AccidentalBeauty is a personal blog written and edited by me. I accept forms of cash advertising, sponsorship, or paid insertions.

The compensation received will never influence the content, topics or posts made in this blog. All advertising is in the form of advertisements generated by a third party ad network. Those advertisements will be identified as paid advertisements.

I will not be compensated to provide opinion on products, services, websites and various other topics. The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely my own. If I claim or appear to be an expert on a certain topic or product or service area, I will only endorse products or services that I believe, based on my expertise, are worthy of such endorsement. Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer or provider.

In plain English:

• The disclosure above basically means that ALL opinions are my own and absolutely will not be influenced by ANY third parties whatsoever. Expect nothing but my honest opinion.
• ALL products mentioned on this blog were purchased by me with my own money unless noted otherwise in the actual post.

Readers must know:

• The purpose of this blog is to share and provide information and personal experiences with various products available for purchase.
• I am not a certified expert or doctor, therefore you should only take my comments and thoughts about any given product discussed on this blog, as opinion only – NOT gospel.
• I can speak only for myself on this blog. Bottom line, not everything featured on this blog will work for the reader.

Reader discussion:

• Readers are welcome to leave their personal thoughts and/or opinions on any given topic in the comments area of each post.
• I remain the right to remove any offensive comments/disrespectful at any time, and in worse-case scenarios, block the offender from accessing the site altogether.
• Each comment will show up after it’s been moderated. This is to prevent spam (which I get a lot of).
• If there is a comment left that I find to be helpful or insightful, I will seek your permission to use your quote in a later post.

Private Sale Invite links:

The list of private sales links in the sidebar are to premiere websites that offer high-end cosmetics, clothing and accessories at deeply discounted prices. To access these sites you must be invited. Clicking the private sales links and signing up is your official invite and then you are welcome to invite your own friends and family using your customized invite link. I receive a minimum $10 credit anytime you make your first purchase after signing up with my invite link. When friends and family sign up under your link, then you get a credit and so on and so forth.
