- In this video we go over how to make a DIY sunscreen base and how to turn your sunscreen base into a home made foundation.
Base ingredients:
3-4 tablespoons of sweet almond oil (or grapeseed oil)
2 tablespoons Shea butter
2 tablespoons beeswax pastilles
1 tablespoons jojoba oil
1 tablespoon of raspberry seed oil
10 drops carrot seed oil
3-4 tablespoons of zinc oxide
Add the following to a small amount of the above base:
1-2 tablespoons titanium dioxide
iron oxide colors for tinting (we reccomend brown, red and yellow depending on skin shade)
Sun smarts: DIY sunscreen products are not spf tested and therefore should not be used as your only form of sun protection. Seeking shade, wearing a hat and avoiding mid day sun are other forms of sun protection.
All ingredients used in this video are available at PickEco Refills in Chilliwack.
Use this as my go to recipe now. Thanks so much for sharing!!
Amazing!!
Can you make more updated and simple version of this? this is so informative I luv ur vids from philippines 😍😍😍
It's difficult to simplify it because it is a lengthy process.
@@salinaderish7132 i see, what can i use aside from shea butter ?
You could try babbasu butter or mango butter. But you might need to increase the beeswax a bit. Do small batches to test it first.

I personally prefer to increase the amount of zinc oxide instead of adding titanium, as zinc is a better sun protector and already provides the white base.
Why add the oils? I find that by including oils, instead of just butters, it separates unless kept in the fridge, which is annoying. Perhaps the beeswax you use prevents that, I don't know I've never tried it, but by omitting the oils all together I don't need to include beeswax.
For mine I just use shea butter, zinc oxide, cocoa powder and rosehip powder (for rosey undertones) or tumeric (for yellow undertones). I would love for you to try out that combination and let me know what you think! ❤️
Isn't the cacao comodogenic? also does the turmeric not stain your skin?
Came out great! Thank you!!! 😍😍😍
Thank you!
Can i add preservative pl plz recommend
Thank you so much! That was awesome and inspiring
Typically mine lasts for a year or so. But I often change the tint when the seasons change because my skin is lighter / darker in the winter / summer.
What is the purpose of titanium dioxide?
The titanium dioxide gives it the white base colour and also adds to the spf protection.
@Salina Derish Can we just go with arrow root powder?
Wow 😍
Won’t beeswax clog your pores ?
Not at all. Beeswax is non-comedogenic. You need to stay away from cocoa butter on the face though, its quite bad for pore clogging.
Wow 👍💞
