How To Use
Apply this gentle face and body cream at least twice daily, in the mornings and evenings before applying any makeup and sunscreen. Reapply after showering or as needed.
Soteri Skin Gentle Start may be combined with a steroidal topical if you are using one. Please apply your steroidal topial first, followed by Soteri Skin Gentle Start.
Many users see results within the first 1-2 weeks! GENTLE START works best when applied twice daily over a 4- 6 week period.
Depending on how irritated your skin is, you may experience a slight sensation of tingling or stinging upon application. This is a positive indication that Soteri Skin Gentle Start has immediately started to work on your skin to restore your acid mantel and balance your surface pH. With continued use and as your skin starts to heal from eczema, the tingling and stinging will fade away, leaving your skin healthy and Eczema free.
GENTLE START is free from preservatives that irritate sensitive skin. To keep the cream as fresh as possible, use the pump bottle and always cover with the cap after using. Keep the cream away from light and moisture, in room temperature. For maximum freshness and potency, use the cream within 6 months of opening.
"The redness is gone, the flares are gone too, and my skin seems more resistant to dietary and environmental factors. I don't feel the dryness anymore and the color and texture of my skin are both so good! I could not be happier!"
"This works better than anything else I’ve tried before."
"Within the first week of using Gentle Start cream, I saw significant improvement - the flare was actually calming down. After 2 weeks I started to integrate the No More Rough Patches cream into my daily use, first mixing a little with the Gentle Start cream then making the full switch by 4 weeks. No more swelling, no more pain, no more flares, no more oozing, and no more peeling! I had my hands back! I have never been so grateful for a product in my life."
"I’ve been on steroid cream and tried endless different skincare products for over 2 years, but nothing really worked. After 2 weeks of using Soteri, I was able to stop using steroids; I was finally free of itchiness and my skin looked smooth again!"
"I started seeing dramatic results within a week, which is not something I usually experience with other skincare products."
"I developed dyshridotic eczema 14 years ago after having my first baby. Now as a busy mom of 5, the raw skin on my palms limit my daily tasks of caring for my family. I tried changing my diet, natural supplements, butters, creams and oils. Helpful but not healing. I tried Soteri Skin twice a day morning and night and it cleared my hands up within a month!! I am amazed!"
"I struggle with eczema on my arms and neck but applying Soteri twice a day has soothed my skin to the point where I do not have to rely on prescription creams anymore. All my eczema patches have cleared up! My skin feels soft and smooth and the redness is gone. I will continue to use Soteri Skin products from now on. Overall, I'm very impressed!"
"Finally a relief! This cream not only significantly improved my condition, but also seems to enhance the efficacy of topical steroids. My skin started to heal faster after I started including Soteri in my routine. Some itchy, red patches on my body even cleared by only using Soteri, without the use of steroids! This never happened to me with any OTC eczema creams, no matter what they claimed, for decades of my life living with eczema."
"I've struggled with eczema for years, doing all kinds of things to heal it naturally (leaky gut diet, topical creams, supplements, etc.) but no matter what I did, I still had dry eczema patches on my neck and arms. I had to use prescription creams daily to manage the discomfort but I knew I wanted another option. Soteri Skin came across my path and I am so thankful. Soteri Skin was a huge part of restoring the health of my skin. After using Soteri for a few months, my skin is calm and clear, and I'll continue to use it from now on!"
Why It Works
Soteri Skin’s signature pH/Lock complex immediately starts working to restore the skin’s acid mantle, the acidic film on the skin’s surface, which is usually disrupted when skin is irritated.
It also corrects the skin’s pH to an optimal 4.7 level and keeps it balanced for a full 12 hours.
Over time, as your skin acid mantle is restored, and your skin pH gets corrected, your skin barrier becomes healthier and more resilient. This enables your skin to prevent harmful bacteria, allergens and pathogens from penetrating through and causing inflammation, while locking in moisture. That’s when you’ll start seeing your eczema symptoms reduce and eventually fade away.
