THANKYOU FARMER Sun Project Relief Sun Cream lotion characteristics at a glance:
- Exhibits desiccation after a bit of time. So reapply often!
- Viscosity is very Medium-low.
Prepared slide BEFORE testing
The THANKYOU FARMER Sun Project Relief Sun Cream exhibited a bit of thinning in the center or the sample, but nothing too terrible for a chemical formulation (chemical sunscreen results do not typically suffer as badly from a thinner layer compared to mineral based sunscreen).
Prepared slide AFTER testing
After the 2 hour test, the sample exhibited quite a bit of desiccation.
