Speed Soak
Skin Rehydrating Gel

Drown out dry skin with the first ever immediate rehydrating gel for bodies. Made for active adults who have no time to wait for standard body creams to absorb, the gelcream formula is to parched skin what a gulp of water is to desert-dry mouths: essential, instant relief. Upon application moisture barrier function is restored, water reserves are optimized, and water circulation within the epidermis is maximized.

Love how fast it absorbs Love how fast this absorbs and how hydrated it made my skin. I've been using the carea cream but might switch over to speed soak in the summer months. I've been using speed soak when traveling and it's great because it really does absorb quickly!!I would recommend this product to: friends & familyCaricia Verified Purchase

Not sticky and actually hydrates AND moisturized skin I honestly love that this product doesn’t depend on hyaluronic acid for its hydrating power! There’s a time and a place for HA, but I often find that it can be sticky and if not formulated with enough other moisturizers in a body cream, can end up leaving me dehydrated. This gel is never sticky, and I feel like it “dries down” so it doesn’t slide around everywhere, but leaves a moisturized feel where the product was applied. The addition of squalane to the gel is essential to making it a well-rounded body moisturizer that doesn’t need a cream/oil added on top like hyaluronic body serums do. It also layers great under carea cream if you did want to add more moisture :)I would recommend this product to: Anyone who wants a lightweight but impactful body care solutionjen Verified Purchase

Perfect for travel Usually, I use the Carea Cream. I enjoy applying the soothing and calming Carea Cream to my skin after I shower or bathe. However, when I travel, I appreciate Speed Soak. It absorbs so fast and once I get dressed, there is no tacky feel at all! My husband also appreciates the fact I am ready so much faster!I would recommend this product to: Anyone who wants added moisture without the usual time of absorption (ie at the gym, on vacation, running late, or wearing a thin fabric)Andria Verified Purchase

My husband will use this and it works for dry skin!!! I originally bought this for my husband who has extremely dry legs and arms. He is not a lotion user so after reading about the Speed Soak gel I thought it would be worth a try. He has used it 3x’s now with no complaints. He likes the fast absorbing gel without the stickiness of most moisturizers. I believe this is the product I have been looking for all these years for him. I have used it a couple of times and love everything about it. The gel is a GREAT consistency and I believe it will provide excellent moisture to our skin for all seasons. I even noticed it lasts for many more hours than other moisturizers. We will be both be grabbing for it now!!! A must purchase…I would recommend this product to: Anyone that wants a fast absorbing gel that is NOT sticky or too thick.Denise Verified Purchase

Like a big glass of water for your skin! Really enjoyed this as a light moisturizer, but I loved layering it under the Carea Cream. My hands and arms still feel hydrated and plump after multiple hand washings at more than 24 hours since I applied the combo. The speed soak sunk in immediately and didn't leave me feeling greasy or tacky. Felt like a big glass of water for your skin.I would recommend this product to: People in a hurry, People in hot humid climates, Athletes or Post Gym/Workout.

Despite being a gel, this lotion is deceptively moisturizing and spreads very smoothly on skin. It's not sticky or particularly thick but it disappears into the skin and leaves it visibly hydrated in seconds. It's the perfect moisturizer for legs and arms in warmer months, and it even performed well on rough eczema patches and drier areas on my body like my knees and elbows. You might be compelled to dispense a huge dollop for one area, but you get so much mileage from the smallest amount. If you're worried about dry skin year round but don't want to sacrifice moisture for a more suitable texture in the summer time, this product is literally godsent! *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

I use a few of Soft Service's products so my expectations were very high for this gel moisturizer. It is safe to say that I was not let down. This product is incredible. The consistency is perfect, not too runny or too thick. It absorbed into the skin quickly without leaving a sticky residue. The hydration was immediate and I noticed my skin significantly softer. I work in a healthcare facility so I am constantly washing my hands and they get dried out. Before using this product I would have to reapply what I was using several times throughout the day. The hydration that this moisturizer delivers is powerful. Yes, I did have to reapply but it would only be once or twice. *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

obsessed with this stuff and used it on my entire damn body basically every day, mostly after showering or before bed. the formula is pretty incredible — it was never sticky, even when i layered. my skin sucked it right up and felt legitimately hydrated and soft without being greasy. sometimes gel moisturizers pill, especially when layering with other products. didn’t have that issue with this one at all. on top of that, it didn’t come with some overwhelming fragrance — totally neutral, like adding water to your skin. i used it to treat a sunburn and it was like magic. 10/10 *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

great hydration for accutane I am currently on accutane and have tried numerous lotions... especially thick heavier creams since my skin is currently so dry and flaky. I know that this is labeled as a body cream, but I have been using it on my face. This cream, despite being so thin and light, has hydrated my face better than any other product. At night, I especially love to use this followed by aquaphor and my skin looks fresh and hydrated in the morning. The ingredients are backed by scientific literature and I love that it is fragrance free! highly recommend it for dry, flaky skin. i imagine oily skin folks might also benefit since the formulation is thin and absorbs quickly!I would recommend this product to: anyone on accutane and/or has sensitive skinAmanda

