I've wondered about creating my own sunscreen that way, but the internet discouraged me. From what I've read, Zinc Oxide for babies isn't a nanoparticle, it doesn't block the sun efficiently. I haven't had the chance to research it further.
- jamal-kumar 4y agoI'm probably not as white as you, and we're all acclimatized to the sun out here enough to know when to avoid it and when to enjoy it - Hard to speak for your skin profile or nanoparticles or whatever but all I know is that what you're talking about is a huge factor in messing the reefs up around here. A huge factor is timing. We call white people who get burned going out at peak sun hours 'camarones' - shrimp, because they go from white to red. Funny. Doesn't matter what your skin is, though, when the sun is literally right above you at noon, get under shade or inside and eat your lunch.
