TONYMOLY Tako Blackhead Scrub Stick Reviews Summary

Effectiveness

Pros:

• "It worked great!!! I still use it a few times a week all over my face but it did the job I bought it to do within the first week."
• "This TonyMoly by far exceeds any blackhead product I have ever tried."
• "They absolutely do what they say they'll do. There was a very noticeable difference after the first use."
• "To my surprise, my face was blackhead free! My skin looked smooth and clear."
• "Right away I noticed it started removing black heads and I had a weird tiny lump of hardened skin close to my nose and it immediately started removing it."
• "Having read rave reviews, I decided to give this little guy a try. I am 68 years old and still have very large, open clogged pores. It works well."
• "This is an excellent exfoliator and moisturizer. It's easy and fun to use, but it also gives you great results."

Cons:

• "I've been using this nightly for about a month and a half now and it hasn't helped with the blackheads on my nose."
• "After several days of use, nothing with my skin changed. I still had the same amount of blackheads, large pores but also slight irritation from the sandpaper like scrub."
• "The mask didn’t work like it was supposed to and didn’t strip any black pores from my nose."
• "It didn't take care of them immediately."
• "I am pretty disappointed that I wasted my money on yet another product that doesn't do as it claims."
• "It's not removing my blackheads very well."
• "Overpriced, considering it doesn't actually do anything."

Design and Use

Pros:

• "I haven’t even used the product yet but for all those who received the product and think it’s defective, please check that you’ve unscrewed the top (octopus head) rather than just pulling it off."
• "You have to twist it the right way or it will come off the base and look like the product is stuck in the cap."
• "For the price, it’s worth it. Suck it, Biore."
• "The only thing I would change about this product is to make it bigger."
• "I think they should spend less money on packaging and more money on the actual product."
• "Good face wash bad execution on design."
• "The size however is great for travel. Bonus for being more solid than liquid."

Cons:

• "Didn’t come with instructions either and label is in Japanese."
• "It was much smaller than what was pictured."
• "This ended up being a grease stick? No scrub or texture, just an oily grey stick that left my skin feeling like it had a greasy film left after use."
• "Mine doesn’t work, doesn’t apply a layer of anything on my skin."
• "This is a cute little bugger. As for the product I'd have to rate it as 'meh' Personally I'm not thrilled with it."
• "I do think it's a little overpriced for what it is and how small it is."
• "You can't use this out of the bathroom. It's kind of an involved process after you apply it."

Skin Sensitivity and Scent

Pros:

• "It doesn’t have any kind of smell so I’m not sure what others are referring to- and I have a very sensitive nose."
• "I'd say it's safe for sensitive skin, it's not too rough on skin."
• "This has not dried out or irritated my face at all."
• "The little beads may be a little rough to someone with very sensitive skin. However, I enjoy the feeling!"
• "Skin feels super smooth with surprisingly little irritation."
• "I have very sensitive skin and this doesn’t irritate my skin!"
• "I have sensitive skin and this didn't irritate it at all."

Cons:

• "The rose scent is very strong so be aware of you are sensitive to scent."
• "I am also HIGHLY sensitive to scents."
• "If you are trying to avoid fragrance (since it’s a hormone disruptor) this will smell very strong. Super floral scent."
• "The scent is really really strong and kinda chemical smelling. It smells to me like freshly poured cat litter."
• "The scent is light and very pleasant."
• "I’d prefer it was scent free but the scent from the Taco doesn’t bother me at all."
• "The floral scent is overwhelming and not pleasant."
