Another banger Absolutely love the new holiday set. As a buffing bar enthusiast, happy to say this year’s holiday gift set is even better than previous years (although I am always rooting for Debaser to return!!!). Love these minis to gift to others and/or use for travel. They’re small and easy to pack but still have all of the grit and power of the full-size bar. It really is the full-size bar scaled down, which is really unique and nice for minis. There are two new scents this year, which I love. First is lemon, which I was a little skeptical about at first, but it’s actually not too sweet-smelling at all. It’s more of a fresh zest, and it feels really nice to have that kind of citrusy experience for exfoliation. The other new scent is my favorite, cacao. Also not too sweet at all, more of a true cacao-like experience that feels very naturally scented. Both have about the same grit and exfoliation power as the OG and banana palm. Super excited and definitely going to be getting more for gifts this year.I would recommend this product to: Friends, family, women & menFotini Tester

Perfect Scent Discovery Set I absolutely loved this box set for two reasons; one being that it had my fav affogato l’orange that I love wearing during the colder months, and two being that it comes with TWO, new scents! It’s the perfect holiday discovery set for finding your fav scent if you haven’t tried them yet. As a girl with KP, the buffing bars are a staple in my shower routine because they not only help exfoliate my skin, but hydrate it as well. I get my legs and bikini waxed and my wax specialist noticed a huge change in my skin texture once I introduced these to my routine. My legs are smoother and the hair is removed so much easier than before, no more trapped hair under skin! Now a little about the new, limited edition scents… I’m a huge fan. I liked using the eternal lemon bar during morning showers because the scent was so invigorating for me. It’s that fresh lemon you expect, but it smells like a real lemon, not that synthetic lemon fragrance you get from cleaning products. It took me back to my childhood and climbing my grandma’s lemon trees in Greece. Using it first thing in the morning puts me in a great mood and headspace. The other new scent, cocoa delight, became part of my nighttime routine. The cocoa reminded me of a good cup of hot cocoa, the expensive kind. It made me feel so cozy at night and helped wind me down after a long day. Using it relaxed me in the best way. Overall, I think this is a great set to gift friends or yourself this holiday season. You get two bangers along with two new fun scents and they’re great to travel with! I received a complimentary product in exchange for my honest review. But I made out like a bandit because I love and use these products regularly anyways.I would recommend this product to: Friends & family. Anyone really.Anita Tester

must have <3 i missed out on last year’s gift set, so i’m super excited for this years! the packaging is so cute! i like the sizes of the bars which are great for travel. i also like that it’s designed like a book and in an eye catching bright orange color. this year’s set has two new limited edition scents, cocoa delight and eternal lemon. so far, cocoa delight is becoming a fast favorite! it’s a bittersweet chocolate with black sesame, pistachios, and cardamom. it literally smells like dark chocolate. the nuttiness of the notes gives off whiffs of smokiness. made my bathroom smell like a spa! now for eternal lemon, this one smells like a yummy lemon bar right out of the wrapper. it’s a zesty lemon balanced by ginger, petit grain, and vanilla. i’m not getting the whiffs of ginger, but once lathered up, it transforms into this sparkling fizzy lemon with a dash of vanilla. it’s invigorating and fresh, and made me miss the last bit of summer! not to mention - the exfoliation of these bars are amazing and truly elite. i won’t use anything else. it really exfoliates and smooths out my skin. begone bumps and dry skin! (i received this complimentary product in exchange for my honest review:)I would recommend this product to: if ya got chicken skin, dry heels (or toes), all around body crusties!Tess Tester

Cuckoo for Cocoa Delight This Buffing Bar collection is such a delight. From the moment you open the package (recyclable, thoughtful) to seeing the little book (beautifully designed) and finally to being greeted by what feels like little bon-bons. The scents are delightful, I'm not usually a fan of gourmands as they can feel childish but these are sophisticated and complex. I'm particularly enchanted by the Cocoa Delight, it feels like a tiny morsel of gorgeous dark chocolate at the end of a decadent meal. Eternal Lemon and Affogato L'orange remind me of a 1920's soda shop I used to go to as a child, chic and lived in. Green Banana is verdant and a bit grassy, a little reminder or summers past or those to come. Exfoliation is an important part of my beauty routine, and at times it can be a bit dull or rote but this makes the chore seems more glamorous and lovely.I would recommend this product to: someone who needs a chic gift, people with KP or anyone who wants to be smooth as butter.Benjamin Tester

Some truly incredible scents in this booklet This little booklet of soaps was so cute. Immediately I was thinking of who I would gift this to, I think I landed on giving it to the friends who read everything and I never know what book to get them. On the scent side of things this range of predominantly fruit based scents are a lot more mature and richer than you expect based on knowing that they are mostly fruits. The Green Banana has already earned a permanent placement in my soap rotation, but the Eternal lemon is putting up stiff competition as it feels like the best of lemon products without ever being too harsh, or chemically. Soft Services really knows how to balance their scents. With the Cocoa Delight, it is a rich and warming scent that in addition to the chocolate reminds me of pistachio gelato for some reason. Great soaps all around. I did receive this product for free in exchange for a truthful review.I would recommend this product to: People looking for a gift for your friends who really need to get better soap in their shower routine.Quinn Tester

