The present invention relates to cranberry seed oil derivatives derived by
the reaction of polyoxyalkylene glycol compounds and cold pressed
cranberry seed oil. The choice of cold pressed cranberry seed oil as a
raw material in the preparation of the compounds of the present invention
is critical, since it has been found that the cold pressed cranberry seed
oil contains antioxidants, antimicrobial compounds and which when reacted
with a polyoxyalkylene glycol compounds, result in products that deliver
said actives to the skin and hair, resulting in protection of the skin
and hair from environmental factors such as acid rain, ozone attack and
UV degradation.
