Tonymoly Tomatox Review

I was shocked to see this mask at a sale and I picked this up because it’s been on my wishlist forever now. I’ve heard great things about Tony Moly I had to give it a try for myself .

Packaging is cute as can possibly be . Shaped like a tomato . Inside consistency is a white paste creamy . Scent reminds me of fresh musk , not like tomatoes that’s what I was expecting lol

Application it goes on nicely . Spread out evenly after 10 minutes I wash this off and my skin is glowing .

Overall I think this product is over hyped . I prefer our kiwi brands for face masks . Their more affordable too . Tony Moly has samples definitely try those out first . It’s good but no wow moment here.

I saw all the reviews and the packaging! Let's talk about the packaging. Perfum bottles are the pretty and cute when it comes to packaging, but Korean skincare are getting really good at some really cute packaging. This one comes in a tomato shaped jar. There's slight gradient in the lighter red at the top where there's a green stem.You open it up there's a plastic lid to keep the product fresh and there's a little plastic spatula for scooping out the product. Although the first ingredient on the list is tomatoe water, it doesn't smell like tomatoes. It has more of a fresh slightly floral scent. The mask is this white cream and it spreads well, so you only need about a couple scoops of the applicator to cover your face and neck. I actually take this all over my face including around my eyes, but not over my lips. The instructions on the box say to avoid contact with eyes but I haven't had any eye irritation from applying this to my eye area. Actually I this mask has been wonderful to use after some peels that would leave my skin sensitized, if my skin was really raw like when I get hayfever and rub my nose raw. I get some stinging around my nose but for the most part this mask is gentle on my red irritated skin. I found it to be more hydrating and moisturizing then some of my more expensive masks because it seems to have the ability to sink into my skin and the mask stays sticky and moist while it's on, whereas some other ones dry to the touch within a few minutes. The box says to massage the product in gently for 1-2 minutes and then leave this on for 5-10 minutes before rinsing this off using a patting motion. I usually leave this on for like 20 minutes or more but the short time that it takes to work makes this really convenient for me because it means that I can apply this prior to getting in the shower and since my shower takes longer than 5 minutes I can rinse this off at the end. When I rinse this off my skin feels like it got some moisture and it's soft and smooth. If I had some redness or irritation prior to applying this it, after rinsing this off my skin has calmed down a bit. I highly recommend this product. I've been using it a couple times a week for several months and I still have alot of product left. Plus it's so affordable for the amount and great for people short on time. And most of the ingredients are natural. The only con I can think of with this product is that it has alcohol seventh on the list of ingredients. But that's not enough to deter me repurchasing this when I eventually run out.

I got this from my good BR friend who loves to share her goodies with me (bless her). She gave me two big bundles of Tomatotox samples, which I have been lusting after for so long. I have seen and read the hype around the Tonymoly Tomatotox for a while now and always wanted to try it for myself after falling in love with Red Apple tox Honey cream and Panda’s dream white magic cream. I am now hook, lined and sinkered!

I have loads of the samples in the tomato shape but it comes in an actual tomato container which is uber cute and calls to my geeky side loud and clear! I adore cute containers and this definitely ticks that box!

Because I can't read Korean I just assumed the directions of how to use it, after all it looks like a moisturising cream. I rubbed it on my face and was always grossed out by the sticky feeling it left on my face every time. I hated using it but once the sticky feeling passed (usually overnight) my face was left supple and hydrated. I had done this at least fifteen times. When I came to review it on BR I found that in the directions you are to use it as a face wash/mask! How silly do you think I felt?! About as cabbage as you can feel hehe. From that point on I used it for its intended purpose and oh wow the results intensified. I was happy to bid farewell to that sticky feeling and welcomed a fresh, soft new canvas.

I have now bought the Tomatotox from a nz importer and oh the softness continues. I am so glad my friend allowed me to try it and love it. My skin thanks Tonymoly and my friend! My skin is less dry, less red and the flaky patches have mostly cleared up. I make this part of my night routine now to maintain this feeling I love so much. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

I was a bit sceptical at first to try this as it looks like sunblock and I'm extremely sensitive to that. But I bought some of this anyway to try it and I'm glad I did.

The container it comes in is just the most delightful thing you've ever seen, well for me it is lol. Its shaped as a tomato and has a screw on lid with a little pop on inner to keep the product in place. However if the lid is not put on correctly, the product ends up leaking.

The first time I tried it, I applied it too much and it started to burn my skin and I started freaking out until the lovely Farmers-wife said I had put it on too thickly. So the next time I put it on, I only put half of it on and there was no burning sensation - phew.

It goes on super smooth and is snow white in colour, its actually quite pretty really. I left it on for the desired time, massaged it in and followed the rest of the instructions.

It comes off easily with a nice clean hot cloth and then just pat dry your skin.

My skin felt so good, so smooth and it looked visibly clearer. I really enjoy using this product on my skin because its so user friendly and feels amazing as long as you don't apply too much.

