What to fix first

The shortest path to better AI search presence

Readable turns missed buyer questions into pages AI can trust, clearer evidence buyers can verify, and comparison answers that make it easier for AI tools to recommend you.

1

Close the Clean Beauty Standards gap before competitors keep winning the recommendation.: Buyers are asking about Clean Beauty Standards, but your homepage barely explains it. AI answers currently connect Milk Makeup more strongly with that need.

2

Create dedicated comparison landing pages (Rare Beauty vs. e.l.f. Cosmetics, Rare Beauty vs. Milk Makeup) that explicitly benchmark cruelty-free certification, vegan range, and price point—the three attributes already driving 67% association—to capture AI citation on head-to-head queries where Rare Beauty currently underperforms e.l.f. by 25 visibility points.

3

Publish a structured 'Shade Range Inclusivity' hub page with quantified data (number of shades per SKU, undertone categories, foundation match tool) to lift the 33% association score on that attribute, positioning Rare Beauty in the 'inclusive beauty' category cluster where broader Cosmetics brands dominate at 75% visibility.

4

Seed ingredient transparency content—INCI breakdowns, clean beauty standard certifications, third-party lab citations—into authoritative sources (Byrdie, INCI Decoder, EWG) that AI models preferentially cite, directly addressing the two lowest-scoring attributes (Ingredient Transparency 33%, Clean Beauty Standards 22%) to close the gap against category leaders.

5

Vegan-certified product queries (e.g., 'buy vegan lipstick cruelty free online', 'ethical makeup brand vegan certified products') where e.l.f. and Milk Makeup appear but Rare Beauty is absent, likely due to its partial vegan status—closing this gap requires clearer AI-visible messaging around which Rare Beauty products are certified vegan
