Details & care

What it is: A new multitasking green recovery cream that soothes dry, flaky skin while blurring redness with its color-correcting green tint.

Who it's for: Fair to medium skin tones.

What it does: A subtle green tint with hi-tech color-changing pigments that activate as you blend, turning from green to beige in seconds to camouflage redness and leave skin glowing all day long. Perfectly lightweight for daytime use, Rescue Balm +Red Correct soothes and visibly restores dry, flaky skin with powerful antioxidants and peptides.

How to use: Apply as the last step in your AM skincare routine over SPF, or as a tone-evening primer under makeup.

Pro tips: A little goes a long way, dab a dot on blemished spots. For bigger areas, start with a pea-sized amount, blend out, and watch the color-changing pigments work their magic.

Bring back the old formula

I used this product daily until the formula recently changed, the new formula doesn’t blend, work, or feel nearly as well as the previous one did.

Go back to the original formula

The original formula worked beautifully; smooth application and mild, but effective, redness coverage. It also was long lasting. The first "improvement" had virtually no actual redness coverage. I haven't tried the second "improvement" and don't plan to. I just don't get why Hero changed the original formula.

A lot of people have shared similar feedback. We took that feedback seriously and went back to the lab. The New & Improved Rescue Balm + Red Correct brings back the fuller coverage and more matte finish that came through clearly in feedback like yours. We'd love to follow up. Watch for an email to arrive soon!

Used to be great!

I didn't realize they'd changed the formula and am so disappointed by this new (worse) version. I just checked and my original tube says it was made in Korea (known for making great skincare products), the new one says it's made in the US. The new one is sticky even hours after applying, doesn't blend in as well and doesn't correct red coloring as well. Such a bummer!

Bring back the old formula

I’ve been using this product many days a week for years and I was able to deal with the first “improved formula”, but now it does not blend. Goes on pale green and dries white where it used to blend with my skin tone. There’s also a lot of separation that I never experienced before. Kind of a disappointment as it was a staple. I hope hearts and minds can be changed and we get the old formula back.

Not as good as the OG formula from korea

I was hesitant to tet this after being disappointed when they changed the formula last time. I still had some of the OG formula, made in korea. I'm not sure what separation issues it had, I never had that issue. It covered the redness well, blended into skin perfectly, went under makeup well, and would be worn alone. This new and improved formula, for comparison covered the redness and is not sticky, however it leaves my skin very orange so it cannot be worn alone. It also does not go under makeup well. So, I am once again disappointed. I wish they'd listen to their customers and return to the original formula.
