Are there any natural suncreens out there that can be combined with 100% natural jojoba oil? I need to use a sunscreen in the daytime because i am using Retin-A micro at night. I apply the jojoba oil at night before using Retin-A, but also want to use it in the AM. Right now i am using a mosturizer with sunscreen in the AM.

There are no 'natural' sunscreens that I know of. I do recommend using one that is PABA free though as some persons are sensitive to that particular chemical. If I use a product containing PABA, I will actually get a chemical burn that is much worse than a sunburn. If you are using the jojoba as a moisturizer along with your spf makeup, that is perfectly ok. If you are planing on getting a tan, I would not recommend using jojoba before you apply the sunscreen - just use only the sunscreen when going out in the sun. You can still use the jojoba under your makeup in the sun though.
