My research is based on exploring the relationship among brand equity of online selling cosmetics skin care products, consumer lifestyle, and internet purchasing deci-sion-making behavior. My research methodology adopts online survey, and I got a total of 588 valid ques-tionnaires. Also, I adopt descriptive statistics, factor analysis, one-way ANOVA analysis, Pearson product-moment correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis and other statistical methods, research results and assumptions described in verification.Following are the results of my study hypotheses: Consumers’ Cognition toward brand equity, life style and decision-making behavior are influenced by some factors in demography like individual age, level of education, monthly disposable income, online shopping experience, the number of hours a day visiting shopping sites, the amount of money purchasing cosmetic products each year. Brand equity and consumer lifestyles are relevant. Brand equity and consumers’ lifestyle will surely affect purchasing deci-sion-making behavior respectively.Consequently, cosmetic skin care products industry, or the seller, should pay atten-tion to the following four dimensions: brand loyalty, brand awareness, perceived quality, and brand associations. They should enhance customer repurchase rate with their brand equity. And further, consumer lifestyle and demographic variables on the network cha-racteristics can be seen as great reference in network cosmetic skin care products con-sumer market segment.
