Feels like loyalty!

"The Akari Gold Massager does wonders to my skin. My skin never felt that soft before. I’ve always struggled with puffy eyes, but the Akari Gold Massager takes out all the puffiness."

Wendy L. (5/5)

Luxury feels good!

"Treated myself to the Akari Gold Massager! I put it in the refrigerator and try to use it often. I am not sure what the benefits are, but my skin has never looked or felt better! I am a Tatcha girl forever!"

Tracey B. (5/5)

What a waste of money

"Horrible. Do. NOT. BUY. For about the price tag you’d think that these massage Wands would hold up better, I purchased to use on my clients, I’m an esthetician but now I’m truly embarrassed to whip them out. . what I waste I purchased not 1 but 2 >:/"

Good alternative to keep face toned

"I had significant health issues and as a result of my treatment my weight fluctuated greatly. After weight loss my skin on my face was sagging. I went to a dermatologist and they recommended laser skin tightening. I did some of those treatments. They were costly, a little painful, but there were results. A couple of years later, I noticed the same thing happened. I started using this massager. I am now into being gentler on my skin and using more natural methods. This boosts circulation and my skin is softer in addition to helping with tone. If you are disciplined with this, you will see results. I have only used it at at room temperature, and gently since my body had been through so much, but my face loves it."

So gorgeous!

"This arrived today (a special birthday treat for myself!) and it is just stunning. The tiny imperfections in the golden surface just cement that its not some form of paint, but rather a real sheet of gold leafing, I rushed right over to get a cup of hot water to put it in, so i could try it out with the Yuyake evening massage. Gentle heated bliss. I can tell I will also be using this when i have sinus pain issues and want a quick warm therapy."

Denise (5/5)

5 star product!

"Beautiful (as are all things Tatcha) and perfect for facial massage. I found Tatcha a couple of years ago and am really pleased with all products I've ordered. Gorgeous packaging, amazing customer service, exceptional products . . . love, love, love all things Tatcha! The redesigned Akari massager is an integral part of my am and pm facial routine. Highly recommend this item!"

Cynthia (5/5)

Amazing gift!

"My sister bought this for me because she knew I was pining after it after seeing it in a magazine, but I couldn't justify the price. It was the best gift I got this year, maybe ever! I've used it every day to help wake up in the morning, and it actually makes my face look noticeably less puffy after just a couple of minutes. Maybe I'll give one to my mom for Mother's Day. . ."

Olivia S. (5/5)

Meditate with this massager!

"Purchased this to add to my daily Tatcha rituals. The massager is beautiful both in aesthetic and quality. I find it to be a lovely form of meditation morning and evening or whenever I need a moment to soothe and refresh."

Anonymous (5/5)

Love this!

"I splurged on this as a birthday gift for myself and what a treat. I use this before I go to sleep and when I wake up in the morning. I'll most likely buy a second one to keep at room temperature but I have to say, I really love this massager."

Anonymous (5/5)

I prefer the old massager.

"To be honest, I kind of prefer the old Chrystal Akari Massager more. I wonder if they still have it. But nevertheless, this massager looks so fancy."

Q&A

Long time user of Tatcha here and i was a bit curious. Where is this product made? Where was the wooden box it comes in made? Can you explain what the thermal core is? Im interested in buying about a half dozen for a bridal party . Thank you for your time.
This item is made of a proprietary blend of skin-safe metals and coated with gold leaf. Everything is made in Japan. We hope this helps.
I don’t think this work for me I had it almost 3 yrs I don’t don’t see any different???
Thank you for reaching out! We are sorry it was not ideal for you! Unfortunately, we can only accept returns within 90 days of purchase. If you have any questions about the item that we can assist you with, feel free to email our team at customercare@tatcha.com.
Are there any Tatcha products you would not recommend this be used with? I understand some richer creams help this glide better but will any products damage the tool?
We like to recommend using any item that leaves skin a bit glossy with moisture so the tool can glide. A few standouts for this are the Ageless Revitalizing Eye Cream, Ageless Renewal Cream, Dewy Skin Cream, or Camellia Beauty Oil.
Will it be OKAY to leave the Massager inside the Fridge? Just take it out the next day to use it again?
You can certainly leave the massager in the refrigerator so that it can be used the day after.
Can you use any of your other moisturizers with this? I know water cream is out, but what about Dewy, Silk, or Indigo? Could you also use this at night after the camellia oil? Also, if you use the neck cream, do you use massager before or after?
Thank you for asking! We suggest using this with a moisturizer that leaves skin with a glossy, plump feel so that the massager can glide effortlessly over the skin without friction. The Ageless Enriching Renewal Cream or a generous application of the Dewy Skin Cream would work best. You can also apply the Ageless Revitalizing Neck Cream before using the massager as well. We hope this helps!

The Best Lightweight Sunscreen for Your Face
The Best Lightweight Sunscreen for Your Face

Sunscreen used to be considered thick, pore-clogging, and opaque white — but today’s iterations are impressively different. Modern sunscreen is lightweight, nearly invisible, and can actually improve the look and feel of skin. A lightweight feel is not only sensorially important, but it also helps to make the experience of wearing it more enjoyable, while encouraging you to use it daily. It’s a pleasure to use, rather than a chore.

Oily vs. Glowy Skin: How to Tell The Difference (And Get the Glow)

While oily skin and glowy skin can seem similar, they are distinctively different. Oily skin is from an overproduction of sebum from the sebaceous glands, while glowing skin gives off a natural radiance from a balanced, hydrated, and healthy skin barrier. There’s nothing wrong with oily skin, and, with a few specific products, you can take excessive oiliness and transform it into glowing, dewy skin. Utilize balancing cleansers, lightweight moisturizers, and oil-absorbing primers to help look more glowy than oily.

4 Transformative Benefits of Using the Best Face Essence

An ancient staple in Japan, essences are finally gaining popularity in the US. An essence is a watery liquid infused with skin-benefiting active ingredients that can hydrate, brighten, firm, and more. An essence is pressed into the skin after cleansing and before serums and moisturizers, and is designed for daily use. Some of the best essences for the face have dramatic benefits, including hydrating, plumping, reducing the appearance of wrinkles (as effectively as a retinol), and making the rest of your skincare products work better.
