Original Healing Jelly
Inert, fragrance-free, and non-allergenic — trusted for sensitive or compromised barriers
What the community says
Pros
- Inert, fragrance-free, and non-allergenic — trusted for sensitive or compromised barriers
- Widely used for 'slugging' to seal in moisture overnight and reduce transepidermal water loss
- Frequently recommended as a protective barrier around eyes, lips, and nose to mitigate tretinoin irritation
Cons
- Can cause breakouts or milia in acne-prone or oily skin types when used liberally
- Not a moisturizer by itself; doesn't hydrate but merely locks in existing moisture
- Applying it over wet tretinoin or as a thick layer can increase penetration and irritation—avoid on tret nights
