Light-Activated Skincare? My Honest Review of Heaven Skincare’s Prism Protection SPF 50+

When it comes to skincare that feels indulgent yet science-backed, few names carry the prestige of Heaven Skincare. Known for its royal connections (yes, that Royal Warrant) and celebrity clientele, the brand has built a reputation for fusing nature with serious results.

Their latest innovation, Prism Protection SPF 50+, promises to be more than just your everyday moisturiser. It’s a broad-spectrum SPF, antioxidant-rich hydrator, and light-activated anti-ageing treatment; all rolled in.

As someone who’s constantly on the lookout for multi-tasking skincare that simplifies my routine, the idea of a moisturiser that protects, hydrates, and rejuvenates sounded too good to resist. So, I’ve been putting Heaven’s Prism Protection to the test over the past four weeks to see if it truly lives up to the hype.

Texture & First Impressions

From the first application, Heaven Skincare’s Prism Protection SPF 50+ feels like a true luxury cream. It’s thick, creamy, and instantly cocooning. The kind of texture that makes you slow down and actually enjoy your skincare routine.

Despite its rich consistency, it spreads beautifully once warmed between your fingers. A little goes a long way, and that’s something I learned after my first few uses. Too much and you’ll notice a faint white cast that needs a little extra blending.

What impressed me most was how gentle it felt. On a few occasions, I accidentally got some near my eyes, and unlike many SPFs, there was no stinging or irritation. It’s clearly been formulated with sensitivity in mind.

It leaves a dewy finish –  not greasy, and feels deeply hydrating, making it an ideal choice for the colder months when skin tends to crave richer moisture.

Key Ingredients & Benefits

One look at the ingredient list and it’s clear Prism Protection SPF 50+ means business. Heaven Skincare has packed this formula with serious skincare actives; the kind usually found in high-performance serums and combined them with daily sun protection for a one-step wonder.

Here are the standout ingredients that caught my eye:

  • Multi-Molecular Hyaluronic Acid: Hydration on every level. This blend of different-sized molecules penetrates deeply to plump and smooth while keeping the surface hydrated throughout the day. Perfect for skin that feels tight, dull or dehydrated.
  • Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): The all-rounder ingredient that brightens, balances and strengthens. It helps fade uneven tone and redness while supporting the skin’s barrier against pollution and environmental stress.
  • Vitamins E & B5: A powerful antioxidant duo that soothes and conditions. Vitamin E protects against free radical damage, while B5 calms and softens the skin for a supple, comfortable finish.
  • Cotton Stem Cells: A gentle yet high-tech addition, known for its ability to protect and repair. It’s said to counteract environmental aggressors, from city pollution to blue light, making it ideal for people like me, glued to a laptop or phone all day.
  • SPF 50+ Broad Spectrum:  The star of the show. Offering protection against both wrinkle-causing UVA and pigment-triggering UVB rays, it shields skin year-round and reduces the risk of premature ageing.

Together, these ingredients deliver what most moisturisers can’t: deep hydration, visible radiance and reliable daily protection; all in one product.

4 Weeks Later

After four weeks of daily use, Heaven Skincare’s Prism Protection SPF 50+ has comfortably earned its spot on my dressing table.

What I love most is how effortless it’s made my morning routine. Knowing my moisturiser already includes SPF 50+ means one less step, and one less product to layer before makeup. It sinks in nicely once worked into the skin, leaving behind a soft, hydrated glow rather than a greasy sheen.

It performs particularly well as the weather turns colder. My skin tends to feel tight and dry by midday during autumn, but with this, it’s stayed hydrated and comfortable all day long. The thick, creamy texture acts almost like a barrier cream, locking in moisture and protecting against that dry, indoor heating air we all know too well.

Makeup applies smoothly on top too. Foundation glides over evenly without pilling or sliding off halfway through the day, which is always a good sign with SPF-based creams.

The only caveat? Use it sparingly. A little truly goes a long way, and applying too much can lead to a faint white cast until fully blended in. Once you find the right amount, though, it leaves skin looking fresh, hydrated and protected – exactly what you want from a daily moisturiser.

The Technology Bit (Explained Simply)

Now, here’s where Heaven Skincare’s Prism Protection really stands out; its light-activated Prism Technology.

In simple terms, the formula contains special peptides that are triggered by light exposure. When sunlight hits your skin, these peptides activate and get to work, boosting collagen and elastin production to help firm, smooth and brighten the complexion.

It’s a clever idea. Instead of light being something your skin needs protecting from, this formula turns it into something your skin can actually benefit from.

I can’t claim to have witnessed peptides springing into action, of course, but over four weeks I did notice my skin looking a touch brighter and more even, especially around my mouth, where I tend to have mild pigmentation. Whether that’s the niacinamide, the SPF protection, or the light-activated peptides doing their thing, it’s a win in my book.

Would I Repurchase?

After four weeks of testing, Heaven Skincare’s Prism Protection SPF 50+ has genuinely impressed me. It feels indulgent but performs like hardworking skincare; delivering hydration, protection, and radiance all in one.

I love that it streamlines my morning routine without compromising on results. The fact that it’s gentle, packed with antioxidants, and offers SPF 50+ protection makes it a strong contender for my go-to autumn and winter moisturiser.

While it’s on the richer side (so I’d suggest applying sparingly, especially if you have oily skin), the payoff is worth it. My skin has felt softer, smoother, and visibly more even since incorporating it into my daily lineup.

So, would I repurchase?
Yes. Especially as the days get colder and my skin needs an extra layer of nourishment and protection. It’s a luxurious, light-activated SPF moisturiser that truly earns its place in Heaven Skincare’s royal-worthy lineup.
