DIY Waterproof Sunscreen!

Make a sunscreen this summer that’s good for your skin! (And it’s waterproof!)

What You Need:

• 1/2 cup coconut oil (natural SPF of 10)
• 1/4 cup sweet almond oil
• 1/4 cup beeswax
• 2 Tbsp Shea butter
• 1 tsp Vitamin E
• 2 Tbsp Zinc Oxide powder (natural SPF of 20)
• 25 drops of your favorite fragrance oil. We recommend: Coconut Cream, Gardenia, or Honeysuckle!

Instructions:

1. In a double boiler, combine everything except the zinc powder
2. Warm over medium heat until everything is melted!
3. Pour into a glass jar, add in the zinc
4. Put a tight lid on the jar and shake really well. Avoid breathing in the zinc powder. Be careful, it can be hot. Wrap a towel around the jar to help when you shake it!
5. Pour into desired containers.
6. Allow to cool completely before using! Use when out in the sun for prolonged periods of time, reapply as necessary. This stuff lasts, even in the water!
