Plant Guru Zinc Oxide Powder 1 lb – Non-Nano, USP Grade for DIY Skincare

Overview

Plant Guru Zinc Oxide Powder is a clean, pure mineral powder designed for DIY skincare and sun care formulations. This non-nano, uncoated zinc oxide sits on the surface of the skin to reflect UVA and UVB light, helping you create mineral-based products with a lightweight feel and minimal irritant potential. The powder is cosmetic-safe and tested, with no fillers, making it a reliable base for your custom recipes.

Why DIY enthusiasts choose zinc oxide

Because zinc oxide remains on the skin’s surface rather than absorbing, it offers a physical sunscreen option that many crafters value for control over texture and finish. It blends into lotions, creams, balms, soaps, and other personal care formulas with ease, delivering a breathable yet protective layer without relying on absorption.

Ideal uses

Perfect for a wide range of DIY projects, from sun protection formulations to everyday skin-care balms. You can blend zinc oxide into lotions, creams, soaps, deodorants, diaper rash ointments, and acne care products to create mineral-based formulations that feel light and comfortable on the skin.

How to incorporate

To integrate zinc oxide smoothly, whisk or blend into your base at a small-to-moderate percentage, ensuring even dispersion. Use clean utensils and store in a cool, dry place. Always perform a patch test before broader use to assess compatibility with your formula.

Texture, scent, and behavior in formulas

The powder is fine, white, and odorless, with a neutral profile that blends into emulsions and balms. When dispersed properly, it adds mineral coverage without a chalky afterfeel. In soap projects, it can be integrated during the mixing stage for even distribution.

Packaging and quality

Packaged in a factory-sealed zip pouch for freshness and durability. The bulk packaging option is ideal for makers who work on multiple batches or larger projects. The powder is uncoated and USP grade, suitable for cosmetic DIY work.

Storage and care

Keep the pouch tightly sealed in a cool, dry place. Avoid moisture to prevent clumping and preserve purity over time.
