Popis: Dermatologist recommendations of skin care products are critical to the management of compromised and healthy skin and appreciated by patients. Professionals must carefully weigh not only the safety and efficacy but also the aesthetics of products if they are to achieve the desired outcome of satisfied patients. This article elucidates the relevance of product sensory characteristics and consumer preferences, with specific focus on what appeals to men vs. women, those with self-perceived sensitive skin, and acne sufferers. Different product formats with novel aesthetics are also discussed. Dermatologists’ recommendations are clearly essential to ensure that patients use the most appropriate products; however, sensorial aspects of products should be taken into consideration when making those recommendations, to help motivate continued adherence.
