There are a number of drugstores and beauty stores that showcase the range of choices of products that are known to protect our skin from the harmful rays of the sun.

Considering the Greenhouse effect, exposing ourselves to the sun has become more harmful nowadays and it is our duty to do things that would protect ourselves from the skin-related disease that can be caused by UV rays. Prominent brands are well known for a variety of sunscreen-containing products that extend not only to lotions but also to beauty products.

Even though these companies give much evidence that their products are effective, you might not have known that you can also have sun protection using common products right from your own home. Commercial products should not be the only way to protect yourself from the harmful rays of the sun. Try a homemade sunscreen to protect your skin naturally.

Check your room and look for these ingredients that are surely common. Essential oils, butter, and other natural ingredients can be used as a sunscreen, like the following:
