Slugging is a new trend that's making its rounds and becoming popular on Tiktok. Those who've tried this skincare routine swear by its effectiveness. It involves applying petroleum jelly to acne-prone and dry skin. Vaseline, Aquaphor Ointment, and CeraVe Healing Ointment are some of the topical products that contain petroleum jelly. So, what's slugging skincare all about? Read on to find out more information about this nighttime routine.

 

What's the Process of Slugging?

It involves cleansing your skin, following up with toners and serums, and applying petroleum jelly to add additional moisture. You would use a pea size amount of the product to your skin as the final seal during your nighttime routine. It's recommended to apply the ointment after you use your moisturizer. It's a thick cream, and of course, it works great for dry skin, as well as skin conditions that produce excessive dryness.

Some people believe that slugging works for clearing up cystic acne. Many TikTok users have utilized the platform to showcase their results of using slugging for acne in addition to dry skin. Because petroleum jelly is an occlusive, it's designed to help prevent moisture loss. That said, the ointment may increase the effectiveness of the products that you've already applied to your acne-prone skin, which is used to improve the appearance of acne and blackheads.

Slugging can protect the barrier of your skin, especially during cold weather. It helps to combat dry skin and adds a sealant as a final touch to your skincare routine. It can also strengthen your results, allowing your skin to heal much faster.

    People underestimate how petroleum jelly can prove wonders as just a lightweight moisturizer when applied in small portions.

Should You Color Your Eyebrows

By
  Photo by Jonas Svidras on Unsplash This is a question that has been debated for a long time by those who regularly color their hair. There are benefits to enhancing your eyebrows with a color that corresponds with your hair. However, many believe that dyeing your eyebrows will not necessarily result in a better appearance for your face. It often depends on how long you plan to keep the hair color and whether it's bright enough to require a slight tint to your eyebrows. Of course, if you're wearing extensions or temporary color, you wouldn't need to worry about changing the shade of your eyebrows. If you're like most people who've considered coloring their eyebrows, you've wondered whether it would create a look that's too flashy or over-the-top.
