Cranberry Leaf Juice – Benefits, Side Effects & Uses

by ThankMeNow Editors on Sep 10, 2025
Cranberry Leaf Juice (Vaccinium macrocarpon leaf juice) is an antioxidant-rich botanical containing high concentrations of polyphenols, tannins, and flavonoids—often 3–8x more concentrated than the fruit. This composition makes it highly effective for calming redness and irritation (15−25% reduction) and providing soft, daily antioxidant protection against environmental triggers. It delivers lightweight hydration, supports barrier resilience, and promotes a smoother texture, establishing it as an excellent, non-irritating active for sensitive, redness-prone, and reactive skin in toners, essences, and soothing serums.
