Buffing Bar

Microcrystal Exfoliant

  • for body
  • net wt 3.75 oz (2)
  • fragrance free

Made for areas of the body that would benefit from weekly moderate-to-intense physical exfoliation, the Buffing Bar is good for keratosis pilaris (“KP”), stubborn ingrown hairs, and rough, bumpy skin texture.

Or you can enjoy the Buffing Bar for no specific reason—like a happy bear rubbing its back against a tree. Whatever the reason, dead skin and excess keratin are thoroughly sloughed away, releasing trapped hairs and revealing the soft, newer skin below after each use.

This is a set of two physical exfoliating bricks for body skin made of superfine sanding crystals compressed within a moisturizing, soothing base.

In a study of 33 particpants:
—96% agree Buffing Bar exfoliates without irritating skin
—93% said skin felt softer and smoother in 1 week
—86% said skin was less rough and bumpy in 1 week
—79% agree Buffing Bar is the best body scrub they've ever used

  5. buffing away stubborn waterproof sunscreen

However with this soap it was everything I thought it would smell like and more. I’m obsessed with the smell. So much so that I wish soft services made a version of their other products like the carea lotion with the same scent as well.

      Gorgeously scented, perfectly scrubby. This is the perfect upgrade to an already perfect product. The scent is understated but distinct - fresh and optimistic, not too "tropical" in a treacly way. The qualities of the buffing bar are the same -- both creamy and gritty, leaving skin all over your body feeling perfectly slick and smooth, and conveying a truly freshly-scrubbed feeling. This is very giftable, very chic, and truly the part of my shower routine I MOST look forward to -- a subtle delight to the senses.

      Nostalgic and fresh It smells nostalgic but also fresh! I love the original buffing bar and like that this scent doesn’t interfere with other scented items when I shower, it’s a really great complement to other products because it is not at all overpowering. Love it.

      The classic but even fresher... I love the classic buffing bar so much so it's refreshing too have this amazing scent to make my shower even better! It makes me feel invigorated but calm, a great way to start the day. The fragrance in this bar has some notes which recall verdant, fresh vegetation. Cut fresh grass, banana leaf, plus a base note of something earthy and warm. I think this is a good year round scent and will layer well with any fragrances you wear.

      Beautiful scent, summer jn a bar I honestly cannot remember how I used to exfoliate before the Buffing Bar came along - I have really sensitive skjn and often struggle with folliculitis and miscellaneous bumps. This bar really helps more than anything I've tried previously. I usually go back and forth between scented and unscented products because I really enjoy a fragrant shower. The Green Banana Buffing Bar js perfect, it smells so green, verdant and fresh. It truly enhances everything I already love about buffing. This bar js so summery and gorgeous, it reminds me of the feeling of showering after the beach, right before you're about to go to dinner. It's a sunset in a bar. I absolutely love thjs.

      I’m loving this Banana buffing bar! I’m loving this new Banana Buff bar! Works the same as the original bar to get rid of my pesky ingrown hairs and arm bumps, but now with a yummy banana smell while bathing. It actually reminds me of the banana flavored laffy taffy candy I used to enjoy when I was young! Great product!

      Same great exfoliation, amazing new scent ! I was a fan of the original blue buffing bar, and I’m a fan of this new fun twist! Love the color and the fresh soft scent. It is NOT artificial, neon sickly sweet banana scent. But rather the very subtle smell of a young, slightly underripe banana, which is exactly how I like to eat mine ! Same amazing exfoliation, fun new scent, and as always an ABSOLUTE must have if you’re going to doing self tanning this summer. My biggest advice is to splurge for the soap container / holder - because if you’re gonna invest in this soap you’re gonna want it to last. And it’s just too good to sit and turn to goo in your shower between uses, so do yourself a favor and use it, but take care of it , let it dry and store it properly , and get every last bang for your buck!
      I would recommend this product to: Anyone with skin. Ppl getting ready to shed their winter dry skin for summer. And ppl who self tan !

