According to Wellnessmama.com (a great diy website) if you add a cup of any good quality cream to 2 tablespoons of zinc oxide and mix it up really well, you'll get spf 20. Add more zinc for higher spf, reduce for less. She also cautions that the cream must not contain any citrus oils. And I've heard from others thats true of all sunscreens. The zinc oxide has a USE BY date too, which for mine was about 2 years after I bought it. I am careful to mix the zinc oxide w the cream in the jar I keep the cream in. I read on some comments they had a hard time getting the powder off their bowls, so I just didn't go there.

It is white but goes on clear. If the zinc oxide was not nano, it would appear white on the skin.

Do not see any information on the carton itself that would indicate that it has zinc. However, I am usingthe Ultra Wernets now instead of the Super Wernets. It says you can use it multiple times per day if youneed to so I suspect that means it doesn't have an zinc. I have had real good success with both, butI like the Ultra a more.

No, it doesn't. If you are concerned as to whether it has zinc oxide, you can rest assured it doesn't. The main active ingredient is titanium dioxide.

what is the actual percentage of the hyaluronic acid in the jar of face cream?

At a glance, the ingredients appear to be the same except for one: on the box, the first ingredient listed under "inactive ingredients" is aluminum hydroxide, which appears to be missing from the list here on Amazon. The sunscreens listed are the same: titanium dioxide 3.2% and zinc oxide, 1.8%.

The two tablespoons of zinc oxide per cup of cream will give you an SPF of 20. So one will give an SPF of 10. I got this info from various sunscreen recipe sites. An SPF of 15 to 20 is more than enough. If you usually burn in 15 minutes an SPF 15 will give you 3:45 of exposure (15 SPF * 15 min = 3:45). Anyway, I've learned that any cream with a high SPF is a waste of money because you usually reapply every several hours anyway. Also, the base cream that you add the zinc oxide to might also have an SPF. For example, coconut oil has an SPF of approximately 4. I hope that answers your question.
