Natural Sunscreen
You'll definitely want to have this one on hand for summer!
It's good for a year!
Ingredients
-
1/4 cup organic coconut oil
-
1/4 cup shea butter
-
1 tsp. carrot seed oil
-
2 tbsp. non- nano zinc oxide
-
5 drops dōTERRA Sandalwood or Lemongrass
-
5 drops dōTERRA Lavender
-
3 drops dōTERRA Geranium + Peppermint
Instructions
Melt the coconut oil and shea butter in a heat safe bowl over medium low heat in a pot with a little bit of water. Once melted add carrot seed oil and zinc oxide, combine. Take off the heat and let cool for a few minutes before adding oils. (dōTERRA Lemongrass is a beautiful option too!)
Pour into little glass jars and store in the fridge till it's cool. Then it's good to use!
Notes
Be patient and let it melt because we want to preserve the beneficial, healing enzymes in these ingredients. So we have to melt them SLOWLY over a low heat so we don't harm them 🙂
*TIP*: Keep out of the sun or a warm car, it will melt! Place in the fridge to bring it back to solid form.
