TonyMoly Appletox honey cream Review

I love some of their face masks so wanted to try this out.

I liked it and do rate it but it was quite expensive for the amount received. So it will affect my repurchase.

But it was lovely to use. So hydrating and moisturising. Light and nourishing but not greasy. A little did go a long way luckily.

I will be honest I love the packaging and that was what drew me to the product in the first place and i do love it but it and would repurchase, but there are some nicer more affordable ones available.

I love these hand creams I have used the banana one and the mandarin one they work well and look cute on your work desk or dresser/night stand. They smell incredible I will definitely be purchasing more, this apple one looks so good!!

When I was lucky enough to be sent to South Korea on a work trip, I couldn't wait to hit up the beauty stores! The first shop that I went to after the thirteen hour flight was Tony Moly. I was like Eve being drawn to this cult product! There is something about the glistening apple packaging that makes this totally irresistible!

The name is a little misleading as it a gel consistency, not a cream. It does have a sticky, stretch consistency as per the description. And the smell! Mmmmm, beautiful freshly picked apples! It comes with a little spatula to hygienically remove a small scoop from the pot. The idea is that you then pat it between your hands to stretch it, then pat it on to your face.

Being a Korean product it has very little information on how to use it in English and it took quite a lot of googling for me to find the answers. What I did find out that this is best used at night, two or three times a week, so it's more of a overnight mask. I've probably used it once or twice a week and I am only getting to the end of it nearly two years later.

I wasn't really expecting much from this as it was super cheap to buy in Korea, so along with the packaging, I thought it was more of a gimmicky item. Boy, was I wrong! Despite being a gel, the next morning I wake with super soft and moisturised skin, more like what I would expect after using a heavy night cream. This performs just as well as another over night treatment I have that costs five times the price! I will definitely be repurchasing this!

I love this product. I'm not going to lie, the only reason I was drawn to this product was because of the cute packaging. When I first got it, I didn't think it was that amazing, but it was effective for the cheap price you pay. I would use this twice a week (at night), as suggested by the website. However, once I started using the product more (like 3 to 4 times a week) I started noticing a real difference. It is actually really moisterizing. After you wash it off the next morning, my skin is so smooth and hydrated. I wouldn't recommend this if you have oily skin. I have combination skin and on days when I'm oily, I've noticed it has made my skin a bit more oilier. However, when my skin is normal - dry i find it works fine. This maybe just for my skin. It is definitely worth a try this product - you cant complain with a cute apple package and a great price. It smells amazing too - a refreshing apple smell that's not too overpowering.

I bought this off of BeautyNet Korea first as samples, I got about 10 for $5, and then I knew I had to get the full sized tub, if not for the cute packaging alone!

The packaging is freakin' adorable, and it looks like an apple! It's the cutest thing ever. The lid twists off halfway ish down the apple and underneath you are greeted with the golden product. It's not a cream but a gel! It weirded me out at first because I usually only use oils or creams. But then this came along. I'm still not certain where to use it in my routine but it gets used.

Best part? It smells like apples. Straight up apples, not a fake apple smell but real apples! It's amazing. The color of the product is also almost apple flesh colored (maybe after it's been bitten and it's started to yellow).

As this product is a gel, and it is always quite cold, it's so lovely on a hot day to just refresh the face. I don't really find it overly moisturizing but I'll continue using it so I don't waste it, and so I can have a cute little apple sitting around the house!

Let's start with the packaging on this one since it is a face product in an apple! I love it, I own a few other Tony moly products and they do the sweetest packaging. What's also great is that you can re purpose this as a jewelry container, kids toy or whatever you like. Practicality wise, it does up securely but it is a bit of an awkward shape to stack with other products if you are like me and tend to hoard beauty things.

anyway, looks aside. When you open this delightful apple, you are presented with a delicious smelling yellow gel. It smells like a sweet, fresh apple. I really enjoy the smell of this product. Now, if you are used to using a cream, this product is a very different creature. This gel is thin, sticky and stretchy but don't let that put you Off! I have used other Korean skin care products so I'm used to sticky and stretchy but when you apply this, it feels of thin, like it can't possibly be moisturizing enough. It also dries down on the skin like you have put a sick glue on your face. If you use this at night like I do, I strongly suggest giving yourself at least half an hour from applying this till bed time so you don't stick to your pillow.

