Pink Grapefruit is believed 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. Pink Grapefruit has a fresh, tart citrus smell that is very characteristic
of the fruit. White grapefruit is very similar, though pink grapefruit is
sweeter. This oil can be photosensitizing to very sensitive people,
meaning it can amplify the effect of sun exposure, so take care in skin
applications before sun exposure.
