Can my Facial oil provide sunscreen protection?

Do some lipid oils provide sunscreen protection? I see a lot of posts about this in “clean beauty” blogs and posts. You should ditch the sunscreens full of “harmful chemicals” and use natural oils or butter like shea or coconut oil instead.

Well, you can.

Just be prepared to look like a wrinkled old prune and possibly cause irreversible skin damage to your cells.
