Doesn't pill easily, affordable price, no fragrance, no silicones, amazing ingredients, and I love the green tint, which does make a slight difference in evening out my skin tone (I have some mild melasma from pregnancy). It also gives a nice glass skin finish without veering off into looking greasy (especially 15-30 minutes post-application).I bought this product at a 40% discount, and I was right to expect that the product would be very close to its expiration date. I decided to risk it, because it was the only way to get this sunscreen in the EU at an affordable price, when factoring in the international shipping costs and taxes. I wish this weren't so close to the expiration date, but given the pump packaging and the fact that it's a mineral sunscreen (which I'm assuming will not break down like a chemical one might), I decided to risk using this after the expiration date.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Humid and Dry Climates

h. · June 12, 2025

It's my favorite! Reef safe, fragrance-free, silicone-free and non-irritating, plus perfect for both oily and dry skin. I've worn it in humid and dry climates and haven't felt sticky or broken out. It goes on the skin smoothly and I really like the ease of pumping it out of the tube. I was nervous about using it at first because I have super sensitive skin but I've been using it with no problems.It's also perfect for travel since it meets TSA requirements.My only hope for the product is that it would serve a higher SPF. 30 just doesn't feel like enough most days.

4.0 out of 5 stars Does not cover the red.

C.W. · June 17, 2025

Seems to work fine as a sunscreen. Goes on light and non-greasy. The green tint really does not do anything to cover my red. Maybe my face just has too much red undertones but I’m still red after applying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Light weight and helps with acne.

J. · June 7, 2025

I have been struggling with adult acne for years, but this has really helped my skin. I have combo skin that leans towards oily, I tried a few other mineral sunscreens because I heard they helped with acne and this one is IT. The green tint helpsish with evening out skin tone, but there is no white cast and after using it for about 2 weeks I have had no new break outs and the one I had is slowly fading away, I also go painful neck acne and that has subsided as well. This is definitely going to be a staple in my skincare routine.

5.0 out of 5 stars I am a guy and this is the only zinc-based everyday sunscreen I will use (3 years and counting)

M.D. · May 19, 2025

Although I didn't grow up this way, I have been an anti-UV guy for a dozen years thanks to spouse.In SoCal I wear sunscreen daily on my face, but catch-22 is most zinc-based make you look white like a ghost, or they are tinted tan to look like makeup.Having tried 100+ similar SPF 15-30 daily face products (got them free from my biz) over the last 10 years, this is by far my favorite. The green also helps cancel out shaving redness on my neck and face.My only complaint about Hero? I wish they made a similar product that was SPF 50+ and water resistant for 80+ minutes, so I also could have something to wear during physical activity and mid-day during summer when UV index is highest.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pilling skin, sloughing

S.P. · June 18, 2025

Adding this sunscreen to my daily routine caused a ridiculous amount of skin sloughing. No complaints about anything else, but I can't keep using it based on the peeling it caused. I've never had something like this happen before. I have fair, sensitive skin and use benzoyl peroxide and retinol regularly.The lotion is very lightweight and absorbs quickly, leaving a low-gloss finish. It doesn't have a distinct smell. The green did not help with redness. If it weren't for the sloughing issue, I would consider a repeat purchase. As is, I will not be buying this again.

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING PRODUCT!

R.G. · June 20, 2025

10/10 product! In goes on the skin very smoothly and rubs on well! A little green tint when first applying, which is really excellent for canceling out red on your skin. I have very acne prone skin, and this product has yet to cause a breakout or sunburn!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great sunscreen for those that hate wearing it!

A. · June 9, 2025

I have always hated how sunscreen feels on my face. Even “non greasy” sunscreen always feels gross. That is not the case with this product. I actually wear this sunscreen every day and I can’t tell I even have it on. Also, I have sensitive skin and I have gotten chemical burns from certain brands in the past. So far my skin has done well with this. I will purchase again!

super i na periorální dermtitidu

K.J. · July 7, 2023

Krém se příjemně nanáší, pokud se pořádně rozetře nezanechává vůbec žádné šmouhy. Vůně nic moc, ale jinak jsem velmi spokojená, mám periorální dermatitidu a tento krém mé pleti sedne skvěle. Velmi dporučuji.
