Grapefruit is one of those foods that people seem to either love or hate.
(Personally, I LOVE it...)
However, even if you don't love eating grapefruit, it's a pretty safe bet that you will still love the smell of the cold-pressed pink grapefruit essential oil that we use in our formulations.
It has the sweet, uplifting citrus aroma of a grapefruit peel, with none of the harsh bitterness you may experience when eating the fruit.
When used for aromatherapy purposes, grapefruit is said to be an uplifting oil, and is often inhaled to ease depression and anxiety. The scent have even been said to induce states of euphoria and elation!
(Um... yes please!)
It's also a very energizing oil, perfect for inhaling when you need to be focused and productive at work.
(Maybe try it before/after an intense workout class?!)
The benefits of grapefruit essential oil can also be enjoyed in our Pink Mafia fragrance - the grapefruit is what gives it that super-sweet and zingy-pink top note...
In skincare, grapefruit oil is said to stimulate circulation, rid the body of excess water, flush toxins, reduce cellulite, and help tone and tighten skin.
I think grapefruit is such a lovely, happy scent, and I'm working on a few more fragrances to utilize the sweet, uplifting benefits of this essential oil as we speak!

I had given up on powders, thinking I was forever doomed to an unavoidable mid-day forehead shine. I decided to try this powder on a whim, and it is absolutely the best powder I have ever used in my life. I am forever changed.
I just got the mother of pearl and Ruby shimmer balms in a tube and I LOVE them! The colors are so so pretty on and what’s even more, they feel amazing. So soft and nourishing. I don’t think I’ve ever had a lipstick that feels nourishing too. Pretty amazing! Love love love 💓
