When it comes to skincare, I love a product that works smarter, not harder. I’m all for a luxurious body lotion or rich hand cream, but constantly reapplying it all day? Slippery hands? An oily film on every surface I touch? Pass.

So when I discovered Soft Services and their Theraplush "Hold" Overnight Repair Treatment, I was intrigued. Unlike traditional hand creams that require multiple applications (and inevitably get washed away), this one is designed to work while you sleep: no fuss, no mess – just a gorgeous product, and even better results.

Unsurprisingly, it’s made by Soft Services, also known as “The Body Skin Experts™.” Soft Services has built its entire brand around bringing the efficacy of facial skincare to the rest of the body, tackling common concerns with science-backed formulas. As someone who appreciates both great packaging and high-performance products, I knew I had to try it.

A Soft Skin Solution?

A retinol treatment designed to nourish your hands, including your nails and cuticles, overnight, Theraplush originally caught my attention because – I’ll admit it – it’s a beautiful product. There was obviously so much attention to detail on its outer design that I figured if half as much consideration had been put into its contents, I’d be impressed. 

I took a closer look at what was inside to confirm this, and the results were as anticipated: this hand repair treatment is formulated to deeply moisturize with hero ingredients Panthenol and Colloidal Oatmeal – and it also contains 0.05% retinol, which works to reduce fine lines and age spots over time. While retinol is super buzzy right now for facial skincare, I hadn’t heard much about it in the bodycare department. Interested in learning more, I added it to cart.  

When my Theraplush arrived, I was immediately impressed by its packaging, as expected. It’s a delicately constructed box made out of paper, and yes, I am here for the sustainability factor, but it’s also so cute. The attention to detail is a really nice touch, and I felt so fancy opening it up. Inside, I found my Theraplush, and I sat it on my bedside table so it could patiently await my bedtime shower and skincare routine.

Putting Soft Services to the Test

That night, I showered, dried off, and did my usual simple facial skincare routine. Then, I took Theraplush out of its packaging and assembled the case and pod set. I love that the system is refillable, making it a lot less wasteful than other hand creams that come in tubs and tubes. Plus, the case is chic enough that it doubles as decor on my nightstand, and it dispenses just the right amount of product. 

I applied Theraplush as the last step in my nighttime routine (I opted for the scent “Hold” and found it subtle and soothing).  The next morning, I immediately noticed my hands felt softer, and smoother. 

Over the next three nights I noticed my hands getting progressively smoother and softer. It was as though my hands were aging in reverse. I’m also deeply obsessed with the fact that it works while I’m asleep. I didn’t realize how frustrating other hand lotions were until I no longer had to deal with constant reapplication or slippery hands throughout the day. I keep this specifically on my nightstand for nighttime use, and it works so well, there’s no need to bring it anywhere else. Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about it.

The Verdict

When I find a product that works for me, I repurchase it over and over and over again, and that’s likely to be the case for Theraplush “Hold” from Soft Services. As an added bonus, the packaging is sustainably-minded, so I know I’m creating less waste and saving money with , refill pods only being $36. I love how the product feels, and I am blown away by the results. I’m excited to try other products from the brand (I’ve got my eyes on the Buffing Bar next) – because when it comes to body skincare, Soft Services does things right.
