Disclaimer

1. This site carries advertising

Dermal Stories publishes sponsored consumer features, commonly called advertorials. An advertorial is an advertisement written in an editorial voice. It is not a news report, not an independent product review, not a consumer-protection notice, and not a medical publication.

Every sponsored page on this site carries a visible “Advertorial” label above the headline and a full disclosure block at the foot of the article. If you are reading a page with those markings, treat it as advertising.

2. Narratives and personas

Personal stories that appear in our advertorials are written as promotional material. Where a first-person narrator is used, that narrator is an editorial persona created for the advertisement, and the experiences described are illustrative of outcomes some customers report rather than a documentary record of one named individual's experience.

Reader comments and testimonials are presented with first names and initials only. They are individual accounts and are not a prediction of what will happen for you.

3. Cosmetic products are cosmetic

Products featured on this site are cosmetics. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition. Where a featured product produces a visible effect, that effect is cosmetic and, unless clearly stated otherwise, temporary.

Nothing on this site is medical advice, and reading it does not create a clinical relationship of any kind. If you have an eye condition, a skin condition, an allergy history, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are under the care of a dermatologist or physician, speak to that professional before starting a new product. Stop using any product immediately if you experience irritation, and seek medical attention if a reaction is severe or affects your vision.

4. Results vary

Photographs, statistics, panel results and customer reports reproduced on this site come from the manufacturer or from individual customers, and we attribute them as such on the page. They represent particular outcomes under particular conditions. Skin type, age, how a product is applied, and countless other factors mean your own result may be better, worse, or simply different. No outcome is promised or guaranteed.

Where we reproduce a manufacturer's study, we identify it as the manufacturer's own study. We have not independently verified those results and we do not present them as independent evidence.

5. How we earn money

Dermal Stories LLC has a financial relationship with the advertisers featured on this site. When a visitor follows a link from one of our pages to a merchant and completes a qualifying action, we are paid a referral fee. That fee is the extent of our relationship with the merchant. It does not increase the price you pay.

This relationship is a commercial one and readers should factor it in when weighing anything they read on a sponsored page.

6. We are not the seller

We do not manufacture, sell, ship, or fulfil any product. We do not operate a checkout and we never handle your payment details. All purchases are made on the merchant's own website under the merchant's own terms of sale, privacy policy, shipping policy and refund policy.

Prices, discounts, bundle contents, delivery times, guarantee terms and stock levels are set by the merchant and change without notice. Any figure quoted on this site was accurate when written and may not be accurate now. Always confirm the current terms on the merchant's own site before ordering.

7. Third-party sites

Outbound links leave dermalstories.com. We have no control over what those sites publish, how they handle your data, or how they treat you as a customer, and we accept no responsibility for their content or their conduct.

8. Accuracy and limitation of liability

We take reasonable care with what we publish, but we make no warranty that the content of this site is complete, current, or free from error. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Dermal Stories LLC accepts no liability for any loss or damage arising from reliance on anything published here, or from any purchase made from a third-party merchant.
