Be it a dreary winter morning or a stifling hot summer afternoon, I’m a fanatic for citrus all year long. The bright fresh smell of citrus fruits is nothing but REFRESHING.

It’s impossible to resist the liveliness they add to my day. It all started with a bottle of lemon essential oil, that led me to try all the varieties of lemon, creating diffuser charts for each.

A year after that I added lime diffuser blends and tangerine a few months later. This year I’m slicing open a new fruit!

It’s a natural cross of pomelo and sweet orange, that spread to America from Jamaica. Can you guess what it is? 

Prized for generations, grapefruit is a zestful powerhouse of wellness, flavor, and scent!  

Cold pressed from the rind of the fruit, grapefruit essential oil has a fresh, zesty, uplifting aroma that refreshes the air when diffused. Young Living points out that grapefruit essential oil neutralizes unwanted odors and cleanses the air when diffused. – That’s why it makes a great addition to DIY household cleaning solutions.

Truly, it’s packed with a citrus flair like no other! Maybe it’s the grapefruit’s large size or the unique shade of pink hidden inside? No matter, grapefruit is as visually appealing as it is fragrantly refreshing! 

So, boost your well-being and liven up your day with all this juicy fruit has to offer! Start with my tips for diffusing and what goes well with grapefruit. Then grab my ready-to-use grapefruit diffuser blends in fun printable blend charts.

Ways To Diffuse Grapefruit Essential Oil Blends

Choose the perfect place to diffuse grapefruit essential oil blends, such as you’re desktop, living room sofa table, or bathroom vanity. Then give grapefruit a squeeze with these diffuser methods to infuse your home with juicy essential oil blends! 

Ultrasonic Diffuser

These popular devices use water and ultrasonic vibrations to disperse essential oils into the air as a fine mist. They come in all shapes and sizes!

Reed Diffuser

Try this DIY reed diffuser combining essential oils with a carrier oil, such as sweet almond oil, placing reed sticks into the mixture. The reeds absorb the oil and release the scent into the room gradually. 

Terracotta Diffuser Stones

Craft diffuser stones using terracotta clay to absorb essential oils and release their fragrance slowly over time. Check out my tutorial for handmade terracotta diffuser stones!

Essential Oil Tea Light Diffuser

Also known as an essential oil burner, these diffusers come in decorative designs and use a tea light candle (I make my own) as a heat source to gently warm the essential oils and disperse their aroma throughout the room. 

Pick a diffuser method that best fits your needs then let’s start blending!
