The grapefruit, rarely called Paradise apple or Citrus paradisi, is the fruit of the grapefruit tree, a citrus plant, a sub-tropical tree in the family Rutaceae. Its scent is predominantly like orange.

The fresh scent immediately provides an intense feeling of happiness. It has a fresh, lively, fruity aroma. Its androgynous fragrance delights women and men alike. In addition, grapefruit oil is valued for promoting circulation, purifying the body, and stimulating metabolism.

Like other citrus plants, the fruit is rich in citric acid (ordinary AHA), which eliminates dull and dead cells from the skin's surface and enhances keratinocyte migration and renewal. Moreover, Citrus Paradisi Fruit Extract contains polyphenols, which reduce UV-induced damage and protect cell membranes from oxidation, leaving a noticeable antioxidant effect.

Citrus Paradisi Fruit Extract also comprises a remarkable amount of vitamin C, which stimulates collagen production, protects from free radicals and fights against hyperpigmentation by inhibiting melanin synthesis. Paradise apple extract is a natural and safe ingredient made to preserve the skin's original beauty.
