Hi everyone! My skin is normal, which means dewy sunscreens make me look too oily and sunscreens for oily skin may be too drying, so I'm trying to find a balance! Any recommendations for that:

▪︎ skin-like finish, not too dewy, not matte
▪︎ chemical sunscreen
▪︎ affordable plz hehe not looking for luxury 

Thank you so much with the help in hunting my next holy grail!

Looking for sunscreen with a skin-like finish 🌟

The sun is out in full glory these days and I've been getting sunburns on my lips on my commute to work 🥲. 

These days I put on the Malibu lip 30SPF but it tastes so gross I have to go to the bathroom and wash it off with soap as soon as I get to the office 🤢. 

Does anyone have recommendations for lip SPF that actually doesn't taste horrible? I've tried Nivea, Labello and Piz Buin without much success...

Looking for lip SPF recommendations that DON'T taste gross!

🟢 I didn't notice any improvement in calming down my redness
🟢 Has a distinct tea tree smell (which I'm okay with but others may not enjoy), however it dissipates quickly after application

💚 It has a really soothing, thick, a little jelly-like texture that spreads nicely and evenly on the skin without being sticky or pilling with other products
💚 Absorbs beautifully and gives my skin a nice velvety feel, feel hydrating too!
💚 While my skin occasionally acts up for a couple days after I use strong exfoliants (and I tend to avoid those), while using this ampoule I didn't get any breakouts following exfoliation
💚 The packaging keeps the ampoule cool and refreshing, and the dropper never makes a mess

This product has perfume quite high in the ingredient list. I can appreciate a subtle fragrance in my products, but this had quite the overwhelming fake watermelon smell. Sensitive skin beware!

This product did something I really enjoy in gel moisturizers, which is adding an emollient. Gel moisturizers feel amazing on the skin, but I personally feel that I need something like the squalene added here to lock the moisture in, or else I have to apply a second moisturizer afterwards.
I would suggest this as suitable for non-sensitive oily skin, or normal skin as a summer moisturizer.

The only bad thing is that this is marketed for dry skin but honestly, people with truly dry skin will probably need something stronger than this, this lotion is quite thin and runny 

This is a really affordable body lotion that dries down quickly and doesn't feel sticky and greasy. It's quite light and watery, and provides rather gentle Hydration. It's also fragrance free which would be good for sensitive skin. You can find it at Savers in the UK so really easy to find!

Although it doesn't dry down sticky or slimy, the finish feels a little waxy, probably due to the mineral oil, which I'm not a huge fan of. I'd rather use something that sinks into the skin with a natural, skin like finish.

Very affordable hand cream that smells fresh, just like cucumber, and delivers sufficient moisture. It absorbs quite quickly so you don't have to worry about waiting before you can touch things again without feeling sticky.

Has a spray bottle but I really just like applying it with my hands to save product

I&#39;m not a huge fan of strong exfoliants, and often look for weaker percentages that can be used more often in the week. If you&#39;re like me, this is a perfect choice. It doesn&#39;t sting at all and just feels like water. After putting it on, my skin also feels like a layer of hydration has been added, so it does a little extra on top of exfoliating. 

My skin is normal but can get a little oily in summer, and I use this evenings every 1-2 days. For more oily people, it might not be enough. 
This product has lasted me ages as well, I recommend!
