We know that occlusives like Vaseline’s petroleum jelly work their magic to give you the smoothest and softest skin of your life the following day, but these balms are even better. Here are some options for slugging that you can add to your skincare routine to get that endless glow that will last all day.
MindBodyGreen loves Peach & Lily Rescue Balm, which is infused with oils like sunflower seed and castor seed and combined with plant-based waxes for a more decadent, balm-like consistency. Alicia Yoon, celebrity esthetician and founder of Peach & Lily, told the outlet, “It’s my modified version of slugging: Over my moisturizer, I melt it into my hands, then slowly roll my palms over my face, just pressing it into my skin.”
If you have oily skin and are worried about pasting Vaseline on your face, Cosmopolitan recommends Missha Super Aqua ell Renew Snail Cream. According to Missha, it has 70 percent snail slime to heal damaged skin by strengthening your skin barrier and improving water retention. Meanwhile, Elle recommends Farmacy Honey Halo Ultra-Hydrating Ceramide Moisturizer. According to the brand, it has fig extracts that help your skin get soft and smooth.
Additional plant-based ceramides, shea butter, and vitamin E help the skin barrier. Your skin doesn’t have to look greasy for slugging anymore, and you will get equally moisturized skin that is soft and supple. If it works for you, maybe you can also consider if you should be doing hair slugging, too.
