Are there standard/common guidelines for CSS that you should always follow? For example something like you should only font size 12, 14, 16 (only one of those) for Arail?
There is no real reason to standardise this sort of thing. Visual glyph size changes between fonts using the same font size, the only thing that remains constant is the font size relative to the other elements in your design.
Ultimately, when building a web design you need to consider many things, including viewing on many different devices (read: different DPI settings) and on hundreds of different resolutions (not even counting those who browse the web without maximizing the browser window) and even different languages and the space the content will take up with different localization settings.
One important thing to consider is how different devices with different DPIs will display the fonts. For this reason it’s always a good idea to test out your design by viewing it using all different devices, browsers, and resolutions.
