Tati is an odd one - we know she spends an incredible amount herself and really likes testing things for herself (one time, after she bought a bunch of really spendy stuff from some near-highest end line, she said seriously that she was doing it for us - I rolled my eyes, because no); but she's too often bad about saying she received things for free and/or if links are affiliate links. when she does say it (I think she really had to for the recent too faced metallic melted lip products, for example), it's refreshing.
I wish the FTC would crackdown, so people will be better about disclosing.
I like what UK folks are made to do now - say in the titles that it's an ad and disclose it elsewhere, too. I don't mind those who intermix free products or even outright ads with other things (fleur is the best at this of those I follow). I'll still watch if they don't try to be shady and/or fake. "right, you show high end 99% of the time, but are suddenly raving about head & shoulders haircare?!" ick.
