✨✨💯
As a #testpilot, I got the chance to test this SPF. To really give it a chance, I replaced my usual SPF with this one. It gives a glowing result and leaves the skin with a lovely radiance. The texture reminds me a bit of La Roche-Posay; you need to massage the product thoroughly into the face. The scent can be a bit unpleasant at first for sensitive people, but it fades after a while. For me, it hasn't been a problem. A super good SPF💓 👍🏽 ✅ The pump dispenses the right amount. ✅Glow/radiance ✅Long-lasting wear without a heavy feeling on the skin 👎🏽 ☑️Scent (for sensitive people) ☑️Price #lykotestpilot #faceformula #estellethild #lykoreview #waterclouds - Most helpful negativeThe user's roll: Lyko Creator.

✨ Face Formula Nova Cream ✨
Received this product as #lykotestpilot in exchange for an honest review, as a reference I have sensitive combination skin. 📦 First impression Simple pump that neither drips nor splatters and dispenses a good amount of product. The texture is thicker and the scent is the typical sunscreen smell. 💄 Usage I always use plenty of SPF on my face, so it was one pump per area on the face and décolleté. Applied after cleansing and serum and possibly moisturizer/milk toner 20 minutes before sun exposure. However, I skipped the moisturizer because this cream already feels very thick and heavy as it is. 👍 Pros 💚 Long-lasting 💚 Super good application pump 💚 Very moisturizing and gives a nice glow for those who prefer it 👎 Cons ❤️🩹 Pills during application ❤️🩹 Feels heavy and oily on the face ❤️🩹 Only SPF 30, prefer SPF 50 ❤️🩹 High price 💭 Conclusion Unfortunately, this was not a hit for me, I have never before experienced a product pilling but now I understand what many mean. Tried all possible ways and managed it after many attempts without the cream rolling, but is it worth all the frustration in the morning to only have SPF 30 and not get the result you prefer? Nah, not really. Probably won’t buy again, but I’m incredibly grateful I got the chance to test this – thanks best FACE FORMULA (fd. Elixir Cosmeceuticals) and LYKO 💗 To avoid wasting the product unnecessarily, it will be used on the body instead! #lykotestpilot #faceformula #hudvård #skincare #känslighy #sensitiveskin #spf30 #lykotips #lykocreator #lykomission #lykoreview209 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Not for oily skin
I have had the honor of testing this along with 2 other products from face formula for a couple of weeks as #lykotestpilot. I tested this every day for 2 weeks. I have oily skin with a lot of redness and easily get pimples if I use the wrong products, which was clearly noticeable here🥲. It has a thick consistency and doesn’t really absorb into the skin the way I want😅. Unfortunately, it has been too heavy for my skin and caused me extra pimples. However, it sits nicely under makeup🫶. Positive: ✅️Nice under makeup✨️ ✅️ SPF 30😍 ✅️Good dosing in the pump🥰 Negative: ❌️Too heavy, which clogs my pores😬 ❌️Expensive💸 ❌️Prefer to use SPF 50✨️ In summary, it works okay but is not for oily sensitive skin🫶 #lykoreview #influtester #lykotestpilot #lykocreator #faceformula - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Sunscreen ☀️
I had the honor of trying Nova Cream from Face Formula. My first impression is that it is very sleek. The gray and orange packaging gives a modern and clinical feel, and the bottle with its smooth pump feels extremely hygienic and easy to use. Already at first glance, you expect a really high-quality product. The product has a light consistency, but unfortunately, the experience was not entirely problem-free 🥲 When I applied it, I noticed that it tends to ball up on the skin (pilling), which makes it difficult to get an even application (especially if you want to wear makeup on top). Also, it only has SPF 30, while I personally always prefer SPF 50 on my face to get maximum and as safe sun protection as possible during the day. I have sensitive skin that easily breaks out or gets clogged when I use the wrong sunscreens. At the same time, I have high demands on my sunscreens because I want high protection (preferably SPF 50) and a formula that lays seamlessly on the skin without rolling or pilling when you apply it. Ingredient-wise, it does its job moisturizing and protecting the skin against both sun, blue light, and infrared radiation without causing new breakouts. However, the pilling effect during application and the fact that it only has SPF 30 lowers the overall rating for me, as I don’t quite get the finish or the high protection I prefer in my daily routine. But I still like it, as I said, so I will use it up 😊 #lykoreview #lykoinflutester #faceformula41 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Nice SPF☺️
As a #testpilot for #faceformula, I got to try Nova Cream SPF 30, and it was fun to try yet another sunscreen from Face Formula! 💛 I would say this one was pretty okay for me. It has a creamy and pleasant feel on the skin and provides good sun protection without feeling too heavy. ☀️🧴 One thing I really noticed is the scent. It is quite clearly perfumed and has a fresh, somewhat classic sunscreen smell 🌸 Personally, I would have preferred it to be a bit milder, but the scent disappears after a while on the skin. Ingredient-wise, it contains hyaluronic acid, which helps to hydrate the skin, and vitamin E, which has antioxidant properties ✨ I therefore think it’s nice that it doesn’t just focus on SPF but also contains ingredients that care for the skin. Overall, it’s pretty okay as an everyday SPF. It feels pleasant, moisturizing, and definitely does its job! 😊 #testpilot #faceformula #lykocreator #lykomission #lykoreview #spf FACE FORMULA (fd.

