Have any of you ever made your own sunscreen? If so can you share your experience or formula? This was my 1st go at it and I used…
- Grass fed & finished Beef tallow
- organic zinc oxide
- organic coconut butter
- virgin coconut oil
- organic rosemary essential oil
I don’t really have measurements because I just read many DIY articles and then went with what ever I had available. But I did find this for SPF strength
1–5% zinc oxide: SPF 2–5
5–10% zinc oxide: SPF 6–11
10–15% zinc oxide: SPF 12–19
15–20% zinc oxide: SPF 20+
20–25% zinc oxide: SPF 30–35
