I’m working hard to complete my in-depth report on sunscreen. Lots of good stuff including recipes and sun care tips. And, it will cost much less than you’d spend on sunscreen this year. So, I won’t be posting much here until I finish, hopefully before the end of this month! There I said it. Now I must deliver.

So glad you are doing this! I recently bought a neutrogena “stick” style of sunblock for a trip, which turned out to be quite convenient – but very expensive, and already half-gone. Will look forward very much to your report – thanks!
can hardly wait!
I have a question:
if i just mix 100 gram of water with 10 gram of Mironised zincoixde and stirr/shake it very good and apply it immediately,
would that be alright?
or what would be the disadvantages of that instead of making/adding it in a lotion?
You could, but ZnO is insoluble in and denser than water so it will settle very quickly. Think sand and water. It would be difficult to get a good, even application. You are better off rubbing lotion/cream first, then using a powder brush to dust ZnO on. Not that I recommend this – you shouldn’t breathe ZnO powder but then again, people unknowingly do since it’s one of the main ingredients in powder makeup, esp. mineral makeup.
Ok, thank you. Great info on your website.
