Homemade Sunscreen Lotion Bars
 
1/2 cup Shea butter
1/2 cup coconut oil
5 tbsp beeswax
2 tbsp Zinc Oxide
1/2 tsp vitamin E oil
3/4 tsp essential oil (Non- citrus)
　
Combine the Shea butter, coconut oil and beeswax in a glass bowl placed over a hot pot of water or use a double boiler. Heat on low until the ingredients are melted and full mixed together.
Remove from heat and stir in the zinc oxide, the essential oil, and the vitamin E oil.
Pour into silicon molds and place in the fridge to cool for about 30 minutes. Pop out and store in tins or an airtight container. Store at room temperature. 

Be aware these will melt in the hot sun but will become solid again when back indoors.
