In this podcast, we will explore how incorporating Castor Oil into your slugging routine can help transform your skincare regimen, providing the natural, lasting hydration and luminous skin you’ve been searching for. 

Slugging might sound a bit strange, but it's actually a game-changer for your skincare routine. Traditionally, skin slugging involves applying a thick layer of a petroleum-based product, like vaseline, to your skin before bed to help keep moisture locked in.

Where did it get its unique name? It is thought that ‘slugging’ came from the glossy, slug-like finish the oil creates on your skin. Pretty interesting, agreed? 

The aim of skin slugging, particularly for your face, is to help create that dewy, youthful-looking glow that has inspired the growing TikTok trend.

The primary benefit of slugging is its ability to provide long lasting hydration to the skin. By applying a thick layer of an occlusive agent like petroleum jelly, Castor Oil, or a rich moisturizer, you’re helping to create a barrier that locks in moisture.

This in turn helps to prevent the natural oils and water from evaporating, potentially helping your skin to stay plump-looking and hydrated for longer periods.

When it comes to selecting the perfect product for slugging, Castor Oil is a game-changer. Known for its rich, emollient properties, Castor Oil does more than just lock in moisture—it nourishes your skin from within
