Juniper berries’ fresh pine-like flavour is widely used as a culinary spice and drinks flavouring. The evergreen berries have anti-microbial properties that help to cleanse, balance and purify the skin and have long been used in folk medicine as an antiseptic. Juniper berries also contain vitamin C and sugar-like components that contribute towards its antioxidant properties, helping to protect the skin against harmful free radicals and encouraging a healthy complexion.

Studies have shown that juniper can help to improve the appearance of youthful, firm skin by helping to maintain skin elasticity.
