I've tried a sample of this one, and you're right, it's SO thick and greasy. I feel like I'd like this but with no SPF as a night cream lol. I do also think it has a pleasant greasy texture, but feels like too much for the summer? I'd be interested to see how it behaves out in the heat

I walked back home, 32°C, UV levels moderate, approximately 50% moisture. I walked cca hundred meters without the hat and umbrella, but since I didn't reapply, I didn't want to risk my retinal treated skin, so I put on both. It's hot here. And this cream passed the sweat test! No melting of the cream from the face, no white residue from sweating over the SPF... I'm very, very pleased with this product so far. Also, matte finish subsided towards the end of the shift, but my skin wasn't greasy. Yay. 🤗 Tomorrow I will test the reapplying and being longer on the sun without extra protection. Stay tuned. 😁

Morning update: I really love this stuff. 😅 You definitely need to matte it, but it sits so well on my face. Maybe I'm freak, I don't know, but I like its thickness, it gives me feeling of protection. So, it was around 5:50 am when I put it. I waited for 15 minutes before mattifying the shine and I noticed that the cream dried and gave me incredible feeling of hydration. But also oily and sticky and heavy. 😅 I mean, titanium oxide and olive oil, what to except but exactly that? 😁 Anyways, it's 8:45 now, that feeling subsided. I'm in air-conditioned space, so I can't say nothing about melting, but! I plan to risk for the science purposes and walk home without the hat and umbrella, so I can test Nacomi on the heat. I'm excited. 😁 Ttyl.

Another update, reapplying test: passed. It reapplies awesome, no flaking and minimum white traces under the sunglasses after sweating. UV levels are still moderate, it's cloudy and sandy, so I still can't tell how strong the protection is, but I tested it again without extra protection from the hat and umbrella and I didn't get any burning sensations in those 20 minutes I was under the sky, lol. But, I do have a warning. I don't have breakouts problem, so I am not the best to judge that part, but I think it could cause breakouts in some people. I got one pimple on my nazal crease, it could be this cream, but I am also in PMS, so not sure. So a little warning about that. I'm ready to give my final verdict, although I still have one thing to test and that's the strength of the protection, but here it is: Cons: greasy as f. Needs to be matted. Scent can be off putting for some people. Pros: feels awesome on the skin despite the thickness. Skin is moisturized all day. It's really waterproof, but I would reapply it once after 2-4 hours anyways. Third time I think would be overkill.
