Grapefruit Essential Oil

Uplifting, refreshing... young at heart!



Grapefruit essential oil has a lovely light, uplifting scent. Its bright sweetness is a great pick-me-up when you're feeling tired and down.


Scientists studying grapefruit's effect on the senses found that people perceived women who were wearing grapefruit essential oil as being 4 to 12 years younger than their actual age. This has got to be the best youth-serum yet!


Pink grapefruit oil is credited with being an excellent weight loss aide. It can help stop cravings and reduce emotional eating. Click here to see more on aromatherapy for weight loss.


Grapefruit is a lovely citrus essential oil, with a light, sweet, happy 'flavor' (do NOT drink it - I mean an olfactory flavor!) that orange and lemon have to a lesser degree.


Grapefruit is terrific for clearing up blocked, oily, acne-prone skin, and it's often added to skincare recipes as a natural toner.


Although there's not much difference between white and pink grapefruit essential oil, more of the (slightly sweeter) pink grapefruit oil is generally produced (mainly due to supply and demand.)
