What This Page Is About
InnerSpiritGlow uses affiliate links to support our website and help us keep creating quality beauty and health content for you. This page explains how our affiliate program works, which companies we partner with, and how you benefit from it.
Bottom line: We only recommend products we genuinely believe in. Your trust matters more to us than making money.
What Are Affiliate Links?
When we recommend a product or service on InnerSpiritGlow, we might include a special link. If you click that link and buy something, we earn a small commission.
Here's the important part:
You don't pay extra — The price stays the same for you
We get paid by the company — Not by you
We only recommend products we actually use and trust — Never something just because it pays commission
Think of it like this: if your friend recommends a good skincare product and gets a small reward for bringing a customer, you still pay the same price. That's basically how affiliate links work.
Why Do We Use Affiliate Links?
We're honest: affiliate commissions help us:
Pay for website hosting and maintenance
Keep creating free content for you (no paywalls, no subscriptions)
Buy products to test and review fairly (beauty products, supplements, health tools)
Hire writers and editors to improve our content
Research ingredients and ingredients for honest reviews
Without these commissions, we couldn't keep InnerSpiritGlow running. So we appreciate your support when you use our links.
How We Choose Products to Recommend
We don't just recommend anything. Here's our process:
We research thoroughly — We look at real customer reviews, ingredients, clinical studies, and claims
We test products ourselves — We try beauty products, supplements, wellness tools before recommending
We check ingredients — We verify that products are safe and effective
We only recommend if it's genuinely good — Even if it pays commission
We disclose the relationship — We tell you upfront it's an affiliate link
We consider your needs — Not what makes us the most money
We won't recommend a product just because it pays commission.
If we genuinely don't think something works, we say so — even if we get paid for it.

What We Won't Do
To keep your trust, here's what we never do:
We don't recommend products just for commission — If it's not good, we won't promote it
We don't hide affiliate links — We always disclose clearly
We don't exaggerate product benefits — We're honest about what works and what doesn't
We don't trick you into clicking — We explain what you're clicking on
We don't sell your data to partners — Affiliate companies never get your personal information from us
We don't push affiliate links on every page — We recommend only when it genuinely helps you
We don't recommend unsafe products — We prioritize your health and safety over commission
How Much Commission Do We Make?
Commission rates vary by company and product:
Amazon Associates: Usually 3-5% of the purchase price
ClickBank: Usually 50% commission on digital products (with their structure)
Nykaa: Varies by product, typically 5-10%
Other retailers & brands: 5-20% depending on the product
Affiliate networks: Varies widely
This means: If you buy a $100 beauty product through our link, we might earn $3-20. The price you pay doesn't change.
You help support us at no extra cost to you.
Your Questions Answered
Will Using Your Link Cost Me More?
No. The price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to the store. We earn commission from the company, not from you.
Why Should I Use Your Link if I Can Buy Directly?
Great question! You don't have to. But if you're going to buy anyway, using our link helps us keep creating free content for you. It's your choice, and we appreciate it either way.
Can I Trust Your Reviews if You Get Paid?
We understand your concern. Here's the truth: we only recommend products we genuinely use and believe in. Commission doesn't change that. If anything, we're extra careful because your trust is more valuable than any commission. We test products thoroughly and only recommend those we'd use ourselves.
What If I Don't Want to Use Affiliate Links?
We get it. You can always:
Find products directly on Google or the company's website
Search for products without using our links
Let us know you'd prefer non-affiliate recommendations
Your choice. We're just happy you're reading our content.
Do You Recommend Competitors' Products?
Yes, absolutely. If a competitor's product is genuinely better for your needs, we'll recommend it — even though we don't earn commission from that company. Your health and satisfaction come first.
How Do You Decide Which Affiliate Programs to Join?
We join programs for:
Companies we already love and use
Products that fit our audience's needs
Partners with good reputation and customer service
Fair commission rates
Companies aligned with our health and wellness mission
We turn down affiliate offers for products we don't believe in, even if the commission is high.
Do You Test Every Product You Recommend?
We try to, yes. For beauty and health products, we either:
Test the product ourselves
Research peer-reviewed studies and clinical data
Read verified customer reviews
Check ingredient lists and safety profiles
If we can't verify quality, we don't recommend it.
