I live in California and have very fair skin (blond hair, blue eyes). Most sunblocks I have tried have not worked as promised, even those recommended by my dermatologist (I've tried MD Forte, Solaray, Solbar, and many others - from the cheap stuff to the expensive brands). I have found in the past that even when I apply 30-60 SFP sunscreens during the day, I still get some color in my cheeks - the issue with year-round sunny climates is that even when you are going about your day, driving and shopping and so forth, you are exposed to damaging sun. In addition, I have an indulgence -- I love to bicycle at the beach during the daytime on occasion. Nothing worked until I tried Fallene. It is not a miracle product...I'm sure that if I was in the sun 8 solid hours and applied this product every 2 hours, I would still get a tiny amount of color. However, the WATERPROOF Fallene product works like a charm for the 2-hour bicycle rides - seriously, I get NO color, and the regular SPF 68 product works beautifully for all-day year-round protection. It is the first time I have ever been satisfied with a sunscreen. I like that it is thick, because a little goes a long way. I also can prone to break out, and I have had no problems with this product. Very high quality. If you're fair-skinned, this is the only thing that will work. Be sure to shop around on the internet, as you can get good discounts on it.

I recieved samples of the Total Block clear spf 60 and COTZ clear spf 58 from my dermatologist. I love them both! I wear Bare Minerals foundation and normal sunblock leaves my skin with a sticky feel to it which makes my make up cake on. Total block is not greasey or sticky and gives geat coverage. I've noticed my complection to be smoother and haven't been wearing foundation lately. It is the best product to use on the face. I haven't had a problem with the color either. I'm chinese and tan very easily so I'm light in the winter and med in the summer- the clear blends really well- the tinted one is too light for my skin. I would recommend this product to anyone wanting to prevent sun damage.

i am a Chinese, when i put this onto my face, it's completely fake white, just like put on a mask, it is impossible for me to wear it to office. i think this product is only suitable for white people, since the ingrident of zinc oxide is white, actually i have tried other brand of zinc oxide too, it's the same thing--like white masks. i think oriental people can only use those tinted ones, i just bought the COTZ.SPF 58, (also from Fallene, and today is my first day using it, it looks much natural, so far so good :)

My dermatologist recommended Total Block while I was using bleaching creme to rid my fair skin face of dark spots caused by the sun. Once the spots were gone, I continued to use this product as my foundation b/c of it's incredible coverage yet it's so light. It has SPF 60 and can be color matched to your skin - any time of year b/c of the self-tinting packages it comes with. When I was pregnant I used this product to avoid getting dark spots of pregnancy from sun exposure. I adore this product and highly recommend it to anyone who wants SPF and incredible coverage. (Amazon has the best price on the web - trust me, i've searched!)

For years I have had many a vacation ruined because I break out in hives with very little exposure to the sun. After my dermatologist recommended this product I tried it. Two vacations later . . . Not a single hive or sunburn. Well worth the price. Actually goes pretty far also.

I had use Total block 65 and now 60. Total Block 65 is a great but 60 is even better. It give a light cover up. Since not many of us have even skin tone. This product provide great result and yet doesn't have the unnatural look. I love it and I will buy it again.

This product was recommended by my dermatologist after my Thermage treatment (much better than a facelift and much cheaper, too!). It's a good product, but the only drawback is that the zinc oxide in it (which probably gives it the high SPF #) leaves my skin with a whitish cast. I have to apply foundation over it to return my skin to its natural color. Perhaps next time I'll try the tinted version of the product...I've been using the Neutrogena Ultra-Sheer Dry Touch sunblock which smells great and is instantly absorbed.

I have discoid lupus and I am not supposed to be out in the sun without protection, when I get a break out from the lupus it is always on my face and since I started using this product I have not had any break outs from discoid lupis on my face. It is great sun protection and a great cover up, makes my face look flawless and I think it even minimizes my wrinkles!

This product is an excellent choice for sunscreen!!!! Although it does have a whitish appearance on the skin when applied, it usually disappears after proper application or mixing with a moisturizer. Other than that it is excellent!

I've used this in the past and ordered it again. I like the way I can't feel it on my skin after it dries and that I can be out in the sun all day long and not get burned.
