Mary Tylor Naturals USDA Certified Organic Grapefruit Essential Oil

Essential oils like pink grapefruit are extracted from plants. Various parts of the plant, such as its leaves and fruit, can be pressed or steamed to start this process. Steam pulls the oil out of the plant, and makers of essential oils then run the steam through a series of tubes. Once the steam cools and condenses, the plant oils separate from the water and are collected.

The cold-press extraction method utilizes a machine that pierces the fruit to break its essential oil sacs. The oils are then collected and stored. Then, the fruit is pressed to obtain any remaining oil and the juice of the plant. Other essential oil collection methods include maceration, carbon dioxide extraction and solvent extraction.

Aromatic essential oils can be quite versatile, and they have different applications for use. Fans like to put them in essential oil diffusers, which are easy to use. Fill the diffuser with clean, room-temperature water (there will likely be a fill line), add the oil and turn on the diffuser. You can also use the oil as a perfume; only a little bit is needed, since it is concentrated.

Some people ingest essential oils for their various health benefits. Edible oil can be added to water and drank, or a drop can be placed under the tongue. There are topical uses as well; essential oils can be absorbed directly into the skin. Use them for targeted areas, add them to lotions or use the oils for massage.