I use this at night for a few reasons i don't think it has sunscreen and also the stickiness would not be the greatest base for makeup. I have quite dry skin and usually like thicker products to hydrate my face. Because this product i not that at all, for the first week of using it i was kind of dissatisfied. But then i started to notice how soft my face was feeling in the mornings and I'm sure there is a bit of extra glow there too. Now that I'm almost done with this product, I think I'll miss it and will most likely re purchase at some stage.

I have no idea if this would be good for oily skin but it's a thumbs up for my dry skin

I was given this baby as a freebie from a BR lovely to try and Holy Tony Moly I am in love! I instantly fell in love with the apple shape in came in and the honey smell it gives off. It has the texture of watered down honey but less sticky icky.

I have very dry, red skin on the best days so this slice of apple heaven was just what the doctor ordered. I dabbed it on just as it says to do after my shower. When it dries it almost feels like glue drying on my face which gives the slight pulling effect especially around the eye area.

The next day my skin has the best velvety feeling to it. My eye area was so soft and supple. My makeup went on so smoothly without primer after the use. I loved it so much that I bought three more pots of it. I use it every night after my shower. My skin is so hydrated now and has less redness above my brows which for me is a miracle in itself.

The price reflects the quality so I am happy to pay $14.99 per apple because it works better than most other things I have tried. It's true for me.....an apple a day keeps the doctor away. The look, tick! The smell, tick! The texture, mmmm I can deal with it. Results massive TICK! My new holy grail face cream.

I had extremely dry patchy skin from travelling a few weeks ago and none of my moisturizers were improving my skin, I was frustrated and I remembered I had a few samples of this so I thought I would give it a go on the off chance that it will work. The texture is quite gooey so I was not sure how this was going to work with my skin. I have heard of the TonyMoly brand before and had tried one of their products which I liked so it wasn't like I didn't exactly know what I was putting on my skin.

I cleansed my skin with my normal cleanser and then applied this to my face straight after. I rubbed it in using gentle circular motions making sure that it was getting applied well yet gently to my face and my dry skin patches. I went to bed and when I got up in the morning an their was significant improvement in my skin. My dry patches had improved by 50% over night and I was happy and relived. I was actually surprised because I was a bit weary of this due to how the texture felt on my skin. After applying this for 3 constitutive nights my dry patches had cleared up 100% and my skin was hydrated. I will be buying a full size of this because it is dry skins savior and best friend. I do recommend this to you ladies with dry skin and for dry skin emergency's.

I received this Late last week from a lovely friend. Reading up on it I was very excited to see it had honey in it as I have an obsession with honey in skin are,heck I've even applied natural honey to my face as a mask before(great but drips EVERYWHERE!) Anywhoo, I wasted no time in using this. It stung as I had just exfoliated(won't do that again) but it did leave my skin feeling baby butt soft and boy was it hydrating! ThE second time I used it , I didn't exfoliate and didn't suffer the burning sensation I had the first time( thank goodness ). The texture was a little odd being a gel like formula at first and felt a tad tacky on the skin . I prefer to use this at night as I feel it's a bit too hydrating to use under my makeup. it has a gentle apple scent which I love,weird because usually Apple scents put me right off! The packaging is cute and appealing and comes with a screw top lid, it is shaped and coloured like and apple. It comes in a pot with a little spatula for those out there that don't like tainting a product with their fingers. Honestly this is gold in an apple jar and there is absolutely nothing bad I can possibly say about it.

I quite often get bored of face creams after half use and think is this ever going to finish but NOT with this!

I was lucky enough to purchase this off a friend, I had brought the hand cream first to see what the craze of Tony Moly products were about. So after that I had to try the face cream!! This is not only the cutest face cream container you will ever see... Its also has the most yummiest smell to go with it.

First impressions when opening the pot and seeing a pale yellow gel like texture was omg how do I get this out without making a mess but the awesome thing about it, its a screw lid with a extra cover and comes with a small spatula to scoop the product out without sticking ya fingers in and getting dirt in there. You don't need a lot and a small amount goes along way. My skin feels refreshed and moisturized all day without drying out. I have found so light to wear, its been fantastic to have under my BB cream. I don't realize ive got product on my face.
