Get Featured — Fashion and Beauty Product Feature Submissions

Quick answer: To get featured on Sixated, you can submit a fashion or beauty product for editorial consideration, or arrange a clearly labelled paid product feature. Editorial picks are chosen on merit and never for sale; paid features are always disclosed. Both are separate and clearly marked. Submit your product to be considered.

Key takeaways

  • Two routes: free editorial consideration, or a clearly labelled paid product feature.
  • Editorial picks: chosen on merit — never for sale, never guaranteed by gifting.
  • Paid features: disclosed under FTC guidelines and kept separate from editorial.
  • What helps: a genuinely relevant product, clear details and honest claims.
  • How: submit through our contact page with product information and samples on request.

What it means to get featured on Sixated

To get featured in fashion, beauty, wellness or lifestyle coverage on Sixated is to appear among our six curated picks or in a dedicated product feature. There are two honest ways this happens. The first is editorial: our team considers your product on merit for a relevant guide. The second is commercial: a clearly labelled paid product feature. We keep these strictly separate so readers always know which is which — and so a place in our independent picks stays something that has to be earned.

Editorial consideration (chosen on merit)

If you would like your product considered for our editorial guides, you can submit it for review. Being considered is not the same as being included: our picks and recommendations are never for sale, and a gifted product never guarantees a spot in our guides. What helps is genuine relevance to what our readers are looking for, clear and accurate product details, and claims we can substantiate. If your product is a strong fit, it may appear in a relevant guide, credited as an independent pick assessed under our review methodology.

Because each guide carries only six curated picks, competition for an editorial place is real, and inclusion is genuinely earned. We cannot promise a timeline or an outcome, and we will not tell you your product is in until it is. That may sound cautious, but it is the whole point: readers act on our picks precisely because they know a place cannot be bought or lobbied for, only merited.

Paid product feature (clearly labelled)

If you want a guaranteed placement, a paid product feature is the honest route. This is a dedicated, clearly labelled feature of your product — disclosed as commercial, written or reviewed to our standards, and kept separate from our editorial picks. A paid feature guarantees the placement and the disclosure label; it does not buy an independent endorsement or a place among our merit-based picks. It is ideal for a launch or a product you want reliably in front of our readers on a set date.

Even within a paid feature we keep the content honest and useful, because a labelled placement that reads as pure sales copy does little for anyone. We will present your product accurately and attractively, include the details readers need, and hold any claim to what you can support. If a paid feature and editorial consideration are both of interest, they can run as entirely separate things — the paid feature on your schedule, the editorial consideration on its own merits.

How to submit your product

Whichever route you have in mind, start the same way. Send us the product details — what it is, who it is for, price, availability and any relevant claims — through our contact page or to partners@sixated.com. Tell us whether you are seeking editorial consideration or a paid feature. We may request a sample or high-resolution images. For editorial consideration we will assess fit; for a paid feature we will share rates, timing and the disclosure that applies.

What makes a product easy to feature

  • Relevance — it genuinely fits a fashion, beauty, wellness or lifestyle guide our readers use.
  • Clarity — accurate details, honest positioning and a clear reason it stands out.
  • Substantiation — any claim can be backed up; nothing overstated.
  • Availability — readers can actually buy it, with a working link and current price.

How gifting works

We are happy to receive samples for honest consideration, and we will always tell the reader when a product was gifted. But gifting buys consideration, not coverage: it never guarantees inclusion in a guide or a favourable place in it. If a sample doesn’t earn its spot on merit, it won’t appear as an editorial pick — and that is exactly what makes our picks worth being part of.

Before sending anything, it is worth checking with us first, so a sample is genuinely useful rather than unsolicited. Tell us what the product is and which guide you think it suits, and we will let you know whether it is something we are actively assessing. If we do review it and it isn’t the right fit, we will not pretend otherwise — an honest no protects the value of every yes, and keeps our readers confident that a pick means what it says.

What we won’t do

We don’t sell places in our editorial picks, we don’t pass paid features off as independent endorsements, and we don’t sell undisclosed or disguised paid links. Every commercial placement is labelled. If you need a placement to look like an unpaid, independent recommendation, we cannot help — because that is precisely the trust we protect for readers and brands alike.

Why trust Sixated

Sixated is an independent fashion, beauty and lifestyle publication run by a named editorial team working to published standards. You can read more about us, meet the people behind our picks, and review our editorial policy and review methodology to see exactly how our six curated picks are chosen and tested. Any commercial relationship is set out in our affiliate disclosure, and every paid or gifted placement is labelled in line with the FTC endorsement guidelines. Our picks and recommendations are never for sale, and a gifted product never guarantees a spot in our guides.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get featured on Sixated?

Submit your product for editorial consideration or arrange a paid product feature through our contact page or partners@sixated.com. Tell us which route you want.

Can I pay to be in your editorial picks?

No. Editorial picks are chosen on merit and never for sale. You can instead book a clearly labelled paid product feature.

What is the difference between a pick and a paid feature?

An editorial pick is our independent recommendation; a paid product feature is a disclosed, brand-funded placement kept separate from editorial.

Does sending a sample guarantee coverage?

No. A gifted product is welcome for honest consideration but never guarantees inclusion or a favourable place in a guide, and gifting is disclosed.

How much does a paid product feature cost?

It depends on format and timing. Request current rates and availability when you submit your product.

What information should I send?

Product details, who it is for, price, availability and any claims. We may request a sample or high-resolution images.

How are paid features disclosed?

They are clearly labelled in line with the FTC endorsement guidelines so readers know the placement is commercial.

How will I know if my product is chosen editorially?

We assess fit against our review methodology and only include products that earn a place. We can’t guarantee editorial inclusion.

Can I pay to get featured on Sixated?

Independent editorial features are earned on merit, not paid. For guaranteed, scheduled placement choose clearly disclosed sponsored content.
