DIY Sunscreen - EASY Homemade NATURAL Sunscreen Recipe

This sunscreen recipe has worked for me for years and its really quick to make up.
Being a Gardener, professionally and leisurely I spend a lot of time outside, I have been using variations of this homemade suncream for at least 4 years now with what I believe to be great success!

I do practice other good habits to protect myself of course as well, like wearing a hat or trying to avoid being in the direct sun for too long when it is at its peak and I ALWAYS apply a good layer of moisturiser to exposed areas at the end of the day to rehydrate and feed my skin.

I know some folk will worry about the proven protection factor and feel that using store bought cream is best and thats fine - for me personally, I'd rather know exactly what it is that I am applying to my skin, particularly when it comes to sensitive and regularly exposed areas like my face.

Just looking at the list of unknown ingredients in many of our bath and beauty products, suncream in particular makes me feel a little uneasy applying all these unknown substances and synthetic chemicals to my skin, so a few years ago I had a good look into it, and created my own Natural DIY Sunscreen Recipe.

There are many carrier and essential oils to choice from that offer so much goodness and nourishment to our skin and that may well have some sun protection factors, my suggestions below are what i've experimented with and researched. I always buy Certified Organic, cold pressed oils and food grade where possible to support best practices and highest quality and I use Non-Nano Zinc Oxide.

We are Dan & Laurie and our land is called Freedom Forest - Its 3 acres in the South of England where we are creating an edible oasis and trying to provide as much for ourselves, from our land as possible, where we are completely off grid.
Our food growing journey began together in 2017 when we created our first No dig lasagne bed. Every year we grow more and more and now we are currently around 60-80% self sufficient in our food needs.
Our style and methods are inspired by permaculture and we try to be thoughtful about how and what we do, to be as gentle on the planet as possible.
