A SKINCARE connoisseur has shared her tried-and-true method for preventing her skin from aging.
Nicole, the 37-year-old beauty expert, has a particular step she does right after her skincare routine that leaves her with great results.
“I’m 37 and I have aging skin, and after I’m done with my skincare, I lock it in with Aquaphor and I sleep that way,” Nicole said in a social media video.
“Try it for a week and tell me what you think.”
The woman, who has acne-prone skin, said that this method commonly known as slugging doesn’t make her break out.
It should be done as a last step after you’ve already applied all your serums and moisturizer.

Over in Nicole’s comment section, people shared their preferred product of choice when using the slugging method – many confirming her anti-aging routine to be effective.
“I’m 51, and as a black woman I [have used] Vaseline for over 30 years. Wrinkle free,” wrote one person.
“I love CeraVe Healing Ointment. It saved my skin last winter,” added a second.
Also citing Vaseline as a good contender, a third said: “Or Vaseline! I’ve been doing it since I was in high school. My dermatologist recommended it, been doing it ever since.”
“Yes! This method is called slugging and I swear by it,” exclaimed a fourth.
“I can already tell a difference. It seems to really minimize the wrinkles. Thanks for the tip.”
“Yes! I’ve been doing this for years!!! It’s amazing!!”
“I started doing this to repair my moisture barrier because I wrecked it with Differin haha. But I LOVE IT! My mom has always done this too,” a final person said.
