What the gurus are saying

The stick format earns consistent praise for convenience on the go, gliding on without needing your hands, making it ideal for gym bags or travel. Dermatologists highlight it for targeted relief on problem areas like elbows, knees, hands, and cuticles, and as a chafing preventer, especially during summer or after the shower when you want to lock in moisture. Because it's pure petrolatum, those with eczema or sensitive skin may find it particularly soothing on irritated patches.

    "You don't have that tight feeling. It's not heavy. It's not greasy in its stick form. I would say it's just amazing. If you want to try slugging but don't want to commit to the full glossy face, just use this in certain areas where you think your skin needs that little bit extra. I do put this everywhere because it does leave a nice even light layer all over the face. A classic. You can't really go wrong with it."

    "If you're an individual who is very active and you find that the running, the exercise and the repetitive motion really induces skin on skin rubbing, then consider using a barrier cream or even like petrolatum or anti-chafing stick to help to protect the skin and reduce that frictional component. One of the most effective is just using petrolatum. I really like this one from Vaseline, it's the all over body balm that's 100 percent petrolatum or petroleum jelly."

    "And I attribute it to this as maintenance when it's cleared up. But when it's active, this I would not use because if you've ever had hydraulic hand eczema, when you have the little blisters bubbling up, don't put petroleum jelly on them because it kind of aggravates it by trapping in those little moisture bubbles. The product is great for the lips."

    What the evidence says.

    Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

    Vitamin E

    Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
