Actually, sometimes you don't feel cooler. It depends on the relative humidty. If the humidty is too high, the moving air will not be effective in evaporating moisture (persperation or sweat) from the skin (which evaporation removes heat from the skin) and no cooling effect will occur. A fan in Phoenix, Arizona is much more effective than the same fan in the Everglades of Florida.

The sweat on your skin, cools in the air of the fan.

Because we have body heat that is higher than we desire to live in. So, if the fan is blowing over you it is pushing the body heat away from you, and it makes the skin temperature lower.

the fan blows the air out which has a cool effect, we feel the air hitting us, and the result - it feels good.

Evaporation of perspiration cools the body.
