DESCRIPTION

Grapefruit Oil, Coldpressed, occurs as a yellow, sometimes red, liquid that often shows a flocculent separation of waxy material. It is the oil obtained by expression from the fresh peel of the grapefruit Citrus paradisi Macfayden (Citrus decumana L.) (Fam. Rutaceae). It is soluble in most fixed oils and in mineral oil, often with opalescence or cloudiness. It is slightly soluble in propylene glycol and insoluble in glycerin. It may contain a suitable antioxidant.
