Are you trying to offload out of date sunscreen on unsuspecting customers? Because I when I reached out about mine I was told it was discontinuing and getting a 2 month use is reasonable. Why doesn't Hero stand by their products?

What a blessing!
I did a lot of research before buying this on sale. The last facial sunscreen I tried burned my face. I still don't know what did it, as the individual ingrediants were all in other products I use. Anyways, I tried this. I'm not outside much, but wanted to anticipate the summer heat/humidity. I need...

not the best
i'm someone with very dry skin due to tretinoin, and i have super duper acne prone skin. i also have hyperpigmentation and slight redness, as well as textured skin. while this sunscreen didn't break me out, the formula is definitely not breathable imo. it pills up very easily if you have hair on you...

Smelled funny and washed me out
This one didn't work well for me. My face is generally red so I was looking for a green tinted product. It just washed me out, my cheeks were basically muted pink, and it smelled funny/metallic.
Pills no matter what I do
I have tried using this with my skin care routine and without it and no matter what I do, it ends up pilling on my face every single time.
This pills horribly:(
Everytime I try to use this on my face even if I have no skin care at all on my face it pills so incredibly bad. it looks good for two seconds then just straight up pills. and it's sad because it definitely is a great product and takes away redness and no white cast but it just pills. I use it on my body instead and it doesn't pill as bad but still pills every so often.
Great Sunscreen
Beautiful feeling product and love that it doesn't give a whitecast. Just wish it was spf 50! This is probably one of the best sunscreens I have felt on my face. Not greasy or too thick!
Whole face broke out :(
I love other Hero products and wanted to give the sunscreen a try. Unfortunately, my entire face broke out in countless small zits from this product…and I do not have issues with acne normally.
