Green tint camouflages my pink sensitive skin
5 out of 5 stars
Joyce K. - 6 days ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great mineral sunscreen with a green tint that camouflages my naturally pinky-toned skin. I am a fair redhead with red patches on my cheeks and this masks the redness quite well, as well as reducing the pinkiness on my body. It is not drying which I was concerned about and I have had no adverse reactions to it. It is priced too high for the amount you get so I hope that can be remedied soon.
Okay

For this Hero Superlight Sunscreen, the design of the tube is nice and makes dispensing easy. I like that it has a very smooth texture, doesn't smell like a typical sunscreen, and doesn't feel heavy on my skin. The green tint isn't noticeable, yet it reduced the redness on my face. This sunscreen goes beyond most because it also includes antioxidant superfood botanicals. It's a great product overall! Please note: I received this product in exchange for my honest review. All opinions stated here are my own.
I love this sunscreen!

I was super psyched when I shared this Superlight Sunscreen by Hero Cosmetics on my socials, and they sent me a free one! Does it get any better than free?? Yes, it does! This truly is a very light and fast absorbing sunscreen. Plus, it doesn't make me break out, and it doubles as a makeup primer. I can wear makeup over it super easily and be protected from the sun. I love it, and I highly recommend it!
Weightless and breathable

I have dry-combo acne prone skin and finding the correct skincare can be a challenge. This sunscreen blends quickly and is not greasy. It hydrates my skin while also remaining weightless and breathable. It is faintly tinted green, helping to reduce my redness, which I appreciate. A little goes a long way or it can produce a bit of a white cast. This is one of my favorite sunscreen. Definitely recommend trying out if you are acne prone and/or have some redness. I received this product for free for the purpose of my review. All opinions are my own.
Great Sunscreen!

This sunscreen applies well and feels light and comfortable on my skin. It absorbs well and has no residual tackiness or greasiness which is important to me. There is a slight green cast to it, which I actually liked as it helped balance out some of the redness in my face without otherwise affecting the appearance of my skin tone (no white cast). However, not sure if that would be the case for all skin tones. I also noticed that if I don't let it fully absorb before continuing with my skincare and makeup routine, it "moves" on my skin a little bit and creates some whiteness where it has been "pulled" as I apply other products and it blends with them. As long as I let it fully absorb first, this isn't an issue though. It works well with the rest of my skincare routine and makeup or on its own. Also, it has no fragrance, and definitely does not have that classic "sunscreen" smell. It feels like I don't have anything on while providing everyday sun protection. I quite like it!

Fast Absorption

Hero’s Force Shield Superlight Sunscreen SPF 30 is one of the best sunscreens that I have ever used. I love how fast it absorbs into my skin. It’s a lightweight solution for sun protection that actually feels good when I apply it. This is a great sunscreen if you don’t like the heavy stuff that takes forever to rub in and absorb. I like the moisturizing benefits that don’t clog my pores or cause acne on my face. I also like that this product is mineral based, fragrance free, and hasn’t caused any irritation. I recommend using due to the overall quality. I received this product for free for the purpose of my review. All opinions are my own. #ad

This sunscreen is truly super lightweight. It absorbs well and is not greasy. It does not feel like I’m wearing sunscreen. I love that it is fragrance free. I do typically prefer a stronger SPF though. This one works great under makeup or on its own. There is no white cast. It has an airless pump style tube. This is a mineral based sunscreen. I received this product for free for the purpose of my review. All opinions are my own.

This is a great sunscreen from hero called the force shield superlight sunscreen. It is just that - superlight. Its not heavy and applies really easily and does not feel heavy on the skin. It is SPF 30 which is a decent coverage and perfect for everyday wear. Since it is lighter it does not clog your pores and wears well under makeup.

This sunscreen is good for daily use. If you are not using makeup and using it only with moisturizer then you will get shiny face. It has very minimal white cast. It is not thick and greasy. It has 30 spf. Im glad I received a free product to test. I use it on daily basis.

I love this sunscreen because it's lightweight, leaves no white cast, and doesn't clog my pores. The major downside is that it isn't water proof, so once you start to sweat it becomes useless. Swimming? Forget it.

This is the second bottle of Superlight SPF 30, and I love it. The product quality is excellent. I appreciate that it works well under makeup. It also did cause any adverse reactions or breakouts. The sunscreen has a light zinc oxide scent, but it doesn't leave a white cast on my face. It also doesn't leave it looking chalky after it dries. Reapplication may be needed if you will be outdoors for an extended period. I was gifted a free product in exchange for my honest opinion.

This sunscreen is amazing! It's formulated for acne prone skin and it definitely works well, without causing breakouts or further angering your skin! It's super lightweight, absorbs quickly, isn't sticky, and doesn't interfere with your makeup either! I'm super pale and haven't burned once since I started using this product, and its already replaced the stuff I had been using the last few years! So happy to have found this product, and thank you Hero Cosmetics and Hero Skin Squad! I received this product for free for the purpose of my review. All opinions are my own.

Force Shield feels great on my skin. I love that this absorbed well. It does also have a very light green tint to balance redness. My skin was very protected as I did my yard work. This pump bottle is no nice. The pump gives a thin drop that I apply directly to my face. There is no wasting my product. It also has a top to secure it, while I carry it in my bag, no spilling or leaking. I received this product for free for the purpose of my review. All opinions are my own.
