Humectants, Emollients, and Occlusives: The Only 3 Words You Need to Understand Skincare

💧 Humectants = attract water
🥑 Emollients = soften skin
🛡️ Occlusives = lock moisture in

Once people understand those three categories, they suddenly understand almost every moisturizer, serum, lotion, and cream on the shelf.

As a little girl, I was always making potions.

I mixed flowers, leaves, spices, and whatever I could find in the kitchen or yard into jars and bowls. I didn't know it then, but I was already fascinated by how ingredients worked together to create something new.

I became a singer, a musician, speech pathologist, a painter, dancer and writer. They all filled a part of that need to create, but nothing ever quite satisfied it completely.

Then life handed me something I never expected: breast cancer.

During that journey, I started paying closer attention to what I put in and on my body. I began reading ingredient lists, researching formulations, and asking questions I had never asked before.

And something clicked.

The little girl making potions never really disappeared.

She just grew up.

Pantry Pixie was born from that rediscovery—a place where creativity, curiosity, and ingredients come together. It's where I share the magic of making things yourself, understanding what goes into them, and realizing that sometimes the simplest ingredients can create something wonderful.

From childhood potions to purposeful creations, the journey has come full circle.

✨ From the pantry, with intention.

Ticks and mosquitoes are out in full force here in Florida, so today I'm making a simple DIY bug repellent using ingredients I already had on hand.
This easy repellent oil combines lavender and lemon balm infused jojoba oil with lemon eucalyptus, clove, cedarwood, and tea tree essential oils for a fresh-smelling outdoor companion perfect for hikes, gardening, camping, and evenings outside.

RECIPE (30 mL)

• 15 mL Lemon Balm & Lavender Infused Jojoba Oil
(Instructions are included in the Pantry Pixie Beginner Handbook)

• 20 drops Lemon Eucalyptus Essential Oil
• 5 drops Clove Essential Oil
• 15–20 drops Cedarwood Essential Oil
• 5 drops Tea Tree Essential Oil

Shake gently before each use and apply sparingly to exposed skin.
