Of course! Unpaid means I have not been paid to promote the product, sample means it was sent by the brand, I didn’t buy it, affiliate means that if you click on the link and make a purchase I may receive a small % of the price of the product (and trust me, it’s small - for example, it’s 3% for Superdrug where the Trouble Maker products are) and ‘ad’ is a requirement from the ASA if I have been sent the product rather than buying it - I’m considered in this blanket ruling to be advertising the product. Conversely, if I am paid to write about a product the only thing I need to declare, before the reader starts to read is AD. I didn’t make the rules!
Looks amazing. And easily accessible. At those prices it's surely worth reviewing more of the range?!
Very accessible, and yes, I may do :-)
You're a trouble maker (sorry couldnt resist) - 100% influnenced on this and a shiny lip gloss is on its way - it looks so pretty on you !
Haha! And I hope you love it!
For a relative newcomer to your Substack, please could you quickly explain what the various disclaimers mean? (And thank you for your transparency.)
