Hi @Lovelydarkskin !

I’m glad to hear our suggestions were helpful to you! To answer your question, you can absolutely incorporate accessories and skin products onto your website as they stay within your target market. As you mentioned, you are able to add the products into separate collections in order to differentiate them from one another.

As you grow your product range and establish a more diverse selection, you will naturally end up with a more diverse customer base. The more you have to offer to different types of people, the more potential your business has to grow. Additionally, if you have an impressive range on offer, you are more likely to stand out from the crowd. More people will become aware of you, and this awareness will encourage loyalty and return business.
