It is the same profile as the body butter under the same name, so the two can be used in one routine without two smells arguing in a small bathroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLet It Sit Before You Rinse\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAMINNAH asks for the scrub to be massaged in and then left on for a minute or two. That minute is when the butters transfer to skin instead of leaving with the water. \u003cstrong\u003eSkipping it costs you most of what you paid for\u003c\/strong\u003e, because a scrub without that pause is abrasion and very little else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eReasons To Pay For A Different Jar\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn unmodified base is exactly that: it does the job and adds nothing. If your skin needs a harder grain, a softer one, or an occlusive that plant butters cannot supply, one of the variations serves you better. Fruit fragrances also fade quickly in a rinse-off, so this is not the way to buy a scent you want lingering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions About XOXO Sugar Scrub\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does XOXO smell of?\u003c\/strong\u003e Juicy strawberry with a green kiwi tartness under it, named by the maker across every XOXO product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a plain formula worse than one with additions?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, it is narrower.
