Has anyone taken to slugging? In the winter I can't stop peeling no matter what I do and I'm wondering if you've had success with it and what you use?

I put a lot of vanicream ointment on my face at night in the winter. Helps with the dryness.

I don’t do slugging because I’m worried about it causing acne for my sensitive skin. However, Kiehl’s Ultra Face Cream 2x daily and the Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber Gel Mask a couple times a week have saved my skin. It stopped my skin from peeling in the dry winter.

If your skin is peeling alot slugging might make the problem worse.

Make sure you don't have anything fungal going on. A good test for this is getting something like lotrimin and testing an area of your face. If that improves you should use it elsewhere.

Make sure you are oil cleansing as well.

On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the most, how pissed would you be if you were a supervisor and you had a new direct report on your team with a higher salary than you? The years of experience are the same, but you have 3 designations (they have 0), you have 3 licenses (they have just 2), they have little to no experience with technical complex claims (you have hundreds), and you have 3 years in management (they have 0).

Is sticking up for yourself even worth it? My boss is always on my ass as if I’m constantly missing, or about to miss, deadlines. I’ve never missed one.

Well, I’ve about had it and am ready to go off. I’m sick of basically being told that I’m not doing my job. How should I address this issue?
