"Occulant"????

[dudsville]

I can't remember what i learned on here last year and Google can't help me find the right word. Is EA8hr cream an "occulant"??? And if so, does that mean it needs to applied after something?

Are you thinking emollient? Or occlusive?

Occlusive, is what you're trying to remember, I think. Just means it's a heavier and usually used last as it forms a physical barrier to prevent moisture being lost. Doesn't mean it needs to be applied after something but sometimes it is used over something with a lot of humectants (hydration).

Thank you!!!!! Occlusive, that's it!

I was reading the thread about the poor woman's painfully cracked heels and i wad reminded i have a tube of ea8hr cream i thought i would put to good use since I've been more barefoot lately and feet are drying out.
