Grapefruit Seed Carrier Oil – Lightweight Hydration for Skincare, Haircare & Formulations

23rd Aug 2025

At Afro Cosmetics, we proudly provide 100% pure, cold-pressed Grapefruit Seed Oil, a versatile carrier oil ideal for skincare, haircare, massage, and cosmetic formulations. Extracted from the seeds of the Citrus paradisi fruit, this oil is lightweight, fast-absorbing, and perfect for creating smooth, non-greasy blends.

Why Choose Grapefruit Seed Oil?

Unlike heavier oils, Grapefruit Seed Oil absorbs quickly, leaving skin soft and hydrated without clogging pores. It is rich in natural antioxidants and has gentle astringent qualities, making it especially useful in formulations for oily or combination skin. Its mild, fruity scent adds a subtle freshness without overpowering other ingredients.
