I'm totally getting fed up now I have tried so may different moisturisers creams lotions gels, every one of them makes my skin sticky if i touch my face you can feel its sticky impossible to glide your finger across it, without moisturiser i can touch my face and glide my finger across.

Try Aldi creams and serums.
I never buy anything else1 -
I bought this after having similar issues with creams feeling too heavy. This feels light and doesn't go sticky for me at all.

I always thought it was glycerin doing that but it turns out dimethicone is the ingredient I need to avoid for that horrid skin feel. Quite difficult in mainstream moisturisers, unfortunately.
That said I now need heavy moisturisers because my face dries out so quickly, so the ones I use do need time to sink in before I can glide my finger over my skin again.HampshireH said:I bought this after having similar issues with creams feeling too heavy.

aqueous cream is a good one. It doesn't make everything stick to you.
