A full breakdown of our treatment-focused products.
Dedicated to the skin below your neck. Dedicated to the skin below your neck. Soft Services’ inception came about from a lack of treatments dedicated to the unique-yet-common skin concerns of the body.
Concerns like rough texture on your butt, bacne, ingrowns along the bikini line, and discolored armpits have traditionally been taboo to openly discuss within the beauty space, which also results in a lack of education on this front—so we gladly stepped in to fill the gap in May 2021. Now ~3 years later, we’ve partnered with Sephora to reach even more folks looking for these solutions nationwide and to fearlessly steer the body care category into the future.
When thinking through a well-rounded body routine, 4 general stages come to mind: (1) Cleanse (2) Treatment (3) Moisturize (4) Protect.
Today, we’re breaking down our treatment step offerings, to help guide those that don’t know where to start ↓ Today, we’re breaking down our treatment step offerings, to help guide those that don’t know where to start ↓ Buffing Bar Good for: rough texture, bumpy skin, KP, ingrown hair, removing stubborn deodorant, prep removal of sunless tanning products While bar soap shaped and sudsy, this product is not meant to replace your normal body cleanser.
This is a moderate-to-intense physical exfoliant created for targeted use on the body... though lots of us buffing fanatics use it all over the body because it just feels so darn good. Cleanse as normal, and a few times a week in the shower also follow-up with Buffing Bar on any any areas with rough texture, bumps (including keratosis pilaris), and ingrown hair.
The mineral microcrystals are compressed within the bar, which also contains shea butter and glycerin to make for a slippy, hydrating base that won’t strip your skin—though definitely follow up with moisturizer out the shower.
com , and select Sephora stores Smoothing Solution Good for: rough texture, bumpy skin, KP, ingrown hair, discoloration, strawberry skin, post-shave treatment This is a gel serum for body skin that targets many of the same concerns as Buffing Bar, in addition to discoloration. This leave-on format of a chemical exfoliant allows the active ingredients in the formula to stay on the skin longer and do their job, while remaining gentle for daily use.
For those with stubborn and recurring texture and KP, a combination of a physical and a chemical exfoliant is recommended. Using a physical exfoliant too frequently can be sensitizing for most and in turn further exacerbate skin issues, so we made Smoothing Solution to serve as Buffing Bar’s partner in crime.
com , and select Sephora stores Clearing Mist Good for: body acne its accompanying hyperpigmentation This is a medicated breakout tonic that dispenses via an extra fine mist, allowing for easy and even application on hard to reach areas of the body. After the shower, spray over acne-prone areas on clean, dry skin.
