In the age of brand deals, it’s truly hard to tell what celebrities and influencers are actually using…and what they’re just paid to say nice things about. It’s like playing Russian roulette- is this product really a miracle worker or are they just using the Beauty Filter on TikTok?
To be fair, Hailey Bieber has become our go-to beauty guru for a reason…She plugged products from brands like Kosas and Tower28 that became overnight viral sensations. The clean beauty makeup brands were solidified as go-to’s in everyone’s makeup bag, with products that keep your sensitive skin in mind as you wear them.
And since celebs are the ones who spend the most time sitting in makeup chairs getting the best of the best slathered on their faces, you know they have some secret products up their sleeves. But we are no longer in the days of gate-keeping, and I have the skincare brand that’s going to change the way you view your routine.
Tatcha is a Japanese brand, founded by Vicky Tsai who suffered from acute dermatitis until a trip to Kyoto changed her life (and skin) entirely. After studying Japanese ingredients and rituals, Tsai stayed true to J-Beauty with Tatcha- enlisting a team of scientists, a geisha, and cultural advisors to create a brand good enough for the likes of Selena Gomez, Meghan Markle, and yourself.
Celebrities like Jennifer Aniston, Kim Kardashian, Meghan Markle, Camila Mendes, and Selena Gomez have gushed about Tatcha- for good reason. With elite, luxury packaging and innovative products, Tatcha is worth every penny. I’ve had the pleasure of trying multiple Tatcha products, and honestly my skin has never looked or felt better.
If you’re looking to fix any problem- texture, acne, dry skin, oily skin, sensitive barrier- there is something for you at Tatcha. Here are my highlights for celebrity approved skin:
Tatcha Water Cream
Tatcha
My absolute favorite of the Tatcha moisturizers- this is a light, barely-there moisturizer that fights aging and shrinks your pores. It’s great for those with oily skin, or someone who doesn’t want to feel that there moisturizer is there (even though it’s still doing its job.) With ingredients like Japanese Wild Rose, Japanese Leopard Lily, and Hadsei-3 Complex, this will calm problem skin, improve water retention and elasticity in skin, and minimize excess oil production.
Tatcha Rice Polish
Tatcha
First of all the packaging stunned me- mess free, which is borderline impossible with a powder. Mix a few shakes of powder with water and you have a gentle foaming exfoliant that evens out texture and gives your skin a healthy glow. The best part? It doesn’t strip your skin of essential oils and moisture, so you won’t break out or dry out in the process.
Tatcha The Essence
Tatcha
The Hadsei-3 Complex is one of Tatcha’s favorite ingredients- combined of fermented rice, algae, and green tea, which are core staples in Japanese diets. This Essence does it all: supports natural cell turnover in skin, helps support your skin barrier and retain moisture, plumps and protects from premature aging, and so much more. A miracle in a bottle.
Tatcha The Silk Canvas Primer
Tatcha
Again, the cutest packaging in the world. A primer formulated without parabens for your eyes, lips, and face, with or without makeup, you’ll find benefits for the Silk Primer. A rice sized amount is good for your whole face, it gives a filter-finish by helping texture, brighten the surface, and soften your skin. It also helps give you a crease-less finish on your makeup and fights aging.
Tatcha Hinoki Body Care Trio
Tatcha
What I like to call the “Spa Trio” because of its relaxing essential oil scent, this trifecta has the Forest Awakening Body Wash, Body Milk, and Body Oil. If your skin is in need of moisturization and you need to release some stress- this is the set for you.
Tatcha Indigo Overnight Repair
Tatcha
A serum-in-a-cream meant for sensitive skin- this is truly the best night cream I’ve ever put on my face. After a single use, I was hooked. My skin felt smooth and had a radiance that no product has given me before. It balances your skin’s microbiome, strengthens the skin barrier, and calms redness. If you purchase one product, it’s this.