Amazing Variety + Reusable Package! This holiday set is such a lovely little treat for the colder months. I live in a colder city, so fall and winter can sometimes feel like one long slog of chilly days, and I love having products that make shower time feel a little more special. I evangelize about the green banana scent all the time (my usual bar). But there’s two new scents that are also amazing: The Cocoa Delight bar is wonderful when I’m craving a cozy, comforting shower. it feels like the perfect cold-weather indulgence. But when I need something brighter and more refreshing, the Lemon bar is fantastic. That fresh, uplifting scent is especially welcome when the gray, cold days start to drag. I also really love the packaging. It’s designed like a little book, which makes it feel special right from the start, but it’s also something you can actually repurpose. Once you’ve used the bars, I could easily see using it as a little bedside jewelry case, but I will probably use mine for storing small treasures/passport on a bookshelf. It’s a thoughtful touch that makes the whole set feel even more giftable, and reusable.I would recommend this product to: Anyone with KP, preshaving, or just a little indulgenceKrista Tester

Cocoa Delight is a delight! Another cute holiday set with fun new scents! I love the new cocoa delight scent. It almost smells like a chocolate bar melting in an espresso cup, perfect for a cold winter morning to perk yourself up. I love that it's not too sweet. Normally I'm not a gourmand fragrance girl, but this is my favorite of the bunch. The bars are a must-have in my shower, and I love that I can use the minis for travel with fun new scents.I would recommend this product to: Any buffing bar lovers who want to treat themselves OR any boys in your life that you think could use some exfoliationMyles Tester

And of course the packaging is playful and festive and makes you look like a great gift giver, and if you choose to gift this, you are!I would recommend this product to: Anyone and everyoneAnna

Obsessed with the new scents!! The packaging is really impressive, it opens like a book of scents and would be great for gifting. Love the new scents - Eternal Lemon smells like fresh lemon zest with a bit of sweetness underneath, like someone's baking a lemon cake in the next room. Cocoa Delight is super cozy. It's warm, a little toasty, similar to unsweetened cocoa powder and it smells expensive. All four bars lather up nicely and provide the exfoliation I'm used to with the traditional Buffing Bar. A great set for holiday vibes and a new take on a product I love!

One of the classics This set is EVERYTHING. Each bar has such a unique, delicate scent. My personal favorite is the cocoa delight. It’s sweet, it’s grounding, and reminds me of products my mom used to use. These bars are truly the best exfoliants I’ve ever used. They are incredibly effective yet not harsh on your skin. One of the classics! This set was given to me in exchange for an honest review.I would recommend this product to: Anyone looking for baby soft skinLiz Tester

A beautiful mini collection of buffing bars I love this Buffing Bar Miniature Collection! The packaging looks like a miniature hardcover book, and each of the bars is individually wrapped and nestled perfectly inside the open “book.” Each scent is very specific and remind me of each of the four seasons - green banana’s scent is fresh and gentle like the spring, eternal lemon is bright and direct like the summer, cocoa delight reminds me of autumn campfires with cups of coca and affogato l’orange is deep, rich and a little citrusy like wintertime holidays. Each mini bar packs a huge punch with superstar micro crystals. This is a great set to gift or treat yourself to.I would recommend this product to: Anyone who loves exfoliatingNicole Tester

Just when I thought the buffing bar couldn't get better it did I have a lot of really great things to say about this gift set but let me firs say I have KP on the back of my arms and legs for my entire life and this product is one of the few things that really keep my skin smooth in a way that I always thought was unachievable! And with that being said, this is a fabulous way to try all of the different fragrances (im obsessed with the chocolate and green banana) but I also really love the size of this its perfect for really scrubbing lol and also traveling! I would highly recommend this set!!I would recommend this product to: Anyone with KP, or just looking for a genuine exfoliation that smells good and doesnt leave the skin feeling dry or stripped. Id also recommend gifting it to your bougie friends for the holidays xxAnn Tester

Latest and greatest! I gifted Volume I last Christmas to every woman I care about because I love the buffing bar and use it regularly. The latest version contains 2 bars with new fragrances, and they both smell like dessert. Eternal Lemon smells heavenly, like some fabulous citrus confection, and is my favorite fragrance so far (though I still like the green banana and the original scent as well). The Cocoa Delight is indeed a delight, and if there were no lemon dessert on the menu I'd certainly reach for it. These bars all have the microcrystals that don't gunk up the shower or leave a slick residue. They are my most preferred way to exfoliate. And I am also crazy about the miniature size, I actually prefer it to the full size bar.I would recommend this product to: I don't recommend it, I outright give it to everybody I care about. It is a superior exfoliating product.Katie

I love Soft Services Buffing Bar I love Soft Services and the Buffing Bar in general and this gift set is great! The packaging is super sturdy and feels festive. I’d happily give it as a gift. The box has two existing scents and then two new scents, Cocoa and Lemon. The Cocoa scent is a bit richer and feels perfect for Fall. It does not smell like fake chocolate (positive)! The Lemon scent is very fresh. It smells like a lemon-y vanilla to me, like lemon ice cream vibes, and I love it. (Sometimes lemon skews a little too kitchen cleaner but not this one.) I hope this one ends up in a big bar!!! Truly you can’t go wrong with the Buffing Bars and this is a great little trial set. The bars are easy to hold and smooooooth my skin just like the big ones (I always use it on the back of my arms/legs and inner knees). A+!I would recommend this product to: Anyone with skin that could use some smoothingAnna

Great new scents, love the travel friendly size Obsessed with this product. The banana and orange are always a hit, but i love the new lemon and the chocolate scents. The lemon reminds me of fresh lemon sorbet in summer, and chocolate evokes memories of eating fresh patisserie in Paris. The smaller size makes them that much more portable, and you definitely need these on your next vacation to combat ingrown hairs! Remember to store this outside the shower bc it will get mushy and unusable if it stays wet too long, and this product is just too good to waste. Love love love these bars!I would recommend this product to: People who struggle with in grown hair and strawberry skin
