Beauty & cosmetics

From “something for oily skin” to a full routine.

Beauty shoppers search by problem, ingredient and shade. AACSearch understands negations and attributes, answers ingredient questions from your product pages, and recommends the next step of a routine.

Where search loses customers today

“Without” is ignored

“Без спирта” returns products with alcohol because the word matched. Negation is one of the most common beauty intents.

Ingredient vocabulary

INCI names, trade names and translations differ. Shoppers rarely type what the label says.

Shade matching

Shade names are marketing; shoppers search by tone and undertone.

Repeat recommendations

“Similar items” shows five versions of the same moisturiser instead of the cleanser and SPF that complete a routine.

How AACSearch solves it, layer by layer

Each card names the capability behind it. Items marked “in development” are designed and scheduled, not live yet.

Finds the right item from the first letters — typos, synonyms, filters, meaning.

Attributes and negations

Skin type, ingredient exclusions and price phrases become filters, not competing words.

Ingredient synonyms

INCI names, trade names and common spellings grouped into synonym sets.

Facets by need

Skin type, concern, SPF and volume as filters with counts.

Widens the basket: similar, frequently together, personal.

Personal shelf

Ranking adapts to the brands and categories a visitor engages with; history decays so a one-off gift doesn't reshape the profile.

Diverse suggestions

MMR diversification keeps recommendation rows from filling up with near-duplicates.

Answers questions a filter can't, citing your own catalogue and docs.

Ingredient and usage answers

“Can I use retinol with vitamin C?” — answered from your product pages and articles, with citations and without medical claims beyond the sources.

Learns how items, queries and topics connect — and leads the visitor to the goal.

Routine builder

Will learn routine sequences (cleanser → toner → serum → SPF) from purchase order and suggest the next step, not another serum.

Concern clusters

Will group products, ingredients and articles into concerns like “acne-prone” or “sensitive” for guided navigation.

  2. Day 2

    Add ingredient synonyms (INCI and trade names).

  3. Week 1

    Index articles for the assistant; check it refuses medical questions it can't source.
