1. General Information
The information on pieldeterciopelo.com (“the Website” or “Piel de Terciopelo”) is for general informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only. All content reflects the author’s personal experience and opinions and does not constitute professional advice (medical, dermatological, pharmaceutical, nutritional, legal, financial, or otherwise). Operated from Spain (EU), accessible worldwide.
2. Not Medical or Dermatological Advice
Skincare and haircare tips, skincare routines, active ingredient recommendations, and cosmetic product reviews are based on the author’s personal experience and general cosmetic sources. They do not in any way replace consultation with a dermatologist, physician, pharmacist, or other qualified healthcare professional.
If you have any skin condition (severe acne, rosacea, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, melasma, or others), are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication that may affect your skin, or have any doubt about the suitability of an ingredient or product for your particular case, please consult a healthcare professional before following the Website’s recommendations.
The Owner is not responsible for diagnoses, treatments, or medical decisions users may make based on the Website’s content.
3. Allergic Reactions and Sensitivities
Cosmetic products and active ingredients mentioned on the Website may cause allergic reactions, irritation, sensitivity, or adverse effects in certain individuals. Every skin is different, and a product that works well for the author may not be suitable for all users.
The Owner strongly recommends always performing a patch test before incorporating any new product into your routine, especially products containing acids (AHA, BHA, PHA), retinoids, vitamin C, tranexamic acid, niacinamide, or other potent active ingredients. Apply a small amount to the inner forearm or behind the ear, wait at least 24-48 hours, and observe for redness, itching, swelling, or any other reaction.
The Owner is not responsible for adverse reactions, allergies, irritation, or any other unwanted effects from using products or ingredients mentioned on the Website.
4. Active Ingredients and Cosmetics
The “La Botica” section and other articles provide information about active cosmetic ingredients (acids, peptides, antioxidants, etc.). This information is educational and does not constitute pharmaceutical prescription or therapeutic recommendation.
Use of potent active ingredients (such as glycolic acid, retinol, salicylic acid, tranexamic acid, or high-concentration vitamin C) requires caution and, in many cases, professional guidance. Some of these ingredients may increase photosensitivity, making adequate sun protection essential during use.
The Owner is not responsible for effects from combining active ingredients, using inappropriate concentrations, or applying products without proper caution.
5. Sun Protection
The Website may include reviews and recommendations of vegan sunscreens. Sun protection is fundamental for skin health, but the Website’s recommendations do not replace a dermatologist’s advice on the appropriate SPF for each user based on their phototype, geographic location, and activity.
The Owner is not responsible for sunburn, skin damage, or any other adverse effects from insufficient or inadequate sun protection.
6. “Vegan” and “Cruelty-Free” Claims
Claims about products being vegan (no animal-derived ingredients) and cruelty-free (no animal testing) are based on brand-provided information, certifications (such as Leaping Bunny, PETA, Vegan Society, or others), and the author’s personal research at the time of publication.
However, the Owner cannot independently verify all formulations, manufacturing practices, or supply chains. Product formulations may change without notice. Users should verify directly with brands and check updated ingredient lists (INCI) before purchasing, especially for strict vegan or cruelty-free requirements.
The Owner is not responsible if a product mentioned as vegan or cruelty-free ceases to be so after publication due to formulation, brand policy, or supply chain changes.
7. Accuracy of Content
The Owner strives for accuracy based on reliable sources. However, cosmetics is a constantly evolving sector (new formulations, regulatory changes, ingredient research), and information may become outdated. Prices, availability, and formulations may change without notice.
8. Affiliate Links and Sponsored Content
The Website may contain affiliate links. Purchases through them may earn the Owner a commission at no extra cost. Disclosed per FTC guidelines (16 CFR Part 255). Only personally tested or quality products aligned with vegan beauty are recommended. The Owner is not responsible for third-party product quality, performance, or safety.
9. Website Availability
No guarantee of continuous availability. The Owner is not liable for damages from interruptions.
10. User Responsibility
You are responsible for your use of the Website and decisions based on its content, including product purchases, active ingredient application, routine changes, or sun protection. Skincare advice is followed at your own risk. The Owner is not liable for any damages, including allergic reactions, irritation, skin damage, or adverse effects.
11. Third-Party Content
The Website may link to or embed third-party content (tutorials, social media posts, brand resources). The Owner does not control and is not responsible for third-party content.
12. Use by Minors
The Website targets adult and young-adult audiences interested in skincare and conscious beauty. Minors should be supervised, especially regarding personal data, purchasing cosmetics, and using products with active ingredients that may not be suitable for developing skin.
Per COPPA, we do not knowingly collect data from children under 13 without parental consent.
