What the gurus are saying

Experts genuinely split on whether this simple vegetable oil occlusive is worth its $24.49 price, some question paying that much when drugstore petroleum jelly costs $2.99 to $4.99 and does essentially the same job, while others find it worth trying regardless. Those with dry skin benefit well from it, but people with acne-prone and rosacea skin may find it aggravating.

"This is fragrance free. [...] It's a good option for dry skin but some people with acne-prone skin or rosacea find it aggravates their skin. This has hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is anti-inflammatory, so it's capitalizing off of using an occlusive. But you have to ask yourself would you rather pay $24.49 for their Slug Bomb or $ [...] 4.99 or the drugstore version at $2.99 or whatever for just plain petroleum jelly."

"The FutureWise Slug Bomb, I haven't tried it yet, but thank you FutureWise for sending me some of the products, because I do need to try it. I would be interested to try it, because it's on a higher price point end for how simple the ingredients are, given that it's mostly vegetable oil based, but I'm down for the formula, I'm down to try it, I say smash."
