Review: Amazing Powder!!! Works to eliminate foot odor and other things - My friend told me about purchasing Zinc Oxide for foot odor. It worked!!! I would not believe it if I had not tried it! I treated my tennis shoes that had the smelliest foot odor from using my shoes 6 hrs a day on the court. I treated my feet for four nights and rubbed this powder on my feet before I went to bed. It is like rubbing baby powder all over. I placed my socks on and went to bed. I also treated my shoes with a thick coating under the insert on the inside base of the shoe and then coated the insert both under and over. It looked like major powder in my shoe but after I used them the first tme...the powder did not show anymore. It absorbed in my shoe. This is an antibacterial powder. It works wonders. I would not believe it if I hadn't done it!!! After 4 days not only did my feet not smell anymore...neither did my shoes. Believe me...they were so bad, I had to put them in the garage every night just to help my family not gag ha ha!!! Now I have my shoes in my closet with no smell!!! It is amazing!!! I am not embarraced anymore when I go to peoples homes and have to take off my shoes. I feel confident this will work for you!!!! There are so many other uses for Zinc Oxide but this is one they should actually market for stinky feet!!! It is curable!!!! If not...you may want to see medical help LOL!! Oh I forgot to mention...I have had to wear a knee brace because I tore my mcl and meniscus and the brace was starting to smell so bad no matter how many times I washed it. I thought...hey if it cured my stinky feet, it may work for the brace. So I super coated it with Zinc Oxide and rinsed it off. It has not smelled since either. I just wonder now if I soaked my athletic clothes that after so many uses...just naturally stink....if it would take out that smell too. My next project. There is so much Zinc Oxide that comes in the pouch...it could last for a lot of things and making your own sunblock too :)
Review: Yay for cheap sunscreen! - I bought this powder to make my own sunscreen because store bought natural zinc oxide sunscreen is stupidly expensive. Though I came across other, cheaper 1 lb. bags of zinc oxide in my search, the fact that Better Shea Butter says clearly in the description that their powder is made in the US, non nano, and uncoated, I figured it was worth the extra money for the peace of mind. With most sunscreen recipes calling for only a few tablespoons of zinc oxide for an eight ounce yield, this bag will make about a gallon of sunscreen, if my math is right. Is it right? 1 TBSP = .5 oz, 16 oz in a pound, 2 TBSP per 8 oz of sunscreen, 16 cups in a gallon-yes. AT ANY RATE, it will make a lot. This is the recipe I followed/modified (though, I'm sure a lot of people have already come across it): http://wellnessmama.com/2558/homemade-sunscreen/ I used: ¼ cup grapeseed oil ¼ cup olive oil ¼ cup shea butter 1/8-1/4 cup beeswax (I used leftover bits of old tealights) 3 TBSP zinc oxide (I wanted a higher SPF...though how much higher it is, I have no idea) I followed the instructions about heating and everything came together nicely! It's a pretty thick consistency but it spreads easily, sort of like Vaseline. I will note that I was impatient and made the base before my powder arrived, and mixing it in after the fact yielded a slight lumpiness, but it's not too bad and is my fault completely. I suppose I could have reheated it but eh! Obviously, there's no reason not to just add this powder to a lotion you already have, but I already had all of this stuff on hand and wanted the slight waterproofing effect of the wax. FULL DISCLOSURE: I have not actually tried this sunscreen yet, but there's no way it's any different from other sunscreens, except that it's cheaper and has the ability to make other, lesser people fear your DIY prowess, probably. UPDATE: I went to the beach for two days, slathering my skin with this sunscreen the entire time; it was fairly heavy and sort of streaky, but seeing as I wasn't heading to a SI bikini photo shoot, I didn't really mind. I was out for about three hours the first day and I reapplied once; I got burned. The second day, I was out for four hours and reapplied at least three times, but ended up getting burned worse. It's possible that perhaps the sun was just insanely strong or that the beach was the wrong place to expose my skin for the first time in about a year, or that I didn't dump enough powder into my mixture, but I would just be wary. I've used Badger sunscreen at the beach before without much incident, but that was in September, so who knows! Maybe natural sunscreen just plain isn't as effective as chemical. Don't stray too far from the shade if you go this route!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do I know what the spf is when making suntan lotion?**
A: That depends on how much you add to your lotion. My understanding is that if you want an SPF of 20+, you need to use 25% of the weight of your initial amount of lotion. That is if you use 8 oz of lotion, you would need to add 2 oz of zinc oxide to get an SPF of 20 or so. That is my understanding. I mostly use this product for diaper cream. Oh, also zinc oxide shouldn't be ingested so when working with it, make sure not to inhale it.

**Q: Has the zinc oxide assay tested for heavy metals?**
A: This zinc has been tested and it's USP Pharmaceutical Grade, it is the purest form available.

**Q: Does this come with very specific instructions? And clear safety info? A respirator should be worn when using this.**
A: I have been seeing warnings about working with this in powder form without the proper mask...I too, would like some specific information on how to work with this safely.

**Q: Safe for lips in gloss and balms?**
A: I used it in baby diaper cream, but I think it would work great for sunscreen or balms.   I don't know that I would put it on my lips, but that is your choice.  It is really great product though.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works as intended
*by K***E on February 6, 2026*

I have chemical allergies and my tolerances have been reduced due to long-term mold exposure. I had to do something about sunscreen, so I looked for a DIY recipe. I used this powder as instructed and the recipe worked to reduce sun burning. It does leave a white film, but that's how minerals work, especially for my application. Do not breathe this powder directly. It does go airborne easily. Otherwise, there's no smell, it doesn't irritate my skin and it worked as intended for me.