      Power Tool for your Skin! Think of it as a power tool for your body skincare - use carefully, it’s strong stuff, but when you find out what pressure works for your purposes it’s wonderful. I like to use it on my feet a lot as a barefoot kinda girl. Might be a bit much for some parts though, go slowly and be mindful of how you use it and you’ll love this.
      I would recommend this product to: People who love physical exfoliants. If you loved the texture of St. Ives back in the day this is like a bar form!

      Chicken skin repaired / dry rot skin Hey everyone, it’s Gino. I’m 36 years old and I suffer from dry a$$ "chicken skin" is what they call it. I've had bumps and dry rot (it looks like ) forever. I’ve used everything I can think of under the sun. everything from soaps, different bars of soaps, every dove soap you can imagine, creams, used cleaning skin pads, Everything. Absolutely nothing seemed to work. I honestly gave up a few years ago. I wanna wear tank tops again and show off my tattoos like everyone else does. My skin..mainly my upper arms were terrible. I say WERE because I ended up ordering the buffering bar. It should be called a magic skin bar. After 2 times my skin was repaired almost back to what I remember as normal . Sheesh. I don't even remember the last time I felt my arms solf. Crazy. I'm just sharing my story because I gave up on my skin and I'm glad I didn't. It took me a while to find this buffering bar. But damn it I'm glad I did . Thx again. Much appreciated.
      I would recommend this product to: Anyone with chicken skin arms or dry arms . Perfect match

      Great for Keratosis Pilaris and cost saving! This is a revolutionary product for me. It's so effective in treating my Keratosis Pilaris. It's economical too, as you get 2 soap bars. Each of which last me about 2-3 months! I just wish soft services delivered to Ireland as it can be an ordeal using an intermediary!!

      This buffing bar is a luxurious little treat! I've had dark underarms / bikini area my whole life, and honestly had no idea how to fix it or get rid of it. I've tried everything and nothing has worked. Cue this buffing bar! It's magical! It works! It's the buffing bar I never knew I needed in this life. It scrubs away all the dead skin buildup and leaves my skin so smooth and soft. I also like to use it for bumpy strawberry skin. I have some of that on my knees, and this helps it be a lot less bumpy. She's a little pricey, but totally worth it!! I also LOVE the green banana scent. PLS make a matching body lotion/wash/deodorant/literally any body product in this scent!

      Wish the smell was stronger Not sure if I got a defective bar, but the smell is much less potent than I thought it would be. This truly smells like a regular bar of soap, which is a bummer bc the green banana smell was what I was most excited about :( the exfoliation however, is NEXT LEVEL and my skin feels so soft! While I’m excited to see continued results, I do wish I had just gotten one of the routine sets with the og buffing bar since the green banana smell didn’t hit (could’ve saved me from buying each product separately).

      No surprises here, I loves it So I loveeee the new scent of the buffing bar. Maybe I’m bias because I personally love bananas and topical fragrances, but this one is just the right balance. It’s not over powering, and smells natural. It got me nice and prepped for my trip and took it with me to stay polished in in the Floridian weather/sun!!

      Need something to help with my KP and this is it! I got this because I saw it recommended on TikTok to help with KP. I have small red dots/bumps on the backs of my arms and I’ve tried everything to try to help but nothing has worked. I really like the buffing bar and I think it’s helping to remove the dead skins cells and I hope that over time it reduces the appearance of my strawberry skin. I’ve only used it for a few weeks but it’s helped reduce the redness so far. I’ll definitely be trying other products like the moisturizer!

      Summer Invigoration Who knew platano could be a scent so clean and invigorating! It's the whiff you get when peeling the skin of a fresh green plantain. It's like the middle of a spring bud, zesty but not spicy. With the same exfoliating power of the original blue bar :)

      An everything shower essential! The scent of the new buffing bar reminds me of citrus grooves bathed in sunshine. It’s very light and refreshing and reminiscent of a product that would be used at a spa.The scent is like being back in Hawaii. I have both the original and the new green banana buffing bar and I love them both. This product exfoliates without leaving any sort of greasy film behind. I love using it prior to shaving or after a long day at work (I’m a nurse and frequently feel pretty gross after a shift at the hospital). I also love it for removing any remainders of self tanner. It is a perfect addition to an everything shower!

