It’s Acne Awareness Month—a concern that affects 50 million (!) people every year. @rebecca.zhou’s 20-year journey with body acne, from teenage breakouts caused by dance leotards to finding a non-backless wedding dress, was an important driver in the creation of Soft Services. If you’ve been trying to find a solution to body acne and haven’t found success, we’re here to help. Send us a DM so we can build a routine for you. 1. Rebecca (w/ a clear back!) in Pantelleria 2.

Mother Earth was the first spa. We explored four animal bathing rituals that prove self-care isn’t new, it’s nature… 1. Capybaras love to lounge in warm water, especially during cool seasons for thermoregulation, relaxation, and skin health. In Japanese zoos, they’re given yuzu fruit baths in winter, and they seem to adore the scent and warmth. These giant rodents are very social, group bathing strengthens bonds, not unlike humans in a hot tub. 2. Birds dip into shallow water sources shimmying and flapping to get water deep into their plumage. After bathing, they retreat to preen with their beaks, realigning feathers and distributing natural oils. Their careful preening post-bath is essential for insulation, waterproofing, and flight. The bird bath, it turns out, is part spa, part survival strategy. 3. Elephants suck water into their trunks and spray it over their backs, followed by dust or mud to create a protective layer. The mud acts like sunscreen and insect repellent. Their wrinkled skin helps trap the dust and mud in folds, extending its protective effects. This ritual is social and baby elephants often learn by copying adults in a group bath. A full body skin care routine passed down from trunk to trunk. 4. Japanese macaques, or snow monkeys, are the only primates besides humans known to regularly bathe in hot springs. In the snowy mountains of Nagano, they soak to stay warm and studies show these thermal dips lower stress hormones and promote social bonding. The behavior is learned and passed on, mostly by females, making it both a wellness ritual and a cultural tradition.

People who know us both say my dad and I are a lot alike. What an honor. My dad is warm, curious, articulate, and has the best sense of humor of anyone I know — I could only hope these are the qualities they’re referring to. One place where my dad and I differ, however, is our personal care routines. You may remember my enthusiasm for body care from my skin hydration quest earlier this year. It’s not like I needed another excuse to gush about the Soft Services products to my friends, but my corneometer results only strengthened my case. I’ve been able to successfully convert most of them to a Soft Services routine, so I decided to try and get the biggest fancy soap skeptic in my life on board — my dad. Swipe for snapshots of how introducing my dad to a body care routine went—and give your dad the gift of soft, finally moisturized skin at softservices.com.

Haven’t thought about pH since high school chem... or ever? Time to crack open the Soft Services newsletter. Short for “potential of hydrogen,” pH measures how acidic or alkaline (or neutral) something is, on a scale of 0 to 14. Your skin’s sweet spot is between 4.7 and 6—slightly acidic, perfectly balanced. But how do you know if your skincare is supporting that balance or throwing it off? We’ve got the answers. Read the full pH breakdown at the link in bio. 📖

We, too, love bananas. Especially the green (and buffing) kind.

For decades, skincare efficacy has often come at the cost of experience—texture, scent, and feel were sacrificed in the name of results. The better a product worked, the more unpleasantly unbearable it seemed to be. At Soft Services, we use the phrase Everything Can Be Different™️ to think about how we approach a challenge, unconventional opportunity, or hard-to-execute idea. And yes, this includes innovating on formula textures too. Explore our full range of elegant-to-apply yet efficacious products for body skin. Pictured in order: Carea Cream, Speed Soak, Smoothing Solution, Comfort Cleanse, Clearing Mist, Buffing Bar, Theraplush, Software Update.
