    Formulating sun screen cream/after sun lotion

    So what I'm gathering is, it shouldn't be made. If that's the case why are there so many DIY for making Sunscreen? Also what about an after sun care lotion made with aloe Vera oil, is that even possible either since sunscreen isnt possible as an DIY?

    Thinking about making shaving soap but have questions
