Affiliate Disclosure

Last Updated: January 18, 2025

Our Commitment to Transparency

RazorBumps.org is dedicated to helping you achieve smooth, bump-free skin through honest, research-backed advice. We believe in complete transparency about how we fund this site and the relationships we have with product manufacturers and retailers.

Affiliate Relationships

RazorBumps.org participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program and other affiliate advertising programs. These programs are designed to provide a means for sites like ours to earn advertising fees by linking to products on Amazon.com and other retailers.

What this means: When you click on certain links to products on our site and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. This helps us cover the costs of running this site, including product testing, research, content creation, and hosting.

Our Editorial Independence

Your trust is our priority. Here's our promise to you:

  • Honest recommendations: We only recommend products we've personally tested or thoroughly researched. Our opinions are our own and are not influenced by commission rates.
  • No pay-for-play: Companies cannot pay us to recommend their products or influence our rankings. Our reviews are based solely on performance, value, and suitability for preventing razor bumps.
  • Real testing: When we say we've tested 50+ razors, we mean it. We purchase most products with our own money and test them extensively before recommending them.
  • Negative reviews too: If a product doesn't work well for preventing razor bumps, we'll tell you—even if it has an affiliate program.

Which Links Are Affiliate Links?

Product links in our articles and guides may be affiliate links. These are typically identified by:

  • Links to Amazon.com products
  • Links to other retailers' product pages
  • Text that says "affiliate link" or similar disclosure near the link

Links to our own content (articles, guides, etc.) are never affiliate links.

How We Choose What to Recommend

Our product recommendations are based on:

  1. Personal testing: We personally test products whenever possible, following specific protocols for razor bumps prevention and treatment.
  2. Scientific research: We consult dermatological studies and expert opinions on ingredients and techniques.
  3. User feedback: We consider reviews, testimonials, and feedback from real users dealing with razor bumps.
  4. Value assessment: We evaluate whether products are worth their price point and offer good value for addressing razor bumps.

Your Purchases Don't Cost Extra

Using our affiliate links costs you nothing extra. The price you pay is exactly the same as if you went directly to the retailer's website. The retailer pays us a small commission from their profit margin—it doesn't come out of your pocket.

If you find a better price elsewhere, we encourage you to buy there! Our goal is to help you solve your razor bump problem, not to make a commission.

Other Ways We Earn

In addition to affiliate commissions, we may earn money through:

  • Display advertising (clearly marked as ads)
  • Sponsored content (always labeled as "Sponsored" or "Advertisement")
  • Digital product sales (guides, courses, etc.)

All sponsored content and advertising is clearly labeled and separated from our editorial content.

Questions About Our Disclosure?

We're committed to transparency. If you have questions about our affiliate relationships, product recommendations, or editorial standards, please contact us at contact@razorbumps.org

Legal Compliance

This disclosure is in compliance with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and testimonials. We follow the FTC's requirements to clearly and conspicuously disclose affiliate relationships.

Bottom Line

We only recommend products that we believe will genuinely help with razor bumps. Our recommendations would be the same whether or not we earned a commission. Your trust is more valuable to us than any affiliate commission.
