Claire Organics Grapefruit Essential Oil (10ml)

100% Pure PROPERTIES

Grapefruit essential oil is an orange-tinted, citrus-scented oil frequently used in aromatherapy.

Through a method known as cold-pressing, the oil is extracted from glands located in the peel of the grapefruit.

Grapefruit essential oil can be applied topically, as a compress, in the bath, through direct inhalation, or used with a diffuser. Grapefruit is a universally appealing scent that is versatile and can blend with almost any oil. As with most citrus, it will uplift the mind and freshen the air to everyone's liking. Reach for this oil to lighten up your diffuser blend if it has become too heavy, or floral smelling. Add several drops of grapefruit oil to warm bath water for an uplifting and skin smoothing experience.

SUGGESTED USE:

1. DIFFUSE

Put a diffuser by your bed and diffuse oils while you sleep at night or in the family room while you're reading or winding down in the evening. Throughout the day, diffuse for work or study with oils that improve brain power or energy. This is also a good way to add the scent of essential oil to a room.

2. INHALE

Clear your mind then inhale directly from an open bottle or rub a drop of oil between your palms and breathe in the aroma. Do as needed throughout the day. Several drops of essential oil are placed on a cotton ball or tissue and allowed to evaporate into the air.

3. SKIN APPLICATION

Besides your face and body, the most common places to apply oils are the bottoms of feet, chest, temple, and pulse points. Apply 2 to 3 drops (a little goes a long way) right on the skin, or combine 5 to 10 drops with a Carrier Oil like Jojoba, Avocado, or Rosehips oil.

IMPORTANT: Just because it's from a plant doesn't mean it's safe to rub on your skin, or breathe, or eat, even if it's "pure." Natural substances can be irritating or cause allergic reactions. Like anything else you put on your skin, it's best to test a little bit on a small area and see how your skin responds.

4. BATHS

Add 6-10 drops of essential oil to bath water or use with sea salts or Carrier Oil for a soothing bath and moisturized skin.

5. MASSAGE

When you visit the massage center, it's always a good idea to bring your own favorite oil! Or give yourself a massage at home for a good night's sleep. Make your own massage oil by adding 20-25 drops diluted to 1/2 cup of Carrier Oil. Start by massaging the feet as it allows oils to quickly absorb into the skin.

6. SPRAY

Add 6-10 drops of essential oil to water in a glass spray bottle, shake well before use. Spray into the air to deodorize a room or set a refreshing mood. You might also want to use a solution of water and your favorite essential oil as a yoga mat cleaner. Always shake well before use.
