2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil
2 Tablespoons Shea Butter
1/2 teaspoon Sesame Oil
1/2 teaspoon Aloe Vera Gel (not the juice, this is pure gel)
Heat all the above ingredients in a water bath, a bowl inside a pot of simmering water, until melted. This wont take long at all. Once this is melted, remove from heat and stir in:
1 Tablespoon Zinc Oxide powder.
Note:
please cover your face with a mask when you use this as it can be harmful in powder form if inhaled.
Mix thoroughly and pour into a dark container.
This should have a shelf life of about 6 months or so.
The mixture will start to solidify once you take it off the heat and mix in the zinc
I also added several drops of lavender because I don't like the smell of the sesame oil.
