YOU NEED:

Grapefruit Essential Oil

Pink Grapefruit is one of our favourite citrus oils, because it’s bright and refreshing without being too sweet. It blends beautifully with more woodsy scents, like Spruce or Cedarwood and, best of all, it has a place in your skincare routine.

Grapefruit has balancing and astringent properties that are super gentle, so we love mixing it in with our current face products. Something as simple as adding a few drops to your moisturizer can boost your morning routine. Beyond your beauty bag or bathroom counter, Grapefruit also works wonders in the kitchen.
