Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
4.5 s · 949 KiB29 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (949 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.6 s · 654 KiBAbout 654 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.6 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
1.1 s · 739 KiB31 images could be 739 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Main-thread work: 5.0 s
A phone's processor spends 5.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (quickcep.com, Shopify and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 55
55/100Your mobile performance score is 55. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 287 KiBAbout 287 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Minify CSS
450 ms · 119 KiB119 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
quickcep.com adds 312 ms
312 msquickcep.com costs a phone 312 ms of main-thread work and 565 KiB 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.
Shopify adds 286 ms
286 msShopify costs a phone 286 ms of main-thread work and 671 KiB 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.
2,172 HTML elements
The page has 2,172 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 236 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 22 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 22 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.
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.

Server response: 13 ms

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 26.0 s
26.0 sYour largest element takes 26.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 26.2 s
26.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 26.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.5 s
7.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Tap response (INP) got 31% slower for real visitors
+31%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 80 ms to 121 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) got 35% slower for real visitors
+35%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.2 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Total Blocking Time: 485 ms
485 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 485 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
16 images without width and height
16 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
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.
2 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.043
0.043The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.043, good is under 0.1).
First Contentful Paint: 1.2 s
1.2 sThe first text or image appears after 1.2 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.3 MB in 407 requests
5.3 MBYour homepage downloads 5.3 MB in 407 requests on a phone: scripts 1.7 MB (74), images 1.5 MB (57) and other files 1.5 MB (258). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
2_fb0d3e7c-d0ae-4809-b475-495042908d87.gif is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
1 image far larger than shown
73 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example shimmy-free_97d6ae7e-36f0-4c59-8385-6bc3e6e439bb.png at 1,080 px wide, shown at 55 px. Resized copies would save about 73 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (181 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.50 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.50 g of CO₂e: 180.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
31 text elements with low contrast
31 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Hidden but focusable
5 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
12 images without alt text
12 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (9 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
11 links without text
11 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 checks passed
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (68 characters)
Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Shelash US - Elevate Artistry with Trusted US Lashes | Free Shipping”.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Meta description is long (210 characters)
Your meta description is 210 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.
185 internal links, 14 external
The homepage links to 185 pages on shelash.com and 14 external pages.
4 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Shelash”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://shelash.com/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://shelash.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
3 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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,050 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://shelash.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
4 pages without a meta description
https://shelash.com/collections/all, https://shelash.com/collections/promade-fans, https://shelash.com/collections/shop-by-collection and https://shelash.com/collections/anime-spikes have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
15 pages without an H1
https://shelash.com/collections/all, https://shelash.com/collections/bf-outlet, https://shelash.com/collections/promade-fans, https://shelash.com/collections/narrow-fans, https://shelash.com/collections/promade-volume-fans and https://shelash.com/collections/promade-loose-fan and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
5 pages slow to respond
https://shelash.com/collections/eyelash-extensions, https://shelash.com/collections/shop-by-collection, https://shelash.com/collections/yy-w, https://shelash.com/collections/u-shape-lashes and https://shelash.com/collections/easy-fan took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 28 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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.
About 660 words of copy
The homepage carries about 660 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
10 calls to action
The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “SHOP ALL”, “Shop by Collection” and “Shop by Style”.
4 short forms

Privacy and tracking

5Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
25 cookies set on arrival
25Opening the homepage sets 25 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.
41 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 41 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at shelash.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
