What is Slugging in Skincare?
Slugging is a popular skincare technique that involves applying a thin, protective layer of an occlusive agent, such as Vaseline® Original Healing Jelly, as the very last step of your night-time skincare routine. This creates an effective barrier on the skin's surface, which is crucial for preventing transepidermal water loss overnight and sealing in the hydrating benefits of your other skincare products. This method helps the formulas penetrate deeper, maximizing their effectiveness.
