About Us:
Jen Mathews, Founder/Editor-in-Chief
I’m a self-confessed beauty and makeup junkie! I have had a life-long love of animals and beauty products, so I decided to put my two loves together and form this cruelty-free beauty blog. I was born in Louisiana but Los Angeles has been my home for the last 10 years. I tried to move away, but LA pulled me back in. Love it here!
For companies interested in my services, I offer social media set-up, strategy and management, as well as PR and blogger outreach. My background is in traditional and web marketing – you can see more about me on my LinkedIn page. For inquiries or quotes, contact me at jen at toptiermedia dot com or visit www.toptiermedia.com.

Product Submission:
We only review health, beauty and lifestyle products that are not tested on animals or made from ingredients that are not currently being tested on animals (more on that here). Although many of the products we review are natural and organic, it is not required for us to review them. Our focus is on cruelty-free products. If you’d like us to review your product, please fill out the form here.
We highly recommend using Google Alerts to monitor media write-ups and customer discussion about your brand.

Delivered by FeedBurner
Please note that we are 100% honest in our reviews, and we don’t like to write negative articles. If your product does not work for the first tester, we will pass it on to a second tester. If the product was not satisfactory to both testers, we will opt to NOT write a review. We only want to share the good stuff with our readers.
Guest Blog Posts:
We welcome guest blog posts from freelance writers. We only ask that all products referenced be cruelty-free. We will include a link to your website, but of course, we have final editorial control over all content, and we will edit if necessary. Links to specific products or corporate websites will fall under the sponsored post category. Please inquire about current sponsored post rates.