      Worth every penny! After a few uses the back of my arms are super smooth! I still have some red "chicken skin" dots, but it is improved! Worth every penny. I can tell that one bar is going to last me a long time, which is awesome because you get two!
      I would recommend this product to: Anyone with "chicken skin" or raised bumps

      Amazing results! I absolutely love this buff bar! I tend to get ingrown hairs on my thighs and calfs due to dry skin and I have ‘chicken’ skin on my upper arms. Using this product has dramatically decreased both. I used to be so self conscious of both and now my self confidence is back! Each bar also lasts a good few months so it’s well worth the price!

      Hurts and works so good For my sensitive/reactive skin friends: fair warning, this thing kind of hurts to use. The first time I thought I would for sure get out of the shower to red, raw skin, but nope. Just soft, smooth, non-irritated skin. There’s virtually no scent (the blue color made me think it would have some weird men’s deodorant kind of smell, thankfully not) and the suds it leaves behind are subtle but perfectly suitable as a body wash, so it’s a one step exfoliate and clean. I’ve been using it every day, which means I go through about a bar every month/six weeks, but it’s virtually eliminated the strawberry skin on my legs and helped a ton with the KP on my arms and belly. It’s also done good work on some old scars I have on my legs. If you’re on the fence, give it a shot. But don’t be freaked out if it feels VERY abrasive.
      I would recommend this product to: Anyone!

      the most satisfying back scratch of all time Intensely satisfying. If you love the sensation of a thorough back scratch, you'll love this product. I'd repurchase for that aspect alone, but using the Buffing Bar in coordination with a glycolic acid lotion by Drunk Elephant has done absolute magic for my KP. I have tried tons of different products over the years and nothing really made a difference. But these two together have my skin smoother than it has ever been. Pricey but, in my opinion, worth it.
      I would recommend this product to: anyone dealing with KP or who just enjoys a very thorough exfoliant

      total waste of money for me Maybe I got a dud or something but I experienced *zero* exfoliation. At first I gave it the benefit of the doubt (so many rave reviews!) and thought maybe the first layer just needed to be worn off, but I went through the entire bar and it was like a regular bar of soap I could have gotten for a couple bucks

      Amazing I received the buffing bars as a gift. It worked so well that I gave one of the bars to my best friend and am now ordering my own.

      You have to buy this I've been trying to find something to help my KP for YEARS and this is the only product I've ever used that works. I saw immediate results after one use, and now have been using it 2-3x per week on my arms for about a month and it continues to be amazing. I'll use it 1x week as a full-body exfoliator, and it's also been great on my heels. I will religiously continue buying this as long as it exists.

      Only thing to help my keratosis pilaris in 20 years!! I'm have tried dozens of products and regimens for the keratosis pilaris on my arms for the past literally 20 years, including prescription items from the dermatologist, and nothing has come close to working as well as this bar. It's basically just sandpaper in soap form, but it's so effective. I use this every other day in the shower and the two bars lasted me a year. Great value, highly recommend!!!
      I would recommend this product to: anyone with "chicken skin" on their arms, legs, or bum (too rough for the face)

      BUY IT I have KP on my arms and legs + ingrown hairs (down there) and this bar brought me back! Almost immediate results. Don’t apply pressure as it’s very gritty; you don’t have to do much work.

      Best body scrub I've used Of all the products I've used in the smoothing set I think this one makes the biggest difference! I love the concept of it being a bar with a gritty sand texture rather than messy scrubs. I always get ones in the jar too watery so it looses its grittiness too quickly and ones in a tube seem to be so messy. This is perfect to exfoliate and not get watered down and messy in the shower. You can really feel it working when you use it and my skin feels so much softer. I use it probably 2-3 times a week particularly on my arms and sometimes on my legs as well. The soap home that goes with this is genius to keep the bar lasting as long as possible.
      I would recommend this product to: Anyone with KP or rough, dry patches of skin they want to exfoliate

      This bar actually works!... This bar actually works! My biggest pet peeve with exfoliating products is when there's not enough "scrub" in the product to be effective. The Soft Service buffing bar delivers. I've used whole body application 4 times and am still using the same bar. My winter skin KP is gone and so are wannabe ingrown hairs. Highly recommend.
