Disclosure

TO MY READERS OF MICHXMASH

I solemnly swear I will always post honest reviews.

As much as I’d love the thought of being able to blog full-time and make income that way, I actually am in the midst of pursuing a new career. This blog is my hobby, my creative outlet, and I’m just sharing my trials and tribulations in pursuit to clear skin. PR Samples helps me save money. Otherwise, if I want a product, I will buy it. I’ve been blogging for a few years now and I just wanted to make this clear when you come to my website.
Please see: About Me

PR SAMPLES, AFFILIATE LINKS, SPONSORSHIPS:

All disclosures related to the following will be placed at the TOP of the post as of April 17, 2019:
– PR samples given in exchange for review
– PR samples with no review expectations
– Affiliate Links on bulk reviews, hauls, empties, etc. If it a sole product review, the disclosure will be near the link. See below the companies I signed up with and what using my affiliate links mean.

All thoughts are my own, always *casts patronus*

Banish Acne Scars – A local U.S. company that’s on a mission to help acne sufferers clear their skin! I’ve tried most of their products and have seen results. They cater to a specific demographic – those who want minimal, natural ingredients that are meant to improve acne and help heal the aftermath.

How I Review Products & Edit Photos

Skincare
– Will test for at least 2 weeks
– If it is related to acne will try to document before / afters. Please keep in mind I’m using topical prescriptions to maintain control over acne.

Makeup
– Try to get any swatches in natural light

Photo Editing:
– If the photo is too dark, I usually just adjust exposure and lighting to get the most accurate colour of my face or product.

My photos can only be used by me and no one else.
