Sun tan is a major problem during summers! Even after applying sunscreen
lotions, your skin gets tanned. A sunscreen basically protects your
skin from ultraviolet rays by shielding a layer on the top of the skin.
If you want to go natural and cover that glowing skin with a sunscreen
lotion, check out the homemade sun block recipes.
7 homemade sunscreen recipes to prevent sun tan:
1. Coconut oil is a natural ingredient to prevent sun tan. You can just
apply coconut oil on the exposed skin 25-30 minutes before going out or
mix it with other ingredients to prepare a sunscreen recipe.
2. Mix coconut oil with shredded cocoa butter. Now add little water and
make your homemade sunscreen lotion. Coconut oil soothes the skin and
keeps it moisturized.
3. Boil water in a pan. Add coconut oil, beeswax and vitamin E capsules.
Let it cool. Store in a bottle and apply before going out. Coconut oil
has an SPF which protects your skin from sun rays.
4. Take1 tbsp emulsifying wax, ½ cup jojoba/lavender oil, 2 tbsp zinc
oxide, 2 tbsp aloe vera gel and ½ cup distilled water. In double boiler,
boil wax and zinc oxide on low flame until wax melts. In another pan,
melt aloe vera gel in water and slowly add in oil. Mix continuously to
let water and oil blend. Now add the zinc and wax into the oil. Store in
a bottle.
5. Mix 15 drops of essential lavender oil, 2 drops of chamomile and 2
drops marjoram. This is one easy homemade sunscreen recipe to prevent
sun tan naturally.
6. Sesame oil and avocado oil also protects the skin from sun tan. Mix
the oils and add little cocoa butter to make a thick sunscreen recipe.

recipe but also keeps your skin moisturized.
