Today I am going to do a review of the Tony Moly Egg Pore Silky Smooth Balm that I recently purchased when I was at Gold Coast. The packaging is in the form of a golden coloured egg. It sort of reminds me of the Golden egg in the Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire, where it was the goal of the First Task in the Triwizard Tournament that Harry competed in. That being said, its a really pretty and cute packaging.
The Egg Pore Silky Smooth Balm is meant to be used as a face primer and is to be applied right after moisturiser.
A description:"TonyMoly Eggpore Silky Smooth Balm is a concealer that is enriched with protein, effectively make the pores on nose invisible. Contains Magnolia bark and bud bean extracts, it soothes the irritation caused by daily pollution and free radicals The egg and camellia extracts further control sebum secretion, leaving your face soft and oil-free, make up will last longer as well."
Top view of the cute packaging. The product is stored in a plastic box which I find very handy.
The product is stored under a plastic lid inside the "golden egg".
The balm has a very smooth , silky and velvety texture.
However, this product is silicon based so those with more sensitive skin or is allergic to silicons should be careful. Better yet, if you're allergic to silicons, stay away from this. It is not advisable to use this everyday as it may clog pores. I will only use it for special occasions. I really dont think I want to use this for a normalday; its just too much work and Im lazy. ;)
In conclusions, it is definitely worth a try. It is a really good primer for those with enlarged pores that wants a flawless finish on the face, with a little oil control to help mattify the face.
On another note, look what came in the mail today. I didn't think it would happen but here it is. Now, time to write an appeal letter. Grrrrr.