A new staple There’s an episode of Seinfeld where George takes a shower after working out but he’s still sweating because the shower “didn’t take.” Well, that’s me. So I absolutely love that this moisturizer is lightweight (but hydrating) and dries down very quickly. I also appreciate that it’s completely fragrance free, but I think an option of this same formula with a very subtle/light fragrance would be fun! I tend to use this when I shower in the AM and have to quickly get dressed and run out the door. I bought this in the fall but I know this will be a lifesaver come summertime!I would recommend this product to: Everyone!Molly Verified Purchase

It’s okay but not worth it. Of all the products I’ve tried from Soft Services this is the only one I’ve liked. I like that it’s fragrance free & it is moisturizing. The gel like consistency is very nice for those who don’t like a heavy cream. I took away a star because it is expensive for what it is. It is also very sticky & takes quite awhile to dry down. Ultimately this is not something I’d purchase again. I like the idea behind this company making body focused skincare but the pricing versus the results are way off for me. It’s a lot of buck for very little bang. 2 of the products have made me break out worse so this is not a solution for me. Just an expensive mistake.I would recommend this product to: I wouldn’t recommend this product.Alison Verified Purchase

Great product that lasted two weeks I picked up a bottle of speed soak after Bekah Sun on YT claimed that was one of the most fast drying body lotions she’d ever used. I hate the sticky feeling most lotions and creams leave on my skin, so I was stoked to try this. It still takes about an hour to stop feeling tacky, but that’s much better than any other lotion I’ve tried. I compared it to the Neutrogena Hydrogel for body last night, and while the Speed Soak dried down better, it wasn’t different enough to warrant the price tag. I would likely repurchase the Speed Soak if it was cheaper or came in a much larger bottle (I went through one tube in 2 weeks and didn’t even use it every day). If you can afford the bi-weekly expense I’d go for it!I would recommend this product to: Anyone looking for a relatively fast drying moisturizer with a large budget for body care products.Stuart

Saved the day ❤️ Was at a conference mostly outdoors (likeminds.camp!) and didn't use sunscreen (because I'm not very smart). There happened to be some speed soak on site & it was a total lifesaver. Felt the impact instantly (as opposed to the normal delay) & my skin didn't have any peeling, no dryness, nothing (except a half decent tan)... don't recommend going two days in the sun without sunscreen, but if you do - use speed soak!I would recommend this product to: Anyone looking for a moisturizer that acts fast + doesn't feel ickyRon

Featured Product Review: Speed Soak I am a total lotion skeptic and I was fully prepared to not like this one because I usually find a reason to not like others but I can say honestly that I love this product! It goes on easily (not sticky, doesn't require a ton of product) it absorbs nicely and doesn't leave you oily but you still feel nicer than before you put it on, and I have really noticed my skin softening from using it.

Great for older skin My skin is older and so drier. Not anymore! I’m very grateful to have found this product. I’ve only had it a short time but already I see noticeable results, no more tight dry skin. I love that it is not sticky and absorbs quickly so no long moisturizing routine. I got a hint to store it in the fridge and that is a winner, especially in summer. As an added bonus when you’ve applied it, your hands are also softened. I like to go camping and this is going in my backpack as a fast, easy moisture replenisher. Plus it is economical, a small amount goes a long way.I would recommend this product to: EveryoneAnré

I've been diligently applying this product for three weeks. Each time it goes on I'm pleasantly surprised to see how quickly it sinks in to my skin. I don't think my legs have ever been so smooth and silky. I've always been self conscious about the way the skin on my legs looks and feels. Gel moisturizer has made it so I can run my hand up and down my leg without freaking out at my skin's tight, rough texture. I actually enjoy touching my own legs now! About a week ago I got into bed, my husband started to touch my thigh and immediately said "wow I love how slick and glidey your skin feels" and I said "must be my new moisturizer". Needless to say gel moisturizer is going to be a permanent part of my routine. *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

I’m always on the search for the best products and I have yet to find my lotion until now- this is the one! I’m so happy to have found this soothing and light moisturizer. I love the gel texture, especially when I’ve been in the sun or have just gotten out of the shower. It gives your skin a natural shine (I have a few tattoos and they look brighter), it dries quickly, and leaves a satin like finish. Most importantly, it’s natural, fragrance-free, and doesn’t feel like you’re piling on a lot of product. I can’t say enough good things about this moisturizer. After using it for a while, I have seen a noticeable difference in my skin texture and tightness- everything just looks and feels healthier. I look forward to putting on this lotion, which I’ve never felt before! So In love. Thanks Soft Services! *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

