I had a 1-day trip, also a chance for me to try this out.

- The sunscreen is sticky and hard to spread when apply, probably because of the oil-controlling thing.
- However, I loved it as it absorbs fast though, excellent for controlling oil throughout the day.
- From 7 AM to 4 PM, the sunscreen still last and very well protecting the face. I didn't have to reapply the sunscreen!
