What it is
In the register’s words: “Citrus Grandis Peel Oil is the volatile oil obtained from the peel of the Grapefruit, Citrus grandis, Rutaceae.”

Labels often add a second name in brackets, so a label may say Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Peel Oil where the register says CITRUS GRANDIS PEEL OIL. Both are the same ingredient.
What the register lists it for
These are the uses the European Commission’s CosIng register lists for Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Peel Oil in any cosmetic, hair roles first. They say why a maker might add it, not what it does in one formula, and they aren’t a safety rating.
- Fragrance
-
Gives the product its smell or covers an unpleasant one. A label may name each scent ingredient or group them as Fragrance (Parfum).
Register definition: “Imparting an odour or taste. Creating a perceivable pleasant smell and/or masking a bad smell.”
- Perfuming
-
Used as a perfume or scent material. Essential oils and their scent compounds, such as linalool and limonene, carry this role.
Register definition: “Used for perfume and aromatic raw materials.”
- Skin conditioning
-
The register’s broad role for ingredients that keep skin in good condition. On a hair label it often sits beside a hair role, or marks a plant oil or extract.
Register definition: “Maintaining the skin in good condition.”
Where it sits on each label
US labels list ingredients from most to least, except that those at 1% or less may follow in any order. A name near the top is a large part of the formula. A label doesn’t mark where the 1% point falls, so further down, the order says little about how much is in it.
