🌟 FAQ – Your Questions Answered
Welcome to the Life Inside the Page FAQ — a cozy little corner where I answer the most common questions from readers like you! Whether you’re wondering how I find sneak peeks, what’s in my tracker, or where to shop — it’s all below.
🛍️ Shopping + Product Info
Q: Where do you find new Bath & Body Works products so early?
A: I keep a close eye on store resets, floor set patterns, sneak peeks, online releases, and leaks that pop up in the fragrance community. Sometimes it’s just being in the right place at the right time!
Q: Do you shop more online or in stores?
A: A little bit of both! I love browsing in stores for seasonal displays and exclusive collections, but I also shop online occasionally to catch early access and online-only items.
Q: How do you keep track of new releases?
A: I maintain the “Next on the Page” tracker in real time! Notebook after Notebook over the years. It’s updated frequently as new collections roll out, including what’s confirmed, rumored, or launching soon.
Q: Do you work with Bath & Body Works?
A: No, I am not affiliated with or sponsored by Bath & Body Works. I’m simply a fan who shares what I find — as I have since 2009!
Q: What if I don’t see a product in my store that you shared?
A: Some items may be store-exclusive, regional, test-only, or delayed. I try to mention when something is rumored or online-only, but availability can vary.
📸 Sneak Peeks + Photos
Q: Are the photos you post your own?
A: Most of the time, yes — unless otherwise noted. I always credit outside sources when I use them.
Q: Can I repost your content?
A: Please don’t repost my photos or full blog content without permission. You're welcome to share my blog link or reference a post — with credit!
Q: Where do these early product images come from?
A: I gather them from in-store floor sets, test stores, marketing previews, and sources within the fragrance community.

🎁 Reviews + Products
Q: Do you get free products to review?
A: Occasionally, in the beginning of my blogging some brands reached out to me to review their products, and I did share my in-depth thoughts on all of them. Everything you see that I share are the things I purchased. If a product was gifted for review, I always say so.
Q: Do you make money from your posts?
A: Some posts may include affiliate links or ads, but they never affect my opinion. I always give my honest experience.
