During summer, I am no stranger to the effects of the sun. I spend a good amount of time outside, either first thing in the morning or after dinner to avoid the hottest peaks, or while playing in some sort of water, whether in a pool or from a hose with my young kids. As a redhead with fair, sensitive skin, I have to be extra careful when out in the sun. It doesn’t take long for me to burn or suffer from heat exhaustion if I don’t properly take care of myself with hydration, skin protection, and knowing when I’ve had enough. Here are a few sunscreen recipes if you’ve been wondering how to make a natural version at home this summer.
