Natural Sunscreen
I can't say enough about this all natural sunscreen. With Zinc Oxide as the "added" bonus, it has countless amazing qualities. Boasting an SPF 50, our aim was to make a lotion that doesn't leave a white residue - like our other lotions, we incorporated aloe vera gel and fresh goat milk for added skin benefits. And, it's scent-free!
- Special Note!! This product is made with coconut oil and will melt when it gets warm. It is not ruined and will firm up, but it will be best if stored in a cooler when you are out in the sun!!!
Product Highlights
- Broad-Spectrum Sun Protection: Zinc oxide is a mineral sunscreen agent that provides broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB rays. It sits on the skin's surface and reflects harmful rays, reducing the risk of sunburn and long-term skin damage. Our sunscreen is about 50 SPF.
- Moisturizing and Nourishing: Goat milk is rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins, which provide deep hydration and nourishment. This helps keep your skin supple and moisturized, counteracting potential drying effects of sun exposure.
- Soothing and Calming: Aloe vera is well-known for its soothing properties, making it ideal for calming sun-exposed skin and reducing inflammation. It also helps in repairing and healing skin after sun exposure.
- Extra Benefits: Our sunscreen helps sooth rashes, such as poison ivy, as well as bug bites.
- Natural Ingredients: This combination highlights the use of natural ingredients, minimizing the risk of irritation or allergic reactions that can sometimes be caused by synthetic sunscreen ingredients.
- Suitable for Sensitive Skin: The gentle and soothing nature of goat milk and aloe vera, combined with the physical barrier protection of zinc oxide, makes this an ideal sunscreen alternative for those with sensitive or reactive skin.
- Environmental Concerns: Zinc oxide is considered a reef-safe sunscreen ingredient, meaning it is less likely to harm marine ecosystems compared to some chemical sunscreens.

Sunscreen Safety and Zinc Oxide
Let’s face it, sunscreen seems to be an important part of summertime life! Or maybe I should say life in the sun! Recommended use has changed from “when needed” to everyday. Since our skin absorbs what we put on it, the chemical ingredients that are used in most commercial sunscreens (and skincare) get absorbed into our body and are causing health issues, including cancer and hormone imbalance!
Here is a list of what they are finding to be causing most of the problems.
- Oxybenzone
- Avobenzone
- Homosalate
- Octinoxate
- Octocrylene
- Octisalate
Not only are these causing problems in humans, but also found to be harmful to the marine life in lakes and oceans!
Now the good news! Zinc oxide is completely natural and safe for all! It works by reflecting the sun’s rays and is not absorbed into the skin. It also gives a broader spectrum of protection than the chemicals.
This is what we use in our sunscreen! The SPF is a minimum of 50 and it also contains aloe vera gel which along with the goat milk, adds extra healing and soothing to keep your skin soft, supple rather than dry and tight.
If you have a sunburn, this will protect your skin from getting worse while helping to heal the burned area.
Zinc is also fantastic for rashes (including poison ivy and diaper rash), eczema and blemishes!
