The traditional way of shopping for cosmetics often includes an excursion to the mall, an overwhelming array of beauty supply counters, and a persistent salesperson offering you the one product you never knew you needed. But finally, an alternative to this tradition has arrived. With the dawn of the World Wide Web, online shopping and information for numerous cosmetic lines is available. Most of these cosmetic sites offer online ordering, product descriptions, and beauty advice.

Web users seeking cosmetic advice and makeup tips need go no further than the web site of their favorite cosmetics line. The web sites of many companies, including Clinique, Cover Girl, Avon, Mary Kay, and Revlon offer skin typing, color selection advice, and makeup tips. Cover Girl goes the extra mile, using astrology to match your life events with beauty advice. For the international customer, Lancome offers a multilingual web site tailored to the language of your country. If searching for information on science research, look to L’Oreal’s site to learn about their studies on dermatological and cosmetic issues. The most obvious convenience of online cosmetic sites is the ability to choose and order products through the company's web site. Most sites offer this useful service to their online customers.

The next time the urge to shop for cosmetics hits, don't just run to your car and head for the nearest shopping center. Instead, jump on your computer and connect to the Internet to search for cosmetic resources online. Online cosmetic shopping opens a whole new world for customers seeking to fill their beauty needs. Whether you're seeking beauty advice and information or an easy way to purchase products, the World Wide Web is a convenient option for your cosmetic needs.
