Review: La Roche-Posay UVIDEA XL SPF 50 PA+++ BB cream

I don't know about you guys, but my beauty stuffs seem to run out all at the same time.
I finished a lot of BB cream recently which is almost never happened before.
Today I've gone through my last drop of  La Roche-Posay UVIDEA XL SPF 50 PA+++ BB cream.
So here's the review...

What it is: 
Prevents hyperpigmentation and aging induced by UV. Contains La Roche-Posay thermal spring water, with soothing and anti-oxidant properties.

Results: Skin is hydrated, comfortable and protected from UV-induced brown spots, fine lines and darkening. Immediately, blemishes visibly fade out, complexion is long-lastingly unified for a fairer, healthier and more radiant skin. 

Use this all-year round. Apply every morning at the end of the skincare routine

My experiance: 
It seem like the perfect BB cream for me at first. Since SPF is what really matter for me.
I do believe in wearing sunscreen everyday. And this has done a serious business on SPF by giving a SPF 50 PA+++ for me it the best protection you'll ever give to your face. I never get sunburn with this on.
But the thing with this high SPF is it tend leave white cast when I took photo. And my face seem a little greyish when first apply. I need to set it with powder foundation or setting powder to make the color match me better. 

About texture I've mixed feeling about it. Because I first got it in winter and it work just fine.
But in this hot humid weather it feel greasy on the skin since first apply and after couple hours It melt off my face. which is not cool at all. Bad Bad Bad...
