The Hero Project Vit C-30 Ultra Brightening Serum Review

-
The Hero Project is a relatively new British company whose mission is to find out what skincare lovers really want from products and to produce products that fit that need.  They want to give us consumers products that really work and do what we need them to do, enabling us to reduce our mega stashes of beauty products that we have built up whilst we search for our Holy Grail products.  So far they have only released 5 products and I have been lucky enough to try out 3 of them (you can read my review of Hyasoft Instant Moisture Boost here). 
The Hero Project Vit C-30 Ultra Brightening Serum Review
One of the most recent releases is the Vit C-30 Ultra Brightening Serum* which I have been testing out for well over a month now.  This product contains a powerful 30% Ethylated Ascorbic Acid (vitamin C) which helps to restore clarity to skin and provide evenness and brightness.  It helps to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and also protects the skin from further damage.

Is it any good?  Well I would say that my skin has never looked better.  Being well into the 30+ category I had noticed my skin had started looking uneven and blotchy and my foundation never looked quite as good on my skin as it used to.  After using Vit C-30 Ultra Brightening Serum, my skin definitely looks brighter and the tone is much more even and my foundation looks as good as it used to.  There are no dry patches on my face either.  I am lucky that I don’t have many fine lines and no wrinkles so I cannot comment on how well this product works on those areas.

According to the website, this product is suitable for the 30+ age group and should be included in your morning skincare routine.  Just add 3-4 drops onto your clean face, neck and décolletage, then follow with a moisturiser, or facial oil.  They do mention that when you apply the serum you may feel it on your skin, such as a slight tingle.  This just means the product is getting on with it’s job.  I can feel it on my skin when I apply it, but it's very faint and fades within seconds.

The Hero Project Vit C-30 Ultra Brightening Serum is £39 for £30ml

The Hero Project is against animal testing and plastic microbeads and there are no parabens, sulphates, alcohol, phthalates or mineral oil in this product.  It's also vegetarian and vegan friendly and non-comedogenic (meaning it won't clog pores).

Have you tried any products from The Hero Project?

Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer Review - Bobbi Brown Dupe

-

I picked up the Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer because it looked like it was a dupe for the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base. The Primark version costs £4.50 for 45ml and the Bobbi Brown Face Base costs £48.50 for 50ml, so there is quite a price difference.   I had always wanted to try out the Bobbi Brown product, so when I received a mini version in a gift with purchase goody bag I was really excited to try it out, but I have to say I was somewhat underwhelmed.  I have quite dry skin and the face base did not have as much slip as I was expecting, so it didn't feel smooth when I applied my foundation. For the price I was expecting to love it way more than I did. It does have a lovely lemon smell which I really enjoy, where as the Primark version doesn't really have a fragrance.  Overall, I actually preferred the Primark version as it is thicker and it made for a better base for my foundation. It also seemed to be more hydrating. I have definitely reached mor

I have wanted to get an LED Mask for ages but with prices for some of them at over £400 I just haven't been able to pull the trigger and buy one yet.
