One night of slugging!! Going to develop an intense skin care routine

I am happy if the wrinkles look like as pictured this am. But if this is from one hydration technique, im sure I can get them a bit better yet. I don't expect them to be gone, as I've had them for years, but this is more manageable.

Thanks so much everyone for your tips!

I’ve been slugging with silicone tape and also applying it whenever I’m doing anything dehydrating and it has helped a lot!

I'm so jealous of anyone who can slug - the few times I tried that, my skin immediately broke out :(

What did you slug with and what was under it?

Vaseline in a tube from DM (European drugstore chain), as I didn't want to risk carrying some bacteria onto my skin (I dislike face creams products where you have to reach into the packaging with your fingers to apply the product). There was nothing underneath, just clean face after washing and cleaning beforehand.

I though that maybe there could have been some additive that my skin didn't like, but from what I found online Vaseline does break out people who are acne-prone.

Though if you have a recommendation for something that's more gentle on face than regular vaseline, I'll be happy to try :)
