Editorial Policy

Beauty Vantage is an independent editorial publication covering beauty science, product intelligence, and the business of the beauty industry. This policy describes how our work is commissioned, reported, edited, and published.

Ownership and funding

Beauty Vantage is published by Vantage Media Group LLC, founded in 2026 and headquartered at 228 Park Avenue South, Suite 41, New York, NY 10003. The publication is funded by advertising, affiliate commerce, and reader contributions. Funding sources have no influence over editorial judgment.

Sourcing and verification

Every original report is sourced from named experts, peer-reviewed literature, regulatory filings, or first-hand testing. Claims about safety, efficacy, or ingredient function are verified against primary research or a credentialed dermatologist, chemist, or toxicologist. Anonymous sourcing is used only when a source faces retaliation and the information is independently corroborated.

Editing and fact-checking

No story publishes without review by a second editor. Reported features covering health claims are additionally fact-checked line by line before publication.

Aggregated and external items

Headlines in The Wire are aggregated from publicly available RSS feeds of third-party outlets and are clearly attributed and linked to the originating publisher. We do not republish full text from other outlets.

AI disclosure

Generative AI is not used to write or draft published editorial copy. Where AI assists with research triage or transcription, a human editor verifies the output.
