What the gurus are saying

This gel cream earns consistent praise for its lightweight texture and quick absorption, making it a standout pick for oily and combination skin. Dermatologists and beauty experts found it hydrating without greasiness, with one noting it layers seamlessly under makeup. The main caveat: it lacks occlusive ingredients to seal moisture in, so those with dry or mature skin may find it too insubstantial on its own, and some report needing multiple layers for lasting hydration.

"I have been using the Torriden Dive-In moisturizer off and on for a while now and I really like it. If you have oily skin, you don't want a heavy moisturizer, you don't like the feeling of rich creams on your face, this is a great option. It's hyaluronic acid, fragrance-free."

Dermatologist Reviews the Best and Worst Skincare at Costco
"I got a question about this the other day on my Instagram. Somebody wanted to know is this worth it for oily, acne prone skin. I'm actually currently using it off and on rotating it around just based on my mood honestly in my nighttime routine and I really like it. It is very lightweight. I think if you have oily breakout prone skin, you will appreciate this lighter texture. It is very hydrating and it also is free of fragrance. I have no complaints about this."

"Their Dive-In Low Molecular Hyaluronic Acid Soothing Cream is lovely as well. It also contains low molecular weight hyaluronic acid for that hydrating soothing effect without the heaviness. It really helps to prevent moisture loss but does not feel heavy, does not feel like your skin is shiny or greasy. It's got this flexible, stretchy gel-like technology, so I would lump it as a gel cream that absorbs really quickly and layers nicely under makeup."

"The Torriden Dive-In is a gel cream. Those are obviously a little bit harder to find. You would have to buy them online, but they're fairly affordable."
✓Mixed
"This gel cream is one of the high ranking picks for summer, similar looking to the Dr. G gel cream with a similar texture. It's very light but doesn't absorb that well anymore, maybe because my standard has gotten higher. It's still popular, and if you have oily combo skin and just want to stay hydrated with something water based, it's fine for beginners. But if you have dry mature skin like me, over 40, I don't recommend it, it's going to be too light."

Best Viral Korean Moisturizers [don’t buy one before watching this]
"Torriden is doing a great job making a good product with hyaluronic acid, the soothing moisture works so well, making the skin feel cool, and it has less than 1% oil so it is great for oily skin. It is a light blue gel cream, but I feel it is not long lasting, so you have to layer it many, many times."
Korean Skincare products that are actually POPULAR in Korea
"Next is the Torriden Dive-In Soothing Cream, it definitely feels like a popular product, but if you're dry or mature skin, skip this, the Torriden serum is fine in summer but this cream is too light. They named it a cream but it's really a soothing gel using hyaluronic acid, it's a light blue gel with no scent, good for instant cooling and hydration, they use less than one percent oil so oily, combination skin, teens and men will love this."

"I actually really like the Torriden Dive In low molecular weight hyaluronic acid soothing cream. [...] It's really nice, nothing revolutionary or to run out and get, but if you have dehydrated, dry, combination, oily or all skin types you can enjoy and benefit from it. [...] This particular cream feels a lot more quenching and hydrating compared to others, especially combined with the serum version."

"I think it has really nice absorbency, it's not sticky or tacky. It's just a really nice, pleasant, light to medium gel cream. I do think that this is going to be great. Oily skin will like this, combination skin, balanced skin types. If you're suffering with dehydration, I would be aware of the fact that this really doesn't have any occlusivity, just a little bit of moisture kind of hugs everything in, but we're not getting that really seal it in hydration."

What the evidence says.

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

Urea

Urea both holds water in the skin and gently loosens dead surface cells. At higher strengths it has good evidence for very dry or thickened skin.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
