01 · The house

Plant oils, pressed and poured in small batches.

XO Botanicals makes skincare from plants: oils cold-pressed from seeds and kernels, butters from nuts, and the waters left when flowers are distilled. Organic and wildcrafted, with no soaps, detergents or fillers, and hydrosols with no preservatives.

Every ingredient has a page. Tap any name on the label and the XO Encyclopedia of Botanicals explains the plant behind it: where it grows and what it gives the skin.

02 · The ritual

Cleanse, hydrate, nourish.

Step 01

Cleanse

Cleansing Oil

At night: a dropper full massaged into damp skin. Then use the warm, moist face cloth to gently remove the cleanser.

Step 02

Hydrate

Hydrosol

Misted generously over face and neck, night and morning.

Step 03

Nourish

Facial Serum · Pomegranate

Three to five drops pressed into damp skin, more if it asks for it.

Step 04 · Optional

Seal it in

Snowfall · Solstice Butter

Snowfall overnight when the air turns cold; Solstice for body, hands and the morning face.

The ritual is meant to slow the day down: a warm, moist face cloth, a few deep breaths of the plants, a few minutes that belong to no one else. How to use XO, night and morning

04 · Read the label

When the front of the bottle says pomegranate, the back should too.

PomegranatePunica granatum

An ingredient list runs from most to least, the way a food label does. Whatever sits at or near the end is there in only a small amount, however large it is printed on the front.

On the Pomegranate Facial Serum, strawberry seed oil comes first and pomegranate seed oil second.

Organic plant oils, each one there for the skin, and none there to fill the bottle.

06 · Find your ritual

One ritual, for every skin.

The cleansing oil and the serum are made gentle enough for every skin type; what you choose is the scent, and whether to seal. Three questions, and you know which XO is yours.

Every plate is also a print. See the prints
