You can eat them or drink their juice, but it is advisable to dilute the unsweetened juice of cranberry before consuming. Cranberries are the rich source of antioxidants and offer many benefits for your skin, hair and health. You can use cranberries in your DIY recipes or can use cranberry-infused beauty products. Let’s read further to know more.
# Premature agingPremature ageing can be because of many factors. Adding cranberries to your diet or applying topically can prevent premature ageing of your skin and hair. Cranberry is a rich source of antioxidants, which promote the growth of new cells. Apart from this, antioxidants help in eliminating the free radicals from your skin, making it healthy. Using cranberry-infused beauty products can also reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
# Skin toningCranberries carry a lot of enzymes which exfoliate the dead skin cells while adding a subtle glow to your skin. This factor helps in controlling the excess sebum production, hence cranberries are no less than a blessing for oily skinned ladies. Cranberries also offer natural astringent properties and reduce the pores. Vitamins present in cranberries also lighten your skin tone. This, in turn, makes your skin even toned and radiant.
# Toning of lipsCranberries can act as natural lip gloss. They effectively help in treating dry and pigmented lips. If you use cranberries topically, your lips will become depigmented, soft and radiant. You can use cranberry juice, cranberry-infused lip gloss or balm or cranberry paste to see visible results.

When you use cranberry rinse for your hair, it effectively cleanses your scalp and gives all the nutrients to your hair. Cranberries also can be applied topically to the scalp to treat dandruff. You can use cranberry shampoo, too, as they are widely available in the market.
