As for slugging I recommend the Cerave Healing Ointment because you get the benefits of occlusive petrolatum as well as skin barrier-repairing ceramides.

I've been slugging for years. My grandmother would put Vaseline and aloe vera all over her face before bed. She had the prettiest skin!!!! Thank you for sharing!

I've been doing this for years and I had no clue that it was called "slugging" and I wish I could unlearn it lol. Btw I'm reading some of the comments and for people who are acne prone 100% petroleum jelly will NOT clog your pores. If you still get clogged pores after applying petroleum to your face it means you either didn't clean your face well enough or you didn't clean your hands well enough. The same can go for any lotion or face cream you have to dip your fingers into. You need to clean your hands VERY well and use a file or brush to get all the dirt out from under your nails before touching your face otherwise you contaminate the entire jar of moisturizer.

Haven't finished even half of video yet just commenting to say that I love your aesthetic and colour grading, just perfect consistency and values just wow!

As a person with acne-prone, sensitive, and oily skin, I’ve learn not to use it for my face but Vaseline is great for dry lips, I use Vaseline before I go to bed and I wake up with a moisturized lip, and overall Vaseline can be used for healing like cuts or damaged areas on your body

I’ve been doing this forever! A lady once made fun of me and said that it was very bad for my skin hahah, yet my skin has been absolutely amazing for 8+ years because of it! 🤷🏻‍♀️😚

My husband uses Vaseline on his face daily. It's the only thing that has saved his skin. Without it, he's super red, and dry and flaky. Because he has such sensitive skin, he doesn't like using alot of products so this is the go to for him.

I have always Vaseline my whole eyes area before hearing about “slugging”. Side sleeper take your eyes from accelerating wrinkles.

[TheLunaPulvia]

I just started slugging about a month ago and my skin has been amazing 😍

[orienlongknife]

One of my favorite people to watch that I've found this year! Started with your Kinship review and was super into the info and positivity and aesthetic 🌈🌈🌈

[spammusubi]

I’ve been doing this since I had eczema lolll and it has saved my skin. You definitely need to cleanse well before just so you aren’t trapping anything under there

[ousainouconteh]

She is so good. Glad I found her channel.

[neentera]

Another great one!

Slugging is awesome for back sleepers. I use the cerave healing ointment and it seems to work for me!

[janicelloyd]

I have used it for a long time, a pea size amt. rub between hands and apply to clean wet face . Feels wonderful. Doesn’t clog pores.

[Babypoohbear]

I have slightly oily acne prone skin and slugging with Vaseline doesn't break me out. The only reason I don't do it very often is because I hate the way it feels. But it does make my skin the next day so moisturized and dewy which I love!

[loviemey]

I use QV Skin lotion, it's lightweight and can be use for the body and face. The main ingredients are glycerin and petrolatum. I used it a lot to calm my irritated sensitive skin and it doesn't break me out.
