Policies and Disclaimers

Hey there, food-loving friends!

I want to be completely transparent—Being Jess Than Perfect is a passion project that I fund entirely out of my own pocket. Right now, I do not participate in affiliate programs or receive sponsorships. Every recipe, recommendation, and product I mention is simply something I personally love and use in my own kitchen.

That being said, I’m open to working with brands that align with my values and my commitment to simple, delicious, no-fuss meals. If and when I do partner with a brand or join an affiliate program, I promise to only share products I truly believe in—because trust and authenticity mean everything to me.

Thanks for being here and for supporting Being Jess Than Perfect! Your visits, shares, and kind words mean the world. Now, let’s get cooking!

1. 💛 Jess

At Being Jess Than Perfect, I love sharing my thoughts on products, kitchen gadgets, ingredients, and restaurants that make life easier and meals tastier. Whether it’s a must-have cooking tool or a dining experience worth talking about, my reviews are always honest, unbiased, and based on my personal experience.

I review products and restaurants that I personally use, visit, or find interesting. If a brand or restaurant ever reaches out with a request for a review, I will only accept if it aligns with my values and the kind of content my readers expect—authentic, useful, and down-to-earth.

As of now, I do not receive compensation for any reviews. If that ever changes in the future, I will clearly disclose any partnerships, sponsorships, or gifted products to maintain full transparency.

Whether I purchase an item myself or receive it as a gift, my review will always be 100% my own opinion—no sugarcoating, no exaggeration. If I love something, I’ll tell you why. If I don’t, I’ll be honest about that too!

Food is personal, and dining experiences can vary. My restaurant reviews reflect my own tastes, preferences, and experiences at the time of my visit. A place I rave about might not be for everyone, and that’s okay! I encourage readers to try things for themselves and form their own opinions.

Trust is everything to me. My goal is to help my readers make informed decisions about the products they buy and the places they eat—because life’s too short for bad meals and useless gadgets!

If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to reach out. Thanks for trusting my taste buds!
