What is skin slip? Skin slip occurs in dead bodies and is a natural part of the decomposition process. Over time (from the minute a person dies), their skin begins to loosen. This loosened upper layer of skin will often get large blisters that fill with oedema (edema I guess outside of European English? - basically it's bodily fluids, mostly water).

Aging changes in skin As you age, you are at increased risk for skin injury. Your skin is thinner, more fragile, and you lose the protective fat layer. You also may be less able to sense touch, pressure, vibration, heat, and cold. Rubbing or pulling on the skin can cause skin tears. Fragile blood vessels can break easily. Bruises, flat collections of blood (purpura), and raised collections of blood (hematomas) may form after even a minor injury.
