It's perfect for travel too! The scent is subtle, making it pleasant to use without any overwhelming fragrance. It's hygienic and the amount is generous - one packet is enough for a thorough cleanse. The texture is gentle and spreads easily without irritation. It removes makeup effectively and leaves my skin feeling hydrated after washing. It's great for daily use without any concerns.
ConsI didn't experience any blemishes while using it, and there wasn't anything I found disappointing about the product.

The individual packaging is not only hygienic but also perfect for travel.
ConsThe portioned amounts are a bit awkward. It would be better if each packet contained just enough for a single use.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI love that it's individually packaged, which seems more hygienic, and the amount is quite generous. My skin has been dry, tight, and a bit irritated with some dead skin cells, and since I have sensitive skin prone to friction irritation, I couldn't exfoliate. After going out, when I cleanse with the Tok Tok Shot Cleansing Balm, there's minimal irritation even when rolling it on, so I can cleanse without worry. It's also gradually helping with dead skin cell care. I usually only wear sunscreen and foundation, so I'm not sure about deep cleansing, but it removes everything cleanly without leaving residue. Even after emulsifying and rinsing, it doesn't feel too slippery, so I didn't need to double cleanse.
ConsI didn't find any downsides to using this product!
TipDespite being a balm, it doesn't feel stiff even when first using it, and it's not too oily, which makes it even more comfortable to use.

The packaging has a tear line, making it convenient to use straight from the package. 2. Individually wrapped for hygiene, which is great. 3. The thorough individual packaging makes it a perfect travel essential. 4. The ingredients are good, so you can use it with peace of mind. 5. The scent is likely to be widely appealing. 6. True to its 'Tok Tok Shot' name, it has a lively feel, but with a unique softness that doesn't feel off-putting.
ConsRoom for improvement: 1. I thought it would be divided into single-use portions, but there's more product than expected, which is a bit ambiguous. Still, better to have more than less.

Portability + Size First off, it's conveniently packaged in small 6ml containers, making it super easy to carry around! I usually use cleansing balms, but it was always a hassle to portion them out for trips or business travel. These small-sized packages are especially great for that. Plus, one container is enough for 2-3 days, which feels just right and hygienic. 2. Scent The scent is slightly sweet without feeling too artificial, which I like. It might actually be fine for those who usually dislike cosmetic fragrances. 3. Cleansing Effectiveness + Feel As I only wear sunscreen or cushion foundation, I found the cleansing power satisfactory! Sometimes other cleansing balms can feel overly slippery when rolling, but this one doesn't, which is nice. Even after using an exfoliating toner, there's no residue left and my skin feels refreshed. Despite its good cleansing power, there's almost no skin tightness after washing, and it leaves a slightly moisturized feeling! 4. Irritation Perhaps because it contains spicules, there was a slight tingling sensation. But I tend to feel this way with other Leegeehaam products too, so this level of stimulation doesn't bother me much. If you have very sensitive skin, it might be best to do a patch test before using it.
ConsAs it's a cleansing product, I think it would be fine without adding fragrance. Also, I usually remove eye makeup with cleansing balms, but I'm not sure if it's safe to use around the eyes since it contains spicules.
TipUnlike other cleansing products, it seems that rolling and emulsifying for a longer time helps remove impurities better! And since it melts with the warmth of your hands, taking your time when using it gives the best results.