Ingredients Highlights
Soothes the itch and acts as an anti-inflammatory.
Calms the skin and helps to lock in moisture.
Supplements the skin barrier and supports skin repair.
Improve skin hydration and nourish the skin microbiome.

General Questions
While many people see improvement within the first week, this isn’t true for everyone. You can expect to see results within 3-4 weeks after starting to use your Soteri products twice daily.
Currently, we only ship within the U.S. If you’re outside the U.S., sign up for our mailing list and we’ll let you know as soon as Soteri ships in your area. And feel free to shoot us a note at hi@soteriskin.com so we know where Soteri should be next!
Soteri products are formulated to be safe for the most sensitive of skin (ie. eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and xerosis) and even damaged skin.
Most skin conditions involve disruption of the balance between the skin barrier, acid mantle, and microbiome, which Soteri was specifically created to correct.
Try Soteri and see if you like it (we think you will). If you don’t, we have a 30-day no-questions-asked return policy.
While some people never experience this sensation upon applying Soteri skincare, others may find that they experience stinging or tingling. Don’t worry; the tingling sensation is perfectly normal. It’s an indication that your skin barrier may have been compromised, and that our formulation is working to reset your skin's balance. It should fade as your skin recovers. In fact, you can use the tingling as a feedback mechanism to assess the health of your skin!
You can return your Soteri product within 30 days of receiving it for a full refund. Just email us at customersupport@soteriskin.com, and we’ll be happy to assist.
Yes, you can use Soteri skincare with topical steroids. For best results apply 5-10 minutes after you apply your steroid cream.
Our products are carefully formulated to provide all the ingredients and hydration that skin needs, so you don’t need to apply other skincare. We include powerful, safe actives such as niacinamide, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid, so Soteri can replace many other serums or treatments.
While Soteri is great on its own, it also plays well with your other skincare faves. If you have a skincare routine you like to stick to, use Soteri in place of your moisturizer. However, we don’t recommend using it with other products that contain AHA, BHA, or PHA, because that can be irritating for your skin, and that’s exactly what we don’t want.
Use Soteri at least twice per day—after cleansing, and whenever skin is dry. You’ll start seeing results in about 3-4 weeks.
Here’s the order we suggest using for your new Soteri skincare regimen.
- Cleanser
- Toner
- Serum
- Soteri Skin products/moisturizer
- SPF
Yes! In fact, BALANCING ACT makes a great base for makeup. We recommend applying BALANCING ACT without any other skincare before putting on your makeup.
In our experience, sample sizes aren’t enough for people to properly test whether Soteri skincare will work for them. We recommend that people apply Soteri for at least 3+ weeks to see results. However, we do offer a 30-day no-questions-asked full refund if you find that Soteri doesn’t work for you.
I've been dealing with red, flaky, dry skin off and on for years. I'm not good at using a daily/nightly cream and the sides of my nose and between my brows especially suffer for it! I now use Soteri Gentle Start (usually for 3 days) when my skin turns red and dry and then follow-up with Soteri Skin "No More Rough-Patches". The dry area clears up in less than a week.
My face looks and feels so much better.
I couldn't be happier with the results. I've used Soteri for a few months now and I can honestly say they have completely transformed my skin. I've suffered from eczema since childhood. I would usually flare up around my eyes and lips and sometimes on my neck. When I started using Gentle Start I felt some stinging and my skin looked a bit irritated. I almost stopped it but I contacted customer service and they were very nice and told me that this was normal and that this would go away after a few days and it did! I'm glad I stuck to it. My skin started healing after a week and was much better after about 3 weeks. It's been a few months now and my skin is completely clear!
I've been using Soteri products for over 8 months, and they've been incredibly effective in managing my eczema. I started with Gentle Start, and now I've been using Gimme More.
Great and effective product
Super great!