I am in love with this product! Firstly, let's discuss the packaging shall we? It's in a pot with a screw top lid but it's shaped like a tomato, how cute is that! It comes with a spatula for those who don't like putting their fingers into pots and contaminating the product. The product itself is a thick white cream, the smell is nice like an everyday moisturiser although it doesn't smell like tomato as I expected. It goes on the skin nicely and is easy to apply and doesn't dry "hard" like clay masks do. I generally leave it on for about 30 mins(coz that's how I roll) before washing it off and applying serum and moisturiser. It didn't leave my skin feeling dry and tight like some masks do but my skin felt soft,supple and hydrated which I loved. I couldn't stop touching my face. I love this mask and will continue to love it probably for a very long time

I have begun to form a collection of TonyMoly products. Initially, I fell in love with the packaging, however, after trialing different beauty regimes lately, the products have me blown away! Tomatox comes in delightful packaging, in true TonyMoly style, the shape of the vege/fruit (lets not get into that debate), the Tomato. After unscrewing this, there is also a plastic protective cover to ensure it doesn't go everywhere, which is great! The mask cream however, does not smell like tomatoes. I can't quite put my finger on the scent, although there is a delightful hint of lemony goodness in there! Obviously easy to apply, as it is in cream form, you wipe/apply over your face. I did notice that as time went by it 'thinned out' as it dried, but did not go stringy, or tight. It washed off easily with warm water and my skin felt silky smooth and very soft all over and seemed to project a bit of a glow.( Not a terrible beaming glow) All in all I was very impressed and it definately is everything I would expect from a TonyMoly product.

Like all TonyMoly products, this gorgeous item comes packaged in either a super cute tomato shape or in cute round sample sizes, which are great for newbies or for popping into a travel bag.

Unlike most other TonyMoly products I've tried, this product is pretty much unscented, with a barely discernible smell, which would be great for anyone with allergies or who is sensitive to strong smells. For me, having a great scented product is half the fun of a product, so I would have liked a nice scent to breath in while the mask sits on my skin.

It's a thick white cream that reminds me strongly of sunscreen in the way it simply sits on your skin and doesn't rub in. After massaging it into my clean, dry skin, I'm happy to feel no prickling or itching, though there is a definite warmth to it - kind of a slight warming around the front of my face when I breath,which is not an unpleasant feeling but still a little unusual, almost as if someone is breathing on me with their warm breath.

After leaving the product on my skin for 10-20 minutes (depending on what I'm doing) I then gently remove it. It comes off easily but to be completely honest, I'm always a tiny bit disappointed. Usually when I apply a mask, my skin feels different afterwards. Either sparkling clean, tight and firm or deeply moisturised, depending on the mask, but with this one I kind of feel as if my skin is the same before and afterwards. Yes, my face feels clean and my skin isn't dried out, but that is about it. No earth shattering change or improvement.

I've given this product quite a few goes and although I don't mind it, it isn't anything to excite me. But others have had great success so I'd definitely recommend giving it a try.

First thing I noticed was the packaging: I love the cute tomato tin, looks so cool in my bathroom and I will use it for bits and pieces after all the product has been used up (like hairbands or earrings).

The product itself is white, not like a cream, more like paint (consistency too), it doesn't really have a scent. It is very concentrated, a little bit goes a long way. It comes with a spatula, so you don't have to dip your fingers in.

I use this product every time my skin gets a bit irritated/red. I use it in the shower/bath, so the steam can work with the product, I massage it into my skin for a minute and leave it on for another 3-5 minutes, then wash it off with warm water. My skin is calmed down, red patches disappear(thanks to niacinamide in it) and my skintone is more even after just one application, it works wonders.

I've never had a reaction to tonymoly products, it is a cheap but good quality brand from Korea. (No wonder Korean girls have beautiful skin.)

If you're new to Korean cosmetics, this is definitely one to pick up and try!!

This packaging is so adorable. To me by looking at the packaging you would think that the actual product would be red, right? Wrong!

The product is a white cream. I have very dry sensitive skin and I tried this out after hearing good reviews about this product. And as usual the reviews were bang on.

This mask left my skin feeling super hydrated and soft. I love this! I will be repurchasing this in the near future. Best discovery ever. This is one of my skincare must haves now. Thanks Tonymoly!

I purchased a few tonymoly products online and this was one of them. Cute packaging was definitely the hook for me, but the product is pretty up there a well. The consistency is nothing like i expected, the only way i can think to describe it is as a white grease paint.. It definitely helps moisterise the skin, and makes it feel softer and brighter. I put it on the other night, and accidentally fell asleep with it on, and in the morning my skin was still in my face, and as a bonus it did feel really nice - so I think it could be used as an overnight pack as well.

I have very sensitive skin, and so far I haven't had a problem with any tonymoly products. I think I'll be buying a bunch of both samples and products to give away as Christmas presents as I can't imagine anyone having a reaction to them and the packaging of this range is very cool.

I would consider this range to be the equivalent of say Elizabeth Arden in western terms. Not the best out there, but good quality and the price is more than reasonable.
