YOGYAKARTA Popular slugging techniques are discussed on social media TikTok. Is this skin care technique effective and safe for all facial skin types? Wait, so I don't get the wrong steps, know the explanation according to expert recommendations.
What is the lugging technique? Slugging techniques are routine care steps, last or before bed. Where in this technique implements petroleum-based occlusives on the skin to lock down products while sleeping. According to doctor Robinson, Assistant Professor of Clinical Dermatology at Yale New Haven Hospital, is occlusive in preventing the loss of transepidermal water, meaning it can lock down previously applied hydration and skin care products so that they are of maximum benefit.
"Slugging benefits for faces are good in supporting natural skin lipid barriers, which bind cells together and help regulate hydration and prevent irritation," said Deanne Mraz Robinson, MD., FAAD. reported by Readers Digest, Monday, December 5.
Many people associate this treatment trend with the world of K-beauty. They use petroleum jelly to relieve dry skin. In fact, children who experience eczema are also recommended by some dermatologists using petroleum-based care products. In general, this occlusive treatment has a reparative process and increases overall skin healing.
added Robinson, if you use a retinoid that can cause irritation and combinogenic ingredients, it is better to avoid lugging products. It's different if you use moisturizing products such as hyaluronic acid serums and peptide/lipid-based moisturizers, you will get the best results when closing the treatment with the lugging step.
