you use our links, but it's entirely your choice. Our goal is to provide you with useful information regardless of where you decide to purchase the product.

Other Affiliate Programs

In addition to Amazon Associates, we may also participate in other affiliate programs, such as:

  • Individual cosmetics brand programs
  • Other retail affiliate networks

All such relationships will be clearly disclosed in the relevant content.

Your Support

Using our affiliate links is a simple way to support our blog without spending extra money. Every purchase made through our links helps us:

  • Test more products
  • Create more detailed reviews
  • Conduct comparative tests
  • Share honest and independent opinions

Thank you for your support! We greatly value the trust of our readers and will continue to provide honest, detailed, and helpful reviews of cosmetics and beauty products.
