Having tried and tested this online retailer many times I can say that the product range is excellent and the service speedy.

Here's another Channel Islands based online skincare and cosmetics retailer with a very good range of products including major brands such as Lancome and Clarins at discounted prices. You'll also find very good sets of travel sized products, Xen-Tan and Fake Bake tanning ranges and Bare Escentuals cosmetics. Oh yes, and delivery is free Worldwide.

Started in Canada in 1984, MAC is a cutting edge cosmetics and skincare company with products used by professionals, models and celebrities alike. As you'd expect from this now US based brand (although this is the UK website) the site is very high tech but easy to use with clear drop down menus giving you instant details of all the products in your selected category.

It is a very black based site, and you need to allow a little time to learn your way round, however once you've got the hang of it it's extremely difficult not to want.......just about everything.

This is a beautifully laid out website offering just about every fragrance you can think of with bath and body products to match and a small range of cosmetics and skincare. There are also coveted fragrance and body care gift sets by brands such as This Works, Ole Henrikson and Juice Beauty. What's particularly good here is that on many of the products you'll find yourself spending less than you expect. What more could you want?

Chemist Direct is a multi faceted online chemist as being a member of the National Pharmaceutical Association. You can get your prescriptions filled here and there's also a wide range of vitamins and health supplements, baby products, toiletries, holiday and sun care. As well as all of this, in the beauty department, they stock brands such as Caudalie, Andrew Collinge, Biotherm, St Tropez, Decleor, L'Oreal and far too many more to list here.

I find this website quite confusing, however, stick to the product list on the left and you'll be ok. There's an excellent range of cosmetics (in 'makeup') from blushers, concealers and cream foundation to glitter eye shadows and metallic loose powder. What makes everything really special is the packaging, which is totally unique. Think foundation bottles decorated with Moroccan metal and blushers in jewelled pots and you'll get the idea.

If you haven’t yet discovered modern cosmetics and skincare brand Becca, watch out when you visit their website – undoubtedly you’re going to be tempted here, from the 34 different shades of concealer to the Brazilian bronzing sheen and luminous skin colour. Before buying foundation and concealer it would certainly be better to visit their Brompton Cross flagship store, however there are plenty of products here for you to start in on without taking any risks. Go for it.

Just occasionally a website appears that I know I'm going to be using a lot as it's one I've been waiting for. This is definitely one of those because quite frankly, I'm a Bobbi Brown addict. In my opinion they have the some of the best colours and tools you can find and (unfortunately for my bank balance) they seem to manage to create something I really can't resist each season. If you haven't yet tried this excellent all-American cosmetics and skincare company I suggest you get going as you've been missing some of the best products available anywhere.

Christina Stewart and Lynne Sanders, both creative cosmetic chemists, founded Cosmetics à la carte 30 years ago – the first made-to-measure make-up range. If you can't get to their Knightsbridge store, you can order this range of makeup 'to fit' online with easy to see wide choices of colours for face, cheek, lip and eye products (including their wonderful Lip Gloss) plus 'Skin Basics' skin treats and a great selection of brushes and other beauty accessories.

International skincare expert Dr Tuhin Dev, has invested years of research and experience into formulating an anti-ageing skin care range that reduces the effects of ageing and encourages healthy, youthful looking skin.

The collection includes serums, moisturisers, cleanser and toner, where modern, innovative actives work synergistically with traditional ingredients to provide effective, re-juvenating skin treatments.

As you'd expect, Estee Lauder have a really beautiful website and although you can buy their products from other online retailers, here there are lots of extra goodies, such as information on the latest products and best sellers and where you can find (offline, of course) their free gifts and brow bars around the country. They offer express and Saturday delivery services plus gift wrapping.

Gorgeous Shop is your go-to place for salon hair products, GHD straighteners and professional hair dryers. Not only is it extremely easy to find what you're looking for but if you, like me, have a family determined to home in on your special shampoos you can buy larger sizes of your favourites at very good prices. They also have Tweezerman, Jessica Nails, Korres Skin Care and loads more.

Kiehls was established as a New York apothecary in 1851 dedicated to offering products for skin and hair made with efficacious, naturally derived ingredients.

Famous for being a beauty brand loved by celebrities and beauty writers, now you can buy everything online, from their scrubs and serums to bath and body products, fragrance and so much more.

You've seen their cosmetics in all the best beauty stores and now you can buy them online, direct from their ultra chic website. Shop by category - lips, eyes, nails, skincare etc - or from one of the collections, with names such as Viva Glam, Barbie Loves Mac, Untamed, Rockocco or Technacolour – and these change each season. Click on ‘What’s New’ to discover the latest treats and tips or go through to ‘Looks’ to discover how they’re created (and buy the products, of course). Be warned, it's extremely hard to leave without buying.

On the gorgeously black based new Nars website you can find out about and order all the NARS products which include the famous range of cosmetics (try the excellent creme blush), makeup brushes and sets. Then there's the shimmering bronzing glow and powder, NARS skin beauty products and the full range of palettes which contain up to ten eye, cheek and lip colours. Another website to be warned about.

Click through this site and then through to the beauty department, where you can order their selection of products by l'Occitane, Bare Escentuals, Bobbi Brown, Smashbox, T Le Clerc, Prescriptives and many more. You won't necessarily find the full selection of each, but collections of must-have items from each brand are here and extremely well photographed. Sign up and input your details for your QVC membership number and the next time you want to order, that's all you'll need.

Before you buy fragrance, cosmetics or skincare online you need to check to see if your product is available on this site where shipping is free and most products are discounted. A really huge range of designers, so big it's not worth trying to list. If you can think of it they probably have it. To be clear, this site is based overseas and you may get charged duty. You'll find that provided you're ordering more than one thing the discounts almost always well outweigh the duty. Try them and you'll see.

Whether you're looking for a pampering gift or something for yourself, you'll almost certainly like this website which is easy to get round and well photographed. Choose from Beauty, Skincare, Haircare, Candles and Home Fragrance or Gifts and Accessories from brands such as Korres, Sohum or This Works. Alternatively shop by brand or by scent, check out their recommendations or take advantage of free gifts and special offers. Whatever; you'll have a fun time browsing here.