I absolutely love this gel moisturizer. It absorbs so quickly into my skin and provides instant and lasting hydration. Hot tip: if you put it in the refrigerator before use it has a skin cooling effect which is really nice after a workout and I find that the gel absorbs even faster into the skin when it is refrigerated. Prior to using this formula, I used many different moisturizers, either lotions or creams, and I won't go back to them. This formulation does not leave a film on your skin and does not feel sticky at all. The formulation is gentle and you can use it on freshly shaved legs without any irritation whatsoever. My legs are so smooth as a result of using this product. This is my new go-to moisturizing product. It provides instant skincare gratification as well as lasting hydration results. I will definitely continue to use this product going forward! *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

I’m a daily user of Carea Cream for 7 months now and tried this Gel Moisturizer over the last 3 weeks every day after getting out of the shower. The Gel Moisturizer is light and is the fastest absorbing moisturizer I’ve ever used. I was surprised the first time using it because with little effort spreading, my skin immediately took it in. This would be a seasonal product for me since the lightness of the product makes it a pleasure to use in the spring/summer, warm to hot, humid climate, which we are currently experiencing in NYC. It doesn’t feel like you have an oily layer on top of your skin that some thicker lotions tend to leave. I think I’d prefer to use Carea Cream when it’s cold and/or dry. *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

My skin is so soft and pliable after testing this product. I enjoy the cooling effect the gel has compared to Carea Cream. The formula is super lightweight making it a great moisturizing alternative for warmer weather. I've been applying it after showering but also before bed because I like the fast-absorbing softness. I'm really enjoying how smooth and hydrated my skin is, especially at the cusp of summer. Pro tip: keep it in the fridge for a fresh way to wake up your skin after a day out in the sun. Using this gel has really improved this rough patch of skin over one of my big toe knuckles. It's not nearly as rough and my skin is way softer. I can't wait to hype up this product to my friends. *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

The formula for the gel moisturizer is very, very lightweight and feels cooling and hydrating immediately upon application. I loved storing it in the fridge and using cold to maximize that effect. I noticed that it absorbed quickly and didn't feel sticky inside my jeans, which is a pet peeve of mine. On a long-term basis, I felt that my skin held the moisture, but maybe not quite as much as it would have with daily use of a heavier cream. My skin didn't feel dewy or sticky, but had more of a smooth, satiny feeling that lasted. *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

I learned to incorporate this delightful, cooling gel into my routine -- it is a deceptively simple and effective formula with moderate staying power. Since humidity has come back into town, I noticed that applying this moisturizer when I'm hot and lethargic has a nice cooling effect. When applying after a shower, I let myself air-dry so it doesn't slip off. A small amount (like... 2 french fries worth of ketchup) goes a long way. Apply and then layer when dry. Though the formula cools skin down, it didn't do anything particularly special for razor bumps, redness, or little patches of heat rash. I can tell that incorporating this into my routine has provided beneficial moisture, and that's what I am ultimately going after! *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

I am a total lotion skeptic and I was fully prepared to not like this one because I usually find a reason to not like others but I can say honestly that I love this product! It goes on easily (not sticky, doesn't require a ton of product) it absorbs nicely and doesn't leave you oily but you still feel nicer than before you put it on, and I have really noticed my skin softening from using it. Maybe just because it's the only lotion I've ever really used consistently but still, it works 😜 *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

After using this product for 3 weeks my skin feels less dry, less bumpy, and revitalized. Easy to use moisturizer that does its job very well. *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this product! I have been using Cetaphil's most hydrating body cream for several years now. My one complaint with it was that it left my skin with a slightly greasy film, which is particularly annoying in the summer/humid months. Perhaps what I like best about this moisturizer is that it rubs in very quickly and leaves no feeling of residue - ideal for humid climates and warmer months. I also like that you can refrigerate this product and apply it cold for a wonderful cooling sensation. I did experience a couple of isolated and very small breakouts on my upper chest and upper glutes when I first started using it, but that may just be because my skin is pretty reactive to switching products. That said, I plan to incorporate this product into my routine, primarily as a summertime/warm weather moisturizer. I have yet to see how it performs in the colder/dryer months, so that will be the final test! *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.

I would also say this product is a great option for people living in warmer and more humid climates. Overall, anyone could benefit from adding this to their routine!Carissa Tester

This is very refreshing especially in summer. It is unscented which I appreciate and I have sensitive skin but had no irritation. It absorbs quickly although I do feel the need to wipe my hands after using it. My skin feels hydrated the next day after using it at night. A little goes a long way and it does make skin feel smoother as well as hydrated. *This person tested samples for three weeks pre-launch.