Thanks to its small size, it's easy to slip into your bag, and each pod can be used 2-3 times, helping to reduce luggage. [Hygiene] The individual packaging means no sharing with others, and you can use it 2-3 times without needing a spatula, making it clean and hygienic! [Texture] It melts smoothly with your hand's body heat, adhering perfectly to the skin and applying smoothly. [Gentle on skin] Despite being called a 'Tok Tok Shot', I used it without any skin irritation. [Cleansing power] It removes everything from color makeup to mascara as gently as a cleansing oil! The balm transforms into an oil, penetrating the skin well and emulsifying easily, allowing for a thorough cleanse without excessive rubbing. [Hydration] After use, there's no skin tightness! No dryness! Just a moisturized, soft, and smooth finish!
Cons[Scent] I'm not a fan of artificial scents, and this has a grape fragrance that's too sweet, like gum. The scent might be polarizing! [Storage] The individual packaging can be cumbersome for daily use at home, and the small quantity makes it inconvenient to store in the bathroom. Also, the continuous plastic waste is a bit disappointing from an environmental perspective. [Quantity] The amount in each pod is quite generous, which can be too much for a single use, leaving leftovers! This is both an advantage and a disadvantage. It's great for a 2-day trip, but there's no way to store it once opened.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros* Individual packaging Most cleansing balms come in jars, which can be unhygienic. This product, however, is individually packaged, making it super hygienic! It's also great for those who frequently stay out overnight. I find it very convenient to carry around. * User experience Usually, balms and oils feel heavy during use, making double cleansing a must. But this product transforms from balm to oil to milk, leaving no residue at all! It also contains spicules, giving your skin a soft, smooth feeling. (If you regularly use products like Real Barrier, you might barely notice this.) Due to the spicules, those with sensitive skin might find it challenging for daily use, but using it 2-3 times a week could help maintain soft skin! * Scent I generally prefer unscented products, but this has a pleasant, subtle sweet grape fragrance that makes cleansing enjoyable. It's not that ambiguous cosmetic scent, which makes it even better!
Cons* Ambiguous amount Since it's individually packaged, I used the entire contents thinking it was a single-use amount. However, there was more product than I expected. It might be fine for those who like to use cleansing products generously, but for me, it was enough to drip down. I think it would be better if they reduced the amount per package and increased the number of packages!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros- The product comes with 12 individually wrapped pieces, making it hygienic and convenient! While it's a bit of a hassle to rinse and recycle each one after use, it feels more sanitary than scooping from a cleansing balm jar. - The scent is surprisingly strong, with notes of grape and berry! It's a cute fragrance that I like, but it might be polarizing for some. - As a collagen boosting balm, it lives up to expectations. After using it, I noticed my skincare products absorb better than usual! It leaves skin feeling hydrated without being greasy, so it should work for all skin types. - The amount is generous, and once emulsified, it cleanses incredibly smoothly!
Cons- The amount in each package is quite generous, which felt a bit wasteful. - The fragrance is quite strong and lingers even after cleansing, which might be overwhelming for some. - While the quantity is ample, the texture is quite firm. Before it emulsifies, it tends to break into chunks, which can be inconvenient.

While it might not be the most eco-friendly, it's hygienic and would be super handy for travel. This was my first time trying this type of cleansing balm, and I was pleasantly surprised! It effectively removes basic makeup, though I can't speak to its effectiveness on mascara. What's even more satisfying is the feeling that it's really drawing out sebum. This encourages me to massage it in thoroughly, resulting in a deeper, more refreshing cleanse.
ConsDue to the spicules, it might be too harsh for daily use. I'd recommend using it maybe once a week to avoid irritation.

So, I've been consistently using Banila Co's cleansing balm product! When I got the chance to be part of The Hwahae Testers for various types of cleansing balms, I was really excited! ❤ Convenient and hygienic individual packaging First and foremost, the most convenient aspect is that it comes in individual portions! I remember when I used the Banila Co product before, Olive Young had a package with small sample portions, which I found incredibly useful. This TOVB cleansing balm is actually released in individual packaging, making it super convenient for travel and hygienic to use. For reference, each portion is enough for 3 to 5 uses! ❤ Powerful cleansing effectiveness As expected from a cleansing balm, this product really delivers when it comes to cleansing power. It removes makeup so well! I've tried micellar water, cleansing creams, and oils, but for cleansing effectiveness, I think cleansing balms are the best at removing makeup. ❤ Less irritating than expected I was worried because it's called a 'tok tok shot', but it's actually less irritating than I thought. You can use it daily for cleansing without issues.
Cons💙 The scent might be divisive It has a sweet grape scent! Personally, I like it, but if you dislike sweet scents or prefer unscented products, you might find it uncomfortable.
TipThe needle shot isn't irritating, and it comes in individual packaging, so I'd recommend it as a good option for those new to cleansing balms.
