I don’t know why but the price of good sunscreen lotions in Indonesia is really high, compared to e.g. the US or Australia. That’s why it makes me happy to have found this sunscreen: Vaseline Intensive Care Healthy Sunblock. It is broad spectrum (i.e. protects against UVB and UVA as indicated by it’s protection factor SPF 30/PA++), water resistant, not (too) sticky, moisturizing, and at Rp23,00 for a 100ml tube, relatively cheap! What a deal!
When you first put the lotion on, it is a bit sticky with a pronounced white cast. But I find that after a few minutes, the stickiness is much reduced, and the white cast disappears. It does not dry completely matte, but given the level of protection, the price, water resistance and fragrance, I can definitely live with a slightly sticky, but somewhat glowy, skin.
