SLUG IT

Last season’s freezing temperatures may have left your skin red, rashy and lifeless. But there is an easy solution: slugging. Borrowed from the K-beauty world (read: Korean), slugging involves coating your face in a heavy moisturizer (most sluggers use Vaseline) before bed. You — and your pillowslips — may look slug-slimy, but you’ll wake up a picture of dewiness. It’s not rocket science: an occlusive moisturizer locks in hydration and prevents water loss, so it’s reasonable to expect some hydration benefits. But slugging is highly recommended if your skin is in serious need of a pick-me-up. Consider applying a serum under the moisturizer and letting it work while you sleep.
