Editorial Integrity

We make a clear distinction between editorial and advertorial content. Makeup Guidance team members who work on content do not work in advertising.
The Makeup Guidance Editorial Team does not give preferential treatment to any outside resource (brand, publication, or video). In articles where an external link/resource is relevant to the topic and useful to a reader, appropriate disclosures are made in accordance with FTC guidelines. Articles written in association with brands are clearly labeled ‘Sponsored’ and do not reflect the opinions of the editorial team. Read our advertising policy.
Use Of AI
Written Content
At Makeup Guidance, we use artificial intelligence (AI) responsibly and judiciously in our content production processes. Although we might leverage AI to enhance the content created by our editorial team, we do not publish any AI-generated content directly on our website. Instead, such AI-created content undergoes a thorough human review process to ensure accuracy, relevance, and alignment with our editorial standards.
Here is the approach we adopt with AI content:
Our experienced editorial team carefully verifies the AI-generated content for factual accuracy and overall quality.
The content is then reviewed for tone, style, and coherence to ensure it aligns with our editorial standards and values.
Our team of writers and editors ensures that the content complies with our stringent guidelines on topics related to beauty, health, and wellness.
This approach ensures that all content on our website is curated, refined, and human-centered, providing you with the most valuable and trustworthy information.
