Marketing advisors maintain that a greater diversity in the range of skin care products available to shoppers means that more shoppers will find a product which will answer their exact needs and preferences. Therefore, presenting a wide range of skin care products on supermarket shelves is advocated in order to increase the number of buyers and their satisfaction level. In practice, however, the situation is quite different, since the larger the variety of skin care products on the shelves is, the less distinct the differences between them become.
