The Beauty of Cranberries



The Cranberry is a big part of the holiday season. We all have the age old debate of can or whole berry sauce. It's a strongly held conviction for some. Here at Pop Trash Beauty I thought we'd take a look at how beautiful the cranberry truly is. Giving us a flirty flush across our lips. Even better yet nourishing our skin with anti oxidents. Cranberries have numerous health benefits. It seems that latley Ive been encouraging you to smear holiday dinner all over your face. Oh well if the left overs make you pretty why not.

I did try this out . Pull your hair back nice and tight the raw sugar will work its way up to your hair line. I did this before going to bed. I used my night creme. My face felt really soft and reduced redness on my cheeks give it a try. I just loved this video.

The Cranberries
The Cranberries are an Irish rock band formed in Limerick in 1989 under the name The Cranberry Saw Us, later changed by vocalist Dolores O'Riordan. The band currently consists of O'Riordan, guitarist Noel Hogan, bassist Mike Hogan and drummer Fergal Lawler. Although widely associated with alternative rock, the band's sound also incorporates indie pop, post-punk, Irish folk and pop rock elements ( via Wikipedia)

Fun Cranberry Facts
I got thease juicy little tid bits from TeacherVision.com

Americans consume some 400 million pounds of cranberries each year. About 80 million pounds -- or 20 percent -- are gobbled up during Thanksgiving week.


Seven of 10 cranberries sold in the world today come from Ocean Spray, a grower cooperative started in 1930.


If you strung all the cranberries produced in North America last year, they would stretch from Boston to Los Angeles more than 565 times.

Cranberries are sometimes used to flavor wines, but do not ferment as naturally as grapes, making them unsuitable for the traditional winemaking process.


We had allot of fun talking about this on twitter and facebook . Cranberry Sauce whole berry or Can ?

They forgot the cranberry sauce ..
