Corrections Policy
Formula Clarity aims to correct material errors, clarify unclear wording, update outdated product or source information, and preserve reader trust when beauty and skincare information changes.
What counts as a correction issue
Correction issues may include factual errors, outdated product labels, broken or incorrect source links, missing affiliate disclosures, unclear evidence labels, formula-version mismatch, inaccurate price context, misquoted claims, privacy concerns, or wording that overstates what the evidence supports.
How to submit a correction
Send the article or page URL, a concise description of the concern, the relevant sentence or section, and any supporting source. If the issue relates to a product, include the product name, brand, size or version if known, and the date of the label or source you are referencing.
Review process
We review correction requests by checking the page, the cited sources, the original evidence record if available, and any new source supplied. We may also check official product, retailer, regulatory, or manufacturer information where relevant. If a correction involves higher-risk health wording, the page may be held, reframed, or routed for qualified review before being updated.
Possible outcomes
Correction
A factual error is fixed, and material changes should be noted on the page or in the update record.
Clarification
The original statement was not necessarily wrong, but the wording was ambiguous, incomplete, or missing an important limitation.
No-change decision
The request is reviewed, but the evidence does not support changing the page. We may still improve wording if it helps readers.
Updates versus corrections
Not every change is a correction. Prices, product availability, retailer pages, packaging, formulas, regulatory context, and affiliate terms can change over time. A dated update may be used when the prior statement was accurate at the time but needs current context.
Material changes
A material change is one that could affect a reader’s understanding, buying decision, safety boundary, product comparison, disclosure, or trust in the article. Material changes should identify what changed and, when useful, when the relevant source was rechecked.
Retractions or withdrawals
If a page cannot be corrected without risking misinformation, unsupported health claims, privacy problems, or serious reader confusion, Formula Clarity may remove, redirect, noindex, or replace the page while the issue is investigated.
Abuse and off-topic requests
We may decline requests that are abusive, spam, promotional, unsupported, unrelated to the page, or designed to pressure coverage rather than correct accuracy. Brands and merchants are welcome to report factual issues, but commercial preference does not control editorial conclusions.