Nova Cream SPF30+
I have been so lucky to test some products from Face Formula as a Lyko Testpilot! Nova Cream is described as a lightweight sunscreen with SPF30+ that protects against UVA, UVB, infrared, and blue light, while also providing moisture and strengthening the skin's natural defense. The packaging itself is nice – it comes in a golden brown pump bottle with orange details and looks stylish on its own. It’s probably easy to bring along when traveling and in your bag because of the cap, which is great! Relatively little product comes out with one pump, so to cover the entire face you should use a couple of pumps. The cream itself is white, soft, and pleasant on the skin, easy to spread, and gives a slightly shiny/shimmery result. I have tried it every morning for a little over two weeks now, but unfortunately, I’m not quite sure about the product. I find it difficult to know how much sunscreen to use. I’m used to needing quite a bit of sunscreen for good protection, and it also says on the product page that you should use a generous amount – yet only a little comes out with each pump, and if you use more than a couple of pumps, your face just turns white. On me, it also pills a lot throughout the day, no matter what I try to combine it with in terms of skincare and makeup. It pills the most on my chest/decolletage where I have the least skincare and no makeup. I’ve also used it some days without any makeup at all, but it’s almost like it pills more and more each time I use it, and today I actually had to wash it off because it was so annoying. I also experience that the shimmering effect of the cream sometimes feels like the skin is just oily – and that’s not so nice when you have combination skin… I also think the SPF is too low. I use SPF 50 on my face every day all year round because I use active ingredients in my skincare routine, so it feels very wrong to use only factor 30 these weeks. I haven’t noticed anything negative on my skin, but sun damage and signs of aging are things that come gradually. Would I buy the product again? No. It pills, it has too low SPF, and my skin looks shiny and white on some days. So no, I wouldn’t spend my money on this, at least not as long as there are fantastic sunscreens with higher SPF that don’t have these issues. Who could it suit? I imagine this sunscreen could suit those who use little skincare regularly and are looking for a simple product that can give a bit of a "glow" while providing sun protection. Personally, I think it’s a high price for a product that doesn’t quite deliver. Thanks for letting me test, even though this wasn’t a hit for me! 💕✨ Positives: 🌸 nice packaging with pump function and cap 🌸 lovely, soft texture 🌸 gives a bit of glow (if you want it) 🌸 SPF 30, protects against UVA, UVB, infrared, and blue light Negatives: 🌵 pills/rolls on the skin 🌵 high price 🌵 too low SPF for me (I use SPF50 even though I live far north) 🌵 makes skin oily and white on some days #faceformula #lykotestpilot105 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Pretty good, but not a favorite
I have tested Nova Cream SPF 30, and after trying it, I’m left with a somewhat mixed impression. The first impression was positive. I like the texture, and it’s easy to spread on the skin. It has a mild, typical sunscreen scent, which I actually find quite okay. The skin also feels soft and well moisturized after application. At the same time, I think it can feel a bit greasy and heavy on the skin. It absorbs eventually, but I find it takes some time before it feels properly dry. For me, it’s therefore not the most comfortable sunscreen for everyday use, especially if I have several skincare products underneath. I think it works fine under makeup, but it depends a bit on how much you use and how long you let it absorb first. I experienced that the skin could feel a bit sticky, and I actually prefer a sunscreen that feels lighter and more “invisible” on the skin. A big plus is that it’s water-resistant and has SPF 30, so I definitely think it’s suitable for days when you’ll be outside a lot or at the beach. ☀️ It also provides good moisture, so you don’t necessarily need much else underneath. All in all, it’s a pretty good sunscreen that offers good protection, but it didn’t quite become a favorite for me. I wish it felt a bit lighter on the skin. #lykotestpilot #faceformula72 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The post was made 1 monthRating: 4 out of 5
Good sunscreen☀️
