Patient preference
Smell, texture and the way it looks on the skin, absorption into the skin
NICE recommends that patients are offered unperfumed emollients which they can choose

Which of the following challenges do your patients encounter with emollient therapy?
They stop adhering to their emollient therapy. It is a big effort for them to apply it several times a day. So, compliance is a big issue and if they don’t use it then they may get further flares
Patients will be more likely to apply an emollient regularly if they like it and it fits in with their daily routine and lives
From experience my patients do no face any problems with emollient therapy
