Buffing Bar
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
Soft Services Buffing Bar is a uniquely abrasive physical exfoliant that several creators say makes KP "run in fear." Dr. Ewoma notes the bar starts smooth but becomes rougher after first use, and she finds it "a little bit aggressive" at times. Laura Lavigne calls the formula luxurious but admits she's not a bar soap person, though she would repurchase as a splurge.
