I wasn’t planning on falling in love with a moisturizer this summer — but here we are 😂

The Torriden Dive-In Soothing Cream looks like someone took the idea of a glacier, melted it just a little, and bottled it into a skincare jar💅 

The texture? That perfect gel-cream hybrid that doesn’t melt into water too fast, but still glides like silk over your skin. And the color ✨✨a calming, translucent pale blue✨✨ genuinely makes you feel 3 degrees cooler just by looking at it. Like it’s whispering “don’t worry, I got you.”

Let’s talk performance:

My skin is combo, and summer usually brings chaos — oily forehead, dry cheeks, heat rashes if I look at the sun wrong. But this cream? It brought balance 🫢

It hydrates like a glass of iced water after a long day💦, but without that suffocating film some moisturizers leave behind. I use it morning and night, and it doesn’t pill under sunscreen or foundation (we love a respectful roommate). 😎

What surprised me most was the finish. It’s not matte, not glowy — just calm 😶‍🌫️ Like your skin went to a spa and came back refreshed, holding a green smoothie and a vague sense of inner peace. 

Honestly, I didn’t expect much beyond “it’ll feel nice,” but this one soothed redness around my nose and even helped with that weird heat rash near my jawline 🥹🤍

Any cons?

If you’re more into thick, buttery textures — this probably won’t hit. But for gel-cream lovers💕, or anyone who wants to feel like their moisturizer is wearing tiny shades and sipping a piña colada on their behalf — this one’s a win.

Sometimes a product doesn’t change your life — it just makes your day feel 10% better.

This cream? It did that. Repeatedly 🙈😍
