How this fits in

There is limited evidence on how children with eczema and their parents use and evaluate emollients, commonly referred to as ‘moisturising creams’. Among parents and children using different types of emollients, wide variability of experiences within and across different emollients was found. There is no one emollient that is suitable for everyone, and families would welcome support in finding emollients that work for them on different areas of the body and at different levels of eczema severity. Future research should focus on developing tools and resources that will support clinicians and families from all backgrounds to identify the best emollient for their children.
