Homemade Sunscreen

Step 5 Add dry ingredients

Wearing your gloves and mask, carefully measure zinc oxide or titanium oxide into your blending container (see chart above).

For this recipe, I weighed out .9oz of Micronized TO to make an SPF >20.

Add the wax/oil mixture to the powder.

Blend thoroughly.

Scrape the sides of your mixing bowl and blend some more.

Continue blending until the powder is thoroughly incorporated.

Heh, how were you able to wash all of these things off?! after using bees wax to help with water proofing, I am having a great time trying to wash everything.

if it is heat proof like pyrex just pour boiling water in it a couple times. and it is pretty clean. thats why i have a pyrex measuring cup just for bees wax.
