Product Application
With its bright, energizing aroma, Grapefruit Essential Oil is a popular choice as a home and personal fragrance. The use of this oil as an air freshener adds a zesty energy to the home and is reputed to improve mood and boost mental energy. Grapefruit oil can be added to a bath or applied directly to the skin for an aromatherapeutic compress or massage provided it is diluted first in a carrier oil. As a guide to dilution, the International Fragrance Association recommends a maximum concentration of 4% of this essential oil in products intended for topical use. Massaging with Grapefruit Essential Oil is reputed to help maintain healthy circulation and to help manage feelings of discomfort from stiffness and muscle fatigue, menstrual cramps, and headaches. Used cosmetically, the addition of Grapefruit oil to creams and lotions is said to help tone the skin and reduce the appearance of cellulite, as well as to help balance oily skin and hair.
In perfumery and aromatherapy, Grapefruit Essential Oil is used as a top or middle note in many citrus fragrances and combines well with a variety of essential oils, including citrus and spice, Basil, Peppermint, Cedarwood, Lavender, Ylang-Ylang, Rosemary, Cypress, Frankincense, and Geranium oils. For an aromatic blend to help improve concentration and mental energy, combine a couple of drops of Grapefruit oil with Rosemary and Ylang-Ylang oils. A few drops of this blend – or simply a few drops of Grapefruit oil – on a cloth or tissue can be sniffed throughout the day for a quick pick-me-up, or you can use an aromatherapy diffuser or vaporizer to infuse a larger space with the scent. For another refreshing diffusion blend to help perk up mental energy, mix 8 drops of Grapefruit Essential Oil with 4 drops each of Bergamot, Ginger, and Clove oils. This blend can be diffused for 30 minutes at a time. In addition to diffusions and inhalations, you can also make a mist spray to help clear the energy in a space. Try a blend with 30 drops each of Grapefruit, Bergamot, Eucalyptus, Lime, and Ginger oils with 25 drops of Rosemary oil in 120 ml of pure water to clarify the mind and enhance feelings of alertness.

You can make a cleansing and refreshing bath oil by blending 3 drops each of Grapefruit and Lemongrass oils with 5 drops of Lavender and 4 drops of Peppermint. Dilute this blend in 5 ml of a carrier oil of your choice before adding it to a warm bath. A few drops of Grapefruit oil can be added to your regular shampoo to further the luxury bathing experience and promote shiny tresses with a bright bounce.
Used in massage, Grapefruit Essential Oil is reputed to support the body’s natural detoxification processes. Adding several drops to a carrier oil is enough to make a pleasantly scented massage blend to refresh the body and encourage healthy digestion and circulation. For a more complex detoxification blend, combine 23 drops each of Grapefruit, Clove Bud, and Bitter Almond oils, with 20 drops each of White Camphor, Eucalyptus Lemon, Patchouli, and Vetiver oils, as well as 25 drops each of Juniper Berry and Eucalyptus oils. Blend well with a carrier oil of your choice and massage all over the body. For best results, do 5 massages each spaced 7 days apart. Wait three months before repeating the cycle.
