Use efficient cache lifetimes
6.2 s · 1.1 MB18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.1 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
4.7 s · 944 KiBAbout 944 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.7 s faster on a phone.
Duplicated JavaScript
2.1 s · 485 KiB485 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (route.com, Clarity and Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and others), adding 1.5 MB and 968 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 52
52/100Your mobile performance score is 52. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
900 ms · 89 KiBAbout 89 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
route.com adds 632 ms
632 msroute.com costs a phone 632 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 MB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Render-blocking requests
500 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 382 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Main-thread work: 2.8 s
A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 16 KiB1 image could be 16 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 14 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 18.3 s
18.3 sYour largest element takes 18.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Introducing Eau d'Italie Acqua di Positano Candle. Escape t…”.
Time to Interactive: 20.8 s
20.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 20.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.7 s
7.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 560 ms
560 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 560 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 2.0 s
2.0 sThe first text or image appears after 2.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.3 MB in 230 requests
3.3 MBYour homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 230 requests on a phone: scripts 1.8 MB (59), other files 880 KiB (143) and images 301 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
88 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example EDI_liquidsoap_lotion_oct2023_2000px.jpg at 2,000 px wide, shown at 358 px. Resized copies would save about 88 KiB.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.93 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.93 g of CO₂e: 112.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility
3 tap targets too small
3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
1 image without alt text

46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is short (29 characters)
Your title is only 29 characters: “Beauty Frontier Official Site”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
Meta description is long (179 characters)
Your meta description is 179 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
70 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 70 pages on beautyfrontier.com and 4 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://beautyfrontier.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.
robots.txt in place

AI search readiness
4 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (466 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://beautyfrontier.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/altaia-fragrances and https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/fragrances all use the title “ALTAIA – Beauty Frontier”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
1 page without a meta description
https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/ligne-st-barth has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages share a meta description
https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/altaia-fragrances and https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/fragrances use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/fragrances, whose canonical is https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/altaia-fragrances. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
2 pages without an H1
https://beautyfrontier.com/pages/altaia and https://beautyfrontier.com/pages/eau-d-italie have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
