Bright, Astringent, and Detoxifying: Grapefruit Peel Oil in Skincare

Citrus Paradisi Peel Oil is a citrus essential oil extracted from the peel of the grapefruit fruit. With a crisp, tangy aroma and a host of skin-enhancing benefits, it’s a popular ingredient in clarifying, toning, and energizing skincare products.

This oil contains high levels of limonene and vitamin C, which help stimulate circulation, brighten the complexion, and provide antioxidant protection. It’s also mildly astringent—tightening pores and reducing shine—making it great for oily, combination, or blemish-prone skin.

Its antimicrobial properties help keep breakouts at bay, while its invigorating scent supports a feeling of freshness and vitality during your skincare ritual.

Like all citrus oils, Grapefruit Peel Oil should be used carefully in sun-exposed products, ideally stabilized or used in nighttime formulas. When properly formulated, it leaves skin feeling toned, refreshed, and beautifully luminous.
