Color: Pale Yellow Common Uses: Grapefruit White essential oil is believed by aromatherapists to be a spiritual up-lifter, and to ease muscle fatigue and stiffness. It is also a purifier of congested, oily and acne prone skin. Grapefruit oil is also sometimes added to creams and lotions as a natural toner and in some circles it is believed to promote hair growth though there is not any medical documentation verifying this.

Aromatic Scent: Grapefruit white essential oil has a fresh, light, slightly bitter citrus scent that is very characteristic of the fruit.

History: The differences between the white and pink grapefruit are minor. The difference in cost is simply an example of supply and demand; there is more pink grapefruit produced because it is sweeter than the white variety.
