Applications and Areas of Use in Cosmetics:

Our Cranberry Extract (Concentrate) offers a versatile ingredient for a wide range of cosmetic applications, imparting its valuable properties to various product types:

• Anti-Aging Serums and Creams: The high concentration of antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, helps combat free radical damage, a primary cause of premature aging, thus reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots.
• Brightening and Tone-Evening Products: Vitamin C and other bioactive compounds contribute to a brighter and more even skin tone by inhibiting melanin production and reducing hyperpigmentation.
• Soothing and Anti-Inflammatory Formulations: The extract's natural anti-inflammatory properties can help soothe irritated skin, reduce redness, and alleviate conditions like mild eczema or rosacea.
• Hydrating and Moisturizing Products: Cranberry extract can contribute to skin hydration by strengthening the skin barrier and reducing moisture loss.
• Exfoliating Products (Indirectly): The natural fruit acids present in cranberries can provide a gentle exfoliation effect, promoting cell turnover and smoother skin texture.
• Sun Protection and After-Sun Care: While not a sunscreen itself, the antioxidants in cranberry extract can help protect the skin from UV-induced damage and soothe skin after sun exposure.
• Acne Treatment Products: The antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties may assist in managing acne breakouts and reducing associated redness and swelling.
• Hair Care Products: Antioxidants can protect the scalp and hair follicles from environmental damage, while vitamins can contribute to healthier and shinier hair. It can be incorporated into shampoos, conditioners, and hair masks.
• Body Washes and Scrubs: Adds antioxidant benefits and a refreshing natural scent to cleansing products.
• DIY Cosmetic Formulations: An excellent addition to homemade serums, creams, lotions, and masks for a boost of antioxidants and skin-brightening properties.

Cosmetic Recipe: "Nordic Radiance" Antioxidant Face Serum

Instructions:

1. In a clean beaker, combine the distilled water and glycerin. Stir until the glycerin is fully dissolved.
2. Slowly add the sodium hyaluronate while stirring continuously until it is completely dissolved and forms a gel-like consistency. Allow some time for full hydration.
3. Add the Cranberry Extract (Concentrate) and ferulic acid to the mixture. Stir gently until well incorporated.
4. Add the Vitamin E (tocopherol) and stir again.
5. Finally, add the natural preservative and mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
6. Carefully transfer the serum to a clean, airtight bottle with a dropper or pump.

Application Recommendations:

• Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before applying the serum to the entire face to check for any allergic reactions or sensitivity.
• Apply a few drops of the serum to clean, dry skin in the morning and/or evening before applying moisturizer.
• Gently massage the serum into the skin until fully absorbed.
• Store the serum in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to maintain its potency.
• The recommended usage level of Cranberry Extract (Concentrate) in cosmetic formulations typically ranges from 1% to 10%, depending on the desired effect and the specific product type. Start with a lower concentration and adjust as needed.
• This extract is water-soluble and should be easily incorporated into water-based formulations. Ensure thorough mixing for even distribution.
• Consider the pH of your final formulation, as extreme pH levels may affect the stability of some of the active compounds in the cranberry extract. The optimal pH range for most skincare products is between 4.5 and 6.5.
• For enhanced antioxidant benefits, consider combining cranberry extract with other antioxidant-rich ingredients like Vitamin C, green tea extract, or other berry extracts.
