Traditionally
served in the form of sauce with roast turkey at Christmas and Thanksgiving
dinners, cranberries are an excellent source of essential vitamins and
minerals. These brightly red and tasty rounded berries have always been known
to provide unique benefits to our health. In fact, it has been shown that one
glass of cranberry juice contains the total amount of vitamin C needed in a
day. For this reason, cranberries are considered within the group of uniquely
marketable and nutritious super fruits.
Cranberries
are mainly produced in the United States and Canada. They grow low to the
ground and are often found in wet, marshy areas called bogs. When they become
ripe, clusters of the berries can be picked off of the vine and used in many
food and personal care formulations. Cranberry extracts are unique sources of
potent antioxidants including vitamin C. This property allows formulators to
capitalize on its strong protective and rejuvenating capabilities what makes
them perfectly suitable for incorporation in a wide range of cosmetic
applications designed to help achieve young and revitalized looking skin.
Cranberries
are also rich in numerous vitamins, especially from the B group, as well as
minerals including iron, magnesium, copper and zinc. All of these nutrients
play essential roles in cellular metabolism. For this reason, by priming the
skin and hair with these distinct nutrients we can help promote optimal
cellular functions for enhanced protein synthesis and proper hydration.
Organic Cranberry SNO consists of organic
cranberries extracted in sunflower oil. This process provides a product that
can be easily incorporated into anhydrous applications including lip products,
serums and numerous emulsions. By utilizing organic cranberries, we were able
to create a product that coincides with today’s increasing demand for organic
and natural cosmetics while capitalizing on the marketability of super fruits and
the numerous health benefits associated with them.
