The Style Edit believes in being transparent about commercial relationships with our readers.
Some content published on The Style Edit may contain affiliate links. This Affiliate Disclosure explains what those links are, how they may support our publication, and how we approach affiliate relationships.
What Are Affiliate Links?
Some links on The Style Edit may direct readers to products available from third-party retailers, brands, or shopping platforms.
Certain links may be affiliate links. If you click one of these links and make an eligible purchase or complete another qualifying action, The Style Edit may receive a commission or other compensation.
This generally does not result in an additional cost to you.
How We Use Affiliate Links
The Style Edit may include affiliate links when featuring clothing, accessories, hair-related products, styling products, tools, or other items relevant to our fashion and hair content.
Affiliate links may be provided through affiliate platforms, including Later Creator, as well as participating retailers, brands, or other affiliate networks we may work with.
The retailers, brands, products, and affiliate platforms available through these relationships may change over time.
Why We Use Affiliate Links
Operating an independent digital publication involves costs associated with maintaining and developing the website and producing and updating its content.
Affiliate commissions are one way The Style Edit may generate revenue to support the continued operation of the publication.
Readers are never required to purchase a product in order to access our regular editorial content.
Our Editorial Approach
The existence of an affiliate relationship does not change our commitment to providing useful and relevant content.
We aim to distinguish editorial content from commercial relationships and do not intentionally present paid or affiliate relationships as independent experiences when they are not.
The inclusion of a product in an article does not necessarily mean that The Style Edit has personally purchased, worn, used, or tested that product.
When we have not personally tested a product, we will not represent that we have.
Product references may instead be based on factors relevant to the particular article, such as style, design, color, materials, available specifications, intended use, retailer or manufacturer information, or how the product relates to the editorial subject being discussed.
Affiliate Disclosures Within Our Content
When content contains affiliate links, we may provide a disclosure within or near that content so readers can understand that qualifying purchases may generate compensation for The Style Edit.
For example, an article containing affiliate links may include a notice explaining that:
This article may contain affiliate links. The Style Edit may earn a commission from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you.
The presence of this Affiliate Disclosure page does not replace disclosures that may be appropriate within individual pieces of content.
Product Information
We aim to present product information accurately when it is included in our content.
However, prices, availability, sizing, colors, materials, specifications, promotions, shipping terms, and other product information may change after publication.
Readers should verify important purchasing information directly with the relevant retailer or brand before making a purchase.
Third-Party Retailers and Websites
Affiliate links may take readers to websites or services operated by independent third parties.
The Style Edit does not control the purchasing process, product availability, fulfillment, shipping, returns, warranties, customer service, privacy practices, or other policies of independent third-party retailers.
Any purchase made through a third-party website is subject to that retailer’s applicable terms and policies.
Our Relationship With Affiliate Platforms
The Style Edit may use third-party affiliate platforms to create, manage, or track affiliate links.
The use of an affiliate platform does not mean that every product, retailer, or brand mentioned on The Style Edit has directly sponsored or endorsed our publication.
Likewise, mentioning a brand or product does not necessarily indicate a commercial relationship with that brand.
Your Choice
Using an affiliate link is entirely optional.
Readers are free to visit a retailer directly, search for the same or similar products elsewhere, or choose not to make a purchase.
Our goal is to make product references useful within the context of our fashion and hair content while being transparent when a link may financially support The Style Edit.
