Tatcha is a new line of beauty products that reintroduces skin-care regimens that are centuries old. Japan’s geisha have always had flawless, beautiful skin and now you can too! Here is a little more information about this recently launched company…
For over 300 years, Japan’s geisha have been held in awe for their enduring wisdom and breathtakingly beautiful, porcelain skin. Perfected through centuries of timeless rituals, it was widely believed these beauty secrets had been passed down from one generation of geisha to the next by word of mouth alone. That is, until TATCHA rediscovered their coveted daily regimes in a 200 year-old ancient manuscript, written in the twilight of Japan’s Edo Period. Traveling back to the City of 2000 Temples (Kyoto), TATCHA has worked with teams of scientists, scholars and geisha themselves to decipher the rituals and ingredients from this text. What we uncovered is the very foundation of Eastern skincare and beauty. We offer these formulas in homage to the icon of Eastern beauty and our own storied heritage. Through a proprietary process involving the very best green teas, Okinawa red algae and rice bran—as well as other indigenous extracts—the secrets of the geisha live on in TATCHA.
“Tatcha is my way of sharing my journey East to seek out the meaning behind the myth of the geisha.” —Victoria Tsai Founder, Chief Treasure Hunter
I am always looking for great beauty products and was excited to try something so luxurious! After reading all about Tatcha, I started adding it to my regular skin care regimen. I loved every single product I tried for different reasons. The Enzyme Powder was amazing! You mix the powder with a little bit of water and it makes a paste. After massaging it on your face for one minute your skin feels so good and refreshed! It also has calming properties which help with inflammation and make your skin feels baby soft! The Brightening Serum did wonders for my uneven skin tone. You don’t need to use a lot for it to work, and after just one week I noticed a difference in my complexion and my dark spots were less noticeable. The last product I tried was the Silk Cream. I would use it in the morning and right before bed. This really helped with my dry skin. In the winter, my skin is oily and in the summer it is super dry, probably because of the amount of time I spend outside even though it is over 100 every day! After a week, I don’t have any dry patches and my skin is way softer! I am saving my Aburatorigami Papers for when my skin is oily again. I have heard they work better than traditional blotting papers and I can’t wait to try them out! I would recommend Tatcha Beauty products to anyone who wants smooth, soft, radiant skin!
Tatcha beauty products can be purchased on the Tatcha website and at Barney’s New York. The Classic Rice Enzyme Powder retails for $65.
