What is Grapefruit Oil?

Grapefruit Essential Oil is cold-pressed from grapefruit rinds. It’s zesty and fun, without being overly sweet—meaning it can be seamlessly incorporated into so many different DIY products and self-care routines.

How to use Grapefruit Oil

You can use Grapefruit Essential Oil in a variety of ways: from mixing it into your existing body moisturizer for an antioxidant boost, to putting it in your diffuser for a tangy morning aroma.

Grapefruit Oil recipes

Grapefruit is gently astringent, so it’s good for cleaning products and skincare products alike. Here are some recipes to get you started.

Grapefruit Oil diffuser blends

Diffuse Grapefruit on its own for something simple, or mix it with other essential oils and essential oil blends for a more complex aroma.
