Affiliate Links & Recommendations
Some of the links on SkincareStarter.com are “affiliate links.”
If you click a product link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission—at no additional cost to you. This helps keep the site running and lets us continue creating free educational content.
- What we promote: Only products we genuinely believe can benefit beginner and intermediate skincare users.
- No sponsored influence: Brands cannot buy placement or priority in our reviews; opinions remain 100% our own.
- Programs we belong to:
Why We Disclose
The U.S. FTC and similar regulations in Canada require that websites inform readers when they use affiliate links or receive any form of compensation. Transparency also helps you trust that our recommendations are made honestly.
Your Cost & Choices
Clicking an affiliate link never increases your price. If you’d rather not use our links, you can navigate directly to the retailer’s site in a separate tab.
