Description
Our Pink Grapefruit essential oil is extracted by cold pressing the fragrant rinds of the Citrus paradisi fruit (grapefruit peels). Pink Grapefruit essential oil has an uplighting and refreshing scent! Its fresh, citrusy scent is truly irresistible and bound to awaken your senses!
Grapefruit essential is popularly used in aromatherapy and in natural beauty and body care products. Grapefruit essential oil is used to enhance energy levels, manage stress and anxiety, and to manage feelings of discomfort experienced from aches.
Grapefruit oil, like all citrus peel oils, has a predominance of Limonene, the bright, lemony monoterpene that provides an absolutely delightful aroma when diffused to refresh and disinfect room environments. Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) is a hybrid of Pomelo (Citrus maxima) and Sweet Orange (Citrus x sinensis). The cheerful and calming aroma awakens the senses and makes for a favorite in massage blends, skin toners, outdoor sprays, oily skin and scalp preparations, and cleansers.
In cosmetic formulation, Grapefruit Essential Oil is reputed to help maintain smooth skin, to help reduce the appearance of cellulite, and to help balance oily skin and hair.
