DESCRIPTION
The white variety of Grapefruit Essential Oil is cold pressed from the fresh peels of Citrus paradisi, a fruit known for its vibrant aroma and crisp citrus character. This essential oil carries the distinct scent of grapefruit—bright, tangy, and slightly bitter—making it a favorite in both personal care and aromatherapy applications.
The primary component of Grapefruit Essential Oil, Limonene, is a naturally occurring monoterpene found in citrus oils. Limonene contributes to the oil’s refreshing scent and plays a key role in its ability to support a clean and revitalized feel when used in skin and hair formulations. Whether incorporated into facial cleansers, shampoos, or body scrubs, this oil lends a sense of freshness that enhances any formulation.
Grapefruit Essential Oil (White) is a popular choice for those seeking an uplifting sensory experience, whether through diffusion, skincare, or hair care applications.
