This subreddit is about skincare, and we’d like to keep that the focus. Disallowed topics include: haircare, makeup, eyebrows, eyelashes, etc. It’s fine if you’re having a chat with someone and you happen to share cat pics or talk about makeup, we won’t clamp down on that. But in general, we’d like the sub to stay on topic. We don’t allow politics except in the context of skincare, to make sure that the sub a) stays focused on its main topic and b) continues to be a pleasant place to hang out. - Follow our post requirements
* Copy and paste a [valid tag](https://www.reddit.com/r/SkincareAddiction/wiki/how_to/post/valid_title_tags) in your post title. * No simple or low-effort questions as standalone posts. * Every Selfie/B&A must include a full routine. * Every Haul, Shelfie, & Review must include specific information. * Wednesdays are text-post only. * Humor & Cringe on Fridays only.

Used as a reporting rule
What the written rules don't show
- Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
- Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
- The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
Let your AI read the rules before it posts.
ThreadFox reads a community's current rules, writes a post that fits them, posts once with Reddit's Brand affiliate tag and checks it stayed up. The free ThreadFox Lite reads rules too.
