Which Tatcha vegan skincare products should you try?
These 4 Tatcha vegan best-sellers are the perfect introduction to Japanese beauty skincare with a modern touch.
The Rice Wash Cream Cleanser
This gentle yet effective solution features a pH-neutral amino acid base that delicately cleanses and balances your skin without stripping its natural oils.
Infused with Japanese Rice Powder, this cleanser takes inspiration from a Japanese beauty ritual, known as the “first wash of rice”: after rinsing rice in preparation for cooking, the leftover milky water is used for its skincare benefits.
This formula also includes Hyaluronic Acid and the brand’s proprietary Okinawa Algae Blend to ensure a “plumping” effect and revitalised complexion.
RRP: £41 - Find it on Tatcha, Sephora or Space NK
The Clarifying Clay Mask
This powerful treatment revitalises your skin in just 3 minutes. Infused with Japanese volcanic ash, this mask creates a gentle warming sensation to open pores and effectively draw out excess oil, sebum and dirt.
Japanese konjac, a natural root vegetable, provides gentle exfoliation to reduce pore congestion and promote a smoother complexion. Additionally, Okinawa Kucha Clay, rich in minerals, absorbs excess oil and detoxifies the skin.
The result? Clear skin and radiant complexion from within.
RRP: £70 - Find it on Tatcha, Sephora or Space NK
The Essence
This luxurious skincare elixir is powered by 100% Hadasei-3™, am exclusive blend of double-fermented Akita rice, Uji green tea and Okinawa algae.
Each ingredient in this trio is celebrated for its skin-loving properties: rice for its moisturising amino acids, green tea for its protective antioxidants and algae for its revitalszing minerals.
Together, they work in harmony to promote natural skin renewal, improve texture and deliver deep hydration, leaving your noticeably softer and more radiant.
RRP: £102 - Find it on Tatcha or Sephora
The Water Cream
This premium, lightweight moisturiser instantly delivers a burst of hydrating nutrients and pore-refining botanicals, leaving your skin smooth, balanced and refreshed without any sticky or greasy residue.
Infused with pure Japanese botanicals like wild rose and leopard lily, this cream visibly tightens pores, controls excess oil and calms the skin, while the Hadasei-3™ trinity of fermented Japanese superfoods restores a healthy radiance.
Additionally, a touch of 23-karat gold imparts a subtle, shine-free glow, providing the perfect finishing touch for a luminous complexion.
RRP: £67 - Find it on Tatcha, Sephora or Space NK
