The "Ingredients" of Our Business
Full transparency on how we fund our passion for beauty.
At Jeokda Official, we believe you deserve to know exactly what goes into our content—just like you deserve to know what goes into your skincare.
Running a website, buying the latest palettes for review, and testing skincare products requires time and money. To keep this blog free for you to read, we use a few monetization methods. This page explains exactly how that works, so we can maintain a relationship built on trust.
🛍️ Affiliate Links
The Short Version: If you buy something through our links, we might earn a coffee’s worth of commission, at no extra cost to you.
The Details: Some of the links on Jeokda Official are "affiliate links." This means if you click on a link to a product (e.g., on Amazon, Sephora, or a brand site) and purchase it, we receive a small percentage of the sale.
This helps support the blog and allows us to continue creating free content.
🎁 PR Samples and Gifted Products
In the beauty industry, brands often send products to bloggers for consideration.
Our Policy:
- No Guaranteed Reviews: Accepting a free product does not guarantee a review.
- No Guaranteed Praise: A free product does not buy a positive opinion. If a product breaks us out or doesn't perform, we will tell you.
- Clear Labeling: If a product was gifted, we will clearly state "PR Sample" or "Gifted" at the top of the post.
🤝 Sponsored Posts
Occasionally, we may partner with a brand to create a dedicated post or video.
The Jeokda Standard: We only accept sponsorships from brands we genuinely like and believe will be useful to you. Even in sponsored content, the thoughts, experiences, and critiques remain 100% our own. Sponsored posts will always be marked clearly as #Sponsored or #Ad.
💖 Our Integrity Promise
We will never recommend a product we hate just to make a quick buck.
Our loyalty is to our readers (you), not to the brands. Your trust is the most valuable thing we own.
