What Else You Need to Know:
Made for areas of the body that would benefit from moderate-to-intense physical exfoliation (back of arms, legs, butt, etc.), this bar sloughs away built-up dead skin and excess keratin, releasing trapped ingrown hairs and immediately revealing softer, smoother skin.
Clinical Results:
In an 8-week consumer-perception study with 28 participants:
- 96% agreed it exfoliated without irritating skin
- 93% said skin felt softer and smoother in 1 week
Suggested Usage:
-Use in the shower on clean, wet skin.
-Wet the bar and gently glide in small, circular motions on parts of your body you wish to smooth.
-Avoid use on active acne and sunburned, broken, or otherwise irritated skin.
-Use firmer pressure on rough spots like heels and elbows, but be gentle on sensitive areas of your body.
-This bar is formulated to be used two to three times per week. Adjust frequency as desired, if tolerated by your skin.
-Rinse, pat dry, and follow up with your preferred body moisturizer.
-Other uses include buffing away stubborn waterproof sunscreen and prepping skin for sunless-tan products.
Precautions:
-This is a physical exfoliating treatment, not a body cleanser. While it suds like a normal soap bar, this is only intended to help it glide comfortably during use (not to wash skin). Please use your normal body cleanser before this product.
-Not intended for facial use. Soft Services products were created especially for the skin on the body, often using higher percentages of performance ingredients, and are not tested on facial skin. Therefore, Soft Services cannot recommend it in good faith.
