What Is Cranberry Fruit Extract?
Cranberry fruit extract is derived from Vaccinium macrocarpon, known for its high antioxidant content. Cranberries contain proanthocyanidins with unique properties not found in other berries.
The fruit also contains a rare balance of omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fatty acids. This unique profile makes it exceptionally nourishing for skin.
Cranberry extract provides comprehensive antioxidant protection while supporting barrier function.
