I love Japanese sunscreens, I visit Japan often and always stock up there as they are dirt cheap there. A lot of them have alcohol but I like how much more stronger they are than korean ones in terms of preventing burning and longer lasting. Allie and Anessa is my favourite brand. Im bilingual with Japanese so can read the ingredients, and almost all have alcohol. The ones I found that don't, are the kiss me mommy and canmake mermaid sunscreen, anessa mild milk, verdio and the curel sunscreens. Probably a lot more out there but out of the ones I bought in Japan these were alcohol free and sensitive skin friendly.

Not Alice dropping a Death Note reference so casually 😂 I still can't believe how inexpensive Asian sunscreens are compared to the west. Japan is even more insane with the bulk format. Up to 250ml/8.5floz for less than 15€. Btw, I've been using the Hada labo HA foaming cleaner (the one with the pump) for over a month and I can finally confirm that I found a non stripping Japanese cleanser 🎉

@@AliceintheRabbitHole There's also Curél with a line targeted for dry and sensitive skin. I think I got why the ones that come in tubes are quite stripping. You're supposed to use a very small amount and work it with a foaming net. You end up with a very thick foam like a shaving cream. I've got no time for that. I'm a lazy girl so the ones in the pump bottle work perfectly for me. Also my friend has dry skin and she's hooked on the Sana milk cleaner right now.

The Nivea super water gel (NOT EX) is my favorite for neck/chest/body when running errands. My face is too dry for it, but the rest of me is pretty balanced/normal. The first time I bought it, I got the larger pump bottle, and since then I get a refill pouch every summer. While I don't mind a heavy-feeling sunscreen on my face, I can't stand the feeling of sunscreen on my neck/chest. The nivea water gel is great for those areas since It's about as close to weightless as I've found in a sunscreen. So affordable, so elegant. I would happily recommend it to anyone with normal/oily skin because it is very lightweight, but I can't recommend it for dry skin because it was a bit too drying on my face unfortunately.

For example I used the biore uv aqua rich and all it's previous formulations for years and back in the day I bought it for $25 for the bottle! Now it's $18. But I just cracked open the scinic one and it can't be beat for $10! Edited to add: it's the watery essence Japanese version of the biore that's nicest.

Hope that helps!
