I never really liked the heavy, sticky feel of regular sunscreen, but that completely changed after a friend recommended Mentholatum's SKIN AQUA UV Essence. Its best feature is its incredibly light, hydrating texture. It absorbs quickly after you spread it on and doesn't feel annoyingly sticky at all. The line also includes color-correcting options designed for different skin tones, so you can choose one based on your needs.
Ever since then, whenever I visit a drugstore in Japan, this sunscreen has been on my must-buy list, and I always pick up a few extra tubes to take home. If you dislike sticky sunscreen as much as I do, this is definitely a great choice.
