The Hero Project

THE HERO PROJECT is a group of products I've seen on many blogs and until recently have never tried. Hearing only good things and reading rave reviews, I have been lucky enough to try out three products from the range.
The Hero Project

The brand itself is said to be dedicated to creating the best skincare products in its category and with its team of highly skilled scientists and researchers, they are constantly looking to up the game of the beauty industry. Now launched on QVC (here) it is a brand that for me has managed to explain what each product is, does and has managed to cut out some of the scientific jargon to make skincare seem easy.

The first product in my trio is the Hyasoft Instant Moisture Boost. Described as being "A non-sticky, fast-absorbing clear gel with vitamin B5 and hyaluronic acid that banishes dull, dry complexions with an instant moisture boost. Leaves your skin looking and feeling smooth, springy and bright."

My skin literally sucks this gel up as soon as I apply it and what I like about it is that as soon as you do apply it, it disappears so incredibly quickly and leaves behind absolutely no trace it was there, in fact, the only reason I do notice is because my skin becomes incredibly soft and supple after using and is so smooth to the touch, I get that 'just had a facial' feel to my skin. You also only need a really small amount because it has quite a runny texture and it is a case of a little goes a long way. Hyasoft retails for £19 for a 30ml tube.



Next up we have Vit C-30 Ultra Brightening Serum and it is described as being "A powerful vitamin C serum with 30% ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid (one of the highest amounts to make it into a product). Helps to improve the appearance of existing fine lines and wrinkles now, and protects from pesky damage later". For me, this has more of facial oil like texture to it than a serum does and the inclusion of a pipette for dispensing does make using it a much easier task.

It is enriched with natural extracts of Grapefruit and Lemon which give it a powerful punch when it comes to the scent and I actually rather like it. Suitable for 30+ skin age bracket, I have been using this after cleansing but before moisturising in a morning and what I have noticed is, what had become a visible patch of dry skin on my forehead, is now no longer visible and has disappeared. When I used Vit C-30 for the first time, there was a slight tingling sensation, which wasn't uncomfortable, but it stopped within seconds. I love that it fits into my skincare regime in a morning and whilst I have been using it for just a few weeks, I am really intrigued to see how my skin will be at a later date.  You will find Vit C-30 priced at £39 for a 30ml bottle.

The final product is the Double Blur HD Ready Skin Perfector and the product that I have read the most about and was really looking forward to trying. Described as follows "This HD ready skin perfector with Dual Diffusion Technology™ helps make you camera ready… instantly. It helps create a noticeably uniform skin surface by filling fine lines and wrinkles plus covering spots and pores to boot. All those little problematic areas (sorry, we all have them) get blurred out and skin becomes mattified, smooth and silky. No filter needed!".  With this product you can use it in a variety of ways - firstly on its own, you can simply just apply it where you feel you need it, it has a creamy texture which spreads onto the skin relatively easily and leaves no hint it is there.

You can also mix it with your moisturiser or you can mix with your tinted moisturiser which I have done and also with your liquid foundation. It works so well as a primer whilst perfecting those imperfections that I use it quite frequently because for me, it helps covers a few blemishes that annoy me and it allows liquid products to work with dry skin to stop the products grabbing onto that dry skin and becoming even more noticeable. At just £24 for a 30ml tube, this is such an amazing product and my favourite of the three that I have a spare tube in case I run out.



This has been such a lovely insight into the Hero Project and what it not only stands for but is all about. All of the products are free from parabens, sulphates, alcohol and mineral oil. Vegetarian and Vegan friendly as well as being Non-comedogenic.  I also love that the products are straightforward and have a job to do and fit within an existing skincare routine and even if you don't have one, there are further products within the range to give you one.
