By the following recipe I will teach you to prepare a fantastic sunscreen totally homemade, of excellent quality and very effective, with a sun protection factor of twenty.
Ingredients
- Half a cup of olive oil
- A quarter cup of coconut oil
- A quarter cup of beeswax
- Two tablespoons of zinc oxide.
It must be taken into account that each spoonful provides a sun protection factor of ten; if you want to increase this factor you should only increase another couple of tablespoons.
- A few drops of essential oil of the aroma that you like the most.
Preparation
In a glass container mix all the oils with the wax and the essential oil that you chose to aromatize, you put them to heat in the water bath so that they melt. Then you must mix them until they are integrated. When all the ingredients are perfectly melted, you can add the zinc oxide and continue stirring, taking special care to avoid inhaling the zinc oxide.
When the mixture is viscous, but not very thick, remove it from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes and then pack it in a jar (preferably glass).
You can leave it at rest for at least a day before using it. This homemade sunscreen we have just recommended is very easy to prepare and the ingredients that are going to be used are very simple and easy to get. In this simple way you can enjoy an excellent and effective sun protection without any risk of contamination with toxic products, and you can also receive a little sun to stimulate the production of vitamin D with the tranquility of being well protected.
