Slugging Is Trending And So Is Drunk Elephant Wonderwild
Drunk Elephant Wonderwild Miracle Butter ($38) is a new multi-use plant based butter that contains marula, cupuaçu, mango, and shea to help hydrate skin and replenish lipids in your skin and even aid in strengthen a compromised skin barrier that maybe have made too much use of acids. Slugging is currently the new trend on Tiktok. It’s funny to watch Tiktoks and younger women and men doing videos about slugging. They speak about it as of the technique is brand new and they just discovered it. I love that old is new mentality Tiktok creators have.
But slugging is not new and it’s been around a while and may even be a technique you use currently or have used in the past. I do it in the Winter when my skin is extra dry. It seals in moisture and helps skin to remain soft and smooth. It’s also a great way to sooth skin that may have too many acids or exfoliants in its diet.
What is slugging?
Sounds gross right? Slugging simply refers applying a layer of petroleum jelly as the last step of your nighttime skin care routine. This not only moisturizes your skin but also helps lock in the other products you applied. Jennifer Aniston swears that Vaseline is what she’s used under her eyes for years!
