Launched on October 10, the 'Buffing Bar Miniature Collection' arrives exclusively on Sephora.com, while the limited-edition '[Debaser Buffing Bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buffing-bar)' returns to SoftServices.com after its 2024 sell-out debut. The Miniature Collection features four travel-friendly versions of [Soft Services’](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/green-banana) award-winning Buffing Bars -- 'Original,' '[Affogato L’Orange](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/affogato-lorange-buffing-bar),' 'Green Banana,' and 'Debaser' -- offering exfoliation for every preference from fragrance-free to fig-scented. Each bar targets texture concerns like KP, bumps, and dryness with superfine sanding crystals in a hydrating base. The reissued Debaser Buffing Bar, developed with fragrance house D.S. & Durga, layers notes of bergamot, coconut milk, fig, and tonka bean for a sensory, skin-smoothing experience. Soft Services’ two holiday launches underscore the brand’s growing foothold in the prestige body care category. By expanding into Sephora and reviving a cult collaboration, the brand continues to blur the lines between fragrance and skincare -- positioning itself as both a sensory indulgence and a results-driven essential.
