I have melasma, and need a sunscreen to provide strong UVA / UVB protection. I have used Total Block for 7 years, and it has prevented this condition from worsening, despite my spending a reasonable amount of time in the sun.

The clear does *not* dry completely clear, and can be a bit chalky. My skin is very fair, so even adding all the "light" pigment to the customizable tinted formulation does not result in a light enough color. By blending the tinted and "clear" products so that they match my skin tone, I can get a decent foundation.

I would recommend this product for anyone who is serious about complete sun protection and is patient with applying a product that can be a bit chalky.

I lived in the southwest most of my life and I'm no spring chick, never being a sun worshiper. In the past 10 years I have developed a few minor skin cancers (which I've had removed) and have become more conscious of the damaging effect of the sun's rays. I first used other sun screens then found Total Block and have not used another product since. We have moved to a more northern latitude but I still use Total Block whenever I work outside in the garden or mow the lawn. The product does leave a whitest film (the titanium dioxide), but keeps the damaging rays at bay. Even after I start to tan (mostly because I forgot to put on Total Block) if I use this product I can see immediately that my tan is fading. The 2 oz. container goes a long way and washes off easily.

I highly recommend this product to those who are concerned about their skin.
