Love’s Baby Soft Day is annually observed on May 7. If you were a teenager in the United States during the 1980s, you understand what we are talking about. Love’s Baby Soft was a favourite among teenage women. Today, every lifestyle brand, top model, famous actor, and influential figure has their own cosmetic product line. Typically, it is difficult to keep up with the multitude of new brands that are constantly appearing. However, until a few decades ago, only a handful of companies dominated the market, and Love’s Baby Soft line was one of them.
The Background of Love’s Baby Soft Day
A symbol of femininity that became synonymous with the phrase “feminine of the feminine.” Love’s Baby Soft was introduced in 1974 and was an instant success. The most popular product at the time was a fragrance from Love’s Baby Soft line that had a strong baby powder aroma. Surprisingly, the product is still available in supermarkets. However, it no longer functions as a symbol of femininity, but rather as a bottle of nostalgia.
Love’s Baby Soft product line may have had a questionable view of femininity, particularly when viewed through the lens of today’s awakened societal norms. Consequently, a change was required to their selling point over time. One can only imagine what a disaster it would be if some of these taglines and descriptions had to be used today. “Because innocence is sexier than you think” and “Underneath it all, she’s baby soft” accompanied by images of prepubescent girls can raise serious concerns, such as, “Where are you going with this?” In one of the television advertisements, the fragrance was characterised as “a cuddly, clean baby that grew up to be very seductive.”
Although the brand was ostensibly aimed at adult women, their pricing and marketing suggested that the intended market was young females contemplating womanhood. Brands and media have, thankfully, come a long way since then. Today, Love’s Baby Soft is a container filled with pleasant memories and a sweet scent.
