Grape Fruit Oil

Grapefruit Essential Oil is extracted from oil glands in the peel of the fruit by the process of cold expression. This is the preferred method of extraction for most citrus oils because they do not take well to heat. In cold expression, oil glands are ruptured as the peels are exposed to high mechanical pressure.

The oil has a clear to greenish color (white variety) or a pale yellow to reddish-orange color (pink variety).

Grapefruit oil has a sweet, tart citrus scent that is popular for use in aromatherapy and in natural beauty and body care products.

Used in aromatherapy, Grapefruit Essential Oil benefits include enhancing a sense of energy, helping to manage stressful and anxious feelings, and helping to manage feelings of discomfort experienced from stiffness and aches.

Used in natural cosmetic products, Grapefruit Essential Oil is reputed to help maintain smooth looking skin, to help reduce the appearance of cellulite, and to help balance oily skin and hair.

Grapefruit oil is commonly used as a top or middle note in perfumery and blends well with other citrus and spice oils, as well as basil, peppermint, cedarwood, lavender, ylang-ylang, rosemary, cypress, frankincense, and geranium oils.
