Used to be great- now its awful
I wish I could give this zero stars. I LOVED the previous formula. I never understood the reviews that said it didn’t work (Clearly they don’t just shake the tube or tried to use it to cover their entire face). The NEW FORMULA does not work AT ALL. The consistency changed…instead of creamy, it’s now gel-like. (What some people are calling greasy.) It doesn’t cover anything. It doesn’t blend in well anymore. I will not buy this again unless the old formula returns. They really screwed this one up.

Not exactly sure what’s new with this formula, however I’ve been a huge fan of the rescue balm for ages. I love the color correcting features of this balm and how gentle it is on the skin. It provides light coverage, but melts into the skin seamlessly. As for scar and post blemish recovery, I haven’t seen too too much assistance with that over my years of using this product, but it’s difficult to tell.

Do not recommend
Will not buy again. This used to be my favorite face product. I finally had to restock and the new formula is awful. Need to find an alternative and will never waste money on this again.

Bring back the old formula
The old formula was an every day staple that I would use as a replacement for foundation. The new formula doesn’t color correct at all, is thick and makes me breakout. Please bring back the old formula. I’m so disappointed I spent money on this item. I will be throwing it away because it’s not even worth using.

New formula is a no go
I used to use this product daily. The new formula is absolutely terrible. It does not cover any of my redness and it is very sticky. I returned it and will have to find a different product now.

New formula is worthless
Original formula was amazing, covered beautifully, and was a soft finish texture. This new formula is awful; it pills, doesn’t cover redness, and makes your skin look worse than without it.

No longer holy grail
This used to be the BEST - thick, light green, coverage was so good on my dark spots, I almost didn't need makeup. I thought I bought a bum tube because now it's thin and a weird brown green. More importantly, it doesn't work. I thought it was just this tube, but apparently, from reading the reviews, it's a new formula. So disappointed!!

New formula not the same
I’ve always sworn by this color corrector for my rosacea. Sometimes I would just use this instead of my foundation and it really helped cover up my red cheeks. The new formula isn’t the same. It doesn’t actually do anything and it’s a completely pointless product now!!! Why change something that was so good!?!?

HORRIBLE new formula
This was the ONLY product that has ever worked to color correct my rosacea. This new formula is disgustingly oily and DOES NOT cover up redness whatsoever! So disappointed with you Hero, please change the formula back.

Awful formulation, needs answers.
Agreed with many individuals here. People are upset and it makes total sense. Let’s get these people some answers please Target, We understand hero is the brand, but let’s please get with the brand and get an update to these people. People are wanting to know when the old formula is returning? It’s obvious the formula worked very well before, and now since this is a skin condition this can mess with a lot of people’s livelihood. Choosing to not respond to the questions is honestly just rude & harsh aside from being highly unprofessional, I myself have tried to Q&A asking when the old formula is coming back, and my Q&A never got approved.

Terrible new formula
I have used this product for years and the reformulation is so bad. I thought I received a bad tube. It is so sticky, does not apply evenly, and has an awful orange hue. I will be switching to Dr Jart’s version. It’s too bad they are willing to sacrifice their quality and lose customers.

Terrible
The original formula is the only one out of two products I’ve ever used on my acne. Please bring it back I am going insane and my skin will soon when I run out.

New Formula is Awful
After reading other reviews I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels this way. I’ve used this product for years and absolutely LOVED it. This new formula is just terrible. My face is not only still red after but now orangey. Hero, PLEASE bring back the old formula!!