I have been so lucky to get to test Face formula as #lykotestpilot my mom and I have tested these products for 2 weeks now🥰 Mom says; "It was a practical and nice sunscreen. It didn’t feel unnecessarily heavy on the skin. A good sunscreen with SPF 30+. It comes in a practical pump bottle that makes it easy to dose. The consistency is light and pleasant, and the sunscreen is easy to spread on the skin. A big plus is that it has no noticeable scent. Absorbs nicely and feels comfortable on the skin. A simple and practical sunscreen for everyday use." I agree with a lot of that. It’s a good sunscreen. It spreads easily on the skin and doesn’t feel too greasy. I think it stays nicely and long on the skin, and I haven’t noticed it flaking off during the day, as I’ve seen others say it can do☺️ Nova Cream leaves the skin soft and comfortable. It suited my sensitive and acne-prone skin well. It smells like typical sunscreen, but thankfully not too strong! The only downside to this sunscreen is that it’s quite pricey. I also think it’s a shame that it’s SPF 30+ and not SPF 50+, which I usually use😅 but probably nice to use now towards autumn☀️ Not sure if I’ll buy it again because of the high price, but definitely a good sunscreen from a quality brand! #lykotestpilot #lykocreator #faceformula #lykocreator #skincare #spf #lykoreview47 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Finally an SPF I like ☀️
I'm quite picky with SPF, and this one has made a good impression on me. Nova Cream SPF 30 has a pleasant cream texture and feels more like a regular face cream than a typical sunscreen. I especially like that the skin feels soft and hydrated afterwards, while the cream doesn't feel unnecessarily heavy. 😊 It fits nicely into the morning routine and also works well under makeup. ☀️ #lykotestpilot #faceformula67 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Not for me
Could have been a great finish to the daytime skincare routine, but unfortunately I probably won’t continue using this 🥺 It feels quite greasy and smells like typical sunscreen. The biggest letdown was that it clumped during and after application, like it doesn’t absorb properly into the skin and rolls/peels off. I ended up removing it again before applying makeup so the makeup would sit nicely. For the price, I expected much more. Besides that, it’s at least a plus that it has good sun protection, and probably nice to use at the beach since it’s waterproof, and you usually don’t use many other products under or over the cream 🏖️🤍 #lykotestpilot #faceformula71 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Unfortunately not a sunscreen for me
I was looking forward to testing this, especially because I like sunscreens that work well under makeup. My first impression of the cream itself was also quite good. It has a medium thick consistency, is easy to spread on the hand (where I tested first), and has a very mild scent, which I really like. Unfortunately, it didn’t work so well on my skin. I am 41 years old and have sensitive skin with rosacea. I found that the cream needed quite a long time to be worked in to avoid white cast, and it took a long time to absorb properly. I used two finger lengths as you should with sunscreen. For me, the result was not matte either. The skin felt for a long time as if it had a thin, slightly oily layer, and the product transferred to my fingers when I touched my skin. I also experienced pilling, even on my chest, where I only had Face Formula Blue serum underneath. I also tested with a smaller amount of Nova cream and then it absorbed faster, but the greasy feeling was still there. I tried both with serum and without anything else after cleansing, but the experience was the same. I also didn’t quite get along with the packaging. I had to pump many times to get enough product out. Unfortunately, the packaging felt a bit cheap, and mine didn’t seem to work quite right either. Towards the end of testing, I noticed many small, colorless bumps on my forehead. I can’t be sure if it was caused by the Nova cream, but since this is not normal for my skin, I chose to stop testing. I liked the consistency and the mild scent, but unfortunately there were too many things that didn’t work for me for this to get a permanent place on my bathroom shelf. So would I buy this myself? No, unfortunately 💛 #lykotestpilot #faceformula36 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The comment was made 1 monthOh wow, that doesn't sound great. But good review 🤎

Hard to get right
I received this product to test as #testpilot. I've been using it frequently for a while now. It smells nice to me, not a strong scent. But it crumbles on the face and makes everything peel off. The skincare underneath, but also the makeup peels off. If I use a cream under the SPF, it becomes too greasy and oily on me during the day. If I don't use any day cream, it's not sufficient as a moisturizer on its own. As soon as I have this on my face and touch the skin, it peels off. Hard to get makeup to look nice on top of it unfortunately. So I prefer to use this alone. 😓47 views
