Mythos

At 📝Symposium in the Park, we will be creating our own sunscreen. The individual ingredients are considered low SPF and generally quoted at these levels:

  • Almond oil: SPF around 5
  • Coconut oil: SPF 4-6
  • Zinc oxide or titanium dioxide: SPF 2-20 depending on how much is used
  • Red raspberry seed oil: SPF 25-50
  • Carrot seed oil: SPF 35-40
  • Shea butter: SPF 4-6

The final version will have a varied sun protective ability depending on the amount of each ingredient used. For a simple version, even just coconut oil and shea butter with some zinc oxide or a little raspberry seed and carrot seed oil will work for moderate exposure.
