1/4 cup fresh aloe vera gel
1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
2 tablespoons vegetable glycerine
1 tablespoon raspberry seed oil
10 drops lavender essential oil
1 tbsp Rose water
Optional: 2 tablespoons non-nano zinc oxide for added SPF

*Instructions:*

1. Harvest fresh aloe vera gel and soak the leaves to remove aloin.
2. Blend the aloe vera gel until smooth.

*Why Choose Natural Sunscreen?*

Recent studies have shown that certain chemical ingredients in commercial sunscreens can be absorbed into the bloodstream. For instance, the FDA conducted research indicating that chemicals like oxybenzone and avobenzone are absorbed at levels exceeding safety thresholds.
While the health implications are still being studied, many prefer natural alternatives to avoid potential risks.
