Reviews

Silken Sunscreen

"I have used this product since Brad and others began Tatcha. It is the only sunscreen that does not cause “white bumps” on my face. Hugh I do enhance the effect around my eyes with a special opthomolic sunscreen safe for dry eye ands stronger."

— Karen M. (5/5)

"Love this sunscreen as an oily skinned individual. I wear moisturizer and this sunscreen only on the daily, and this smooths over my skin nicely and my skin isn’t nearly as slick and sticky throughout the day. I have tried others but always come back to this one."

— Andrea (5/5)

Best sunscreen for face I've ever used

"I have been using this sunscreen for several years. I love its texture (non-greasy). It blends in and leaves no white residue and can double as a primer. The protection is very long-lasting."

— Nancy B. (5/5)

Like it a lot

"Like it a lot. There is no heaviness feeling on the skin as some other sunscreens make skin feels. Perfect is for me."

— Elena L. (5/5)

Love this sunscreen- don't know what I'd do without it

"My skin is well protected and gives me confidence to be out in our strong sun at high elevation. The lotion is very moisturizing and I live the consistency- easy to apply and get even coverage"

— Eileen F. (5/5)

Not exceptional

"This sunscreen is perfectly fine. However, it is not water resistant and it also has a faint but persistent chemical smell that my mineral sunscreens do not have which bothered me enough for me to wipe it off before a day was over. It smells like your typical chemical sunscreen. This is a combo chemical and mineral sunscreen. For the cost per oz. it is not worth it for me. I'd rather buy a more moderately priced sunscreen that is water resistant, especially in the summer time due to sweat and water activities, that does not have an unpleasant odor. Brands like Cerave and Tizo offer really good mineral sunscreens for a much better value."

— Stephanie A. (3/5)

Best mineral sunscreen

"It doesn’t leave a white cast on my skin and keeps me from getting sun burned. Apply generously and allows for it to sit on the skin for a few minutes before going in with makeup."

— Mary K. (5/5)

Oily skin

"So I have super oily skin and this is the only sunscreen that doesn’t look get all dewy / cast looking or feeling gross after application. I seldomly write reviews also but this one deserves 10 stars and if your an oily babe like me , try it out and see if it helps you too."

— Tennesi R. (5/5)

Love the texture

"This is my favorite sunscreen. No sticky residue; no matte chalkiness; and it works."

— Jill W. (5/5)

The Product tester

"This sunscreen goes on very smoothly!! Love the feel and the end results of no shine and a natural finish."

— Antoinette R. (5/5)

Q&A

Is this sunscreen non-comedogenic?
Hello! While this product is not tested for comedogenicity it is free of ingredients that would potentially clog pores.
Can this be used all over the body or is it for face/neck only?
Thank you for reaching out. The Silk Sunscreen SPF 35 was created with protecting the face and neck in mind.
If expiration date has passed, is sunscreen still effective?
If a sunscreen is past its expiration date, it is not recommended for use. The effectiveness to protect against UV rays can be significantly reduced.
Should I use makeup remover to remove sunscreen after applying it?
Any of our cleansers will remove your sunscreen at the end of the day. Choose based on your skin type and texture preference. If you need help choosing one for yourself, feel free to email our team at customercare@tatcha.com and they will guide you.
Can either of your sunscreens be mixed with any of your moisturizers? If this is done, will it make the sunscreen less effective?
For best results, apply your moisturizer first then layer a sunscreen over the top. It is not recommended to mix the sunscreen with a moisturizer.

Dewy Skin Cream Dupe
Dewy Skin Cream Dupe

Dupes have never been more popular, but we believe you get what you pay for. They can be wonderful for some types of products, but with a lack of clinical testing, proven ingredients, and proprietary formulas, we worry skincare dupes aren’t worth the lesser price tag.  Many have tried to dupe Tatcha’s beloved Dewy Skin Cream, but there’s a reason they can never compete with the original: Hadasei-3.  This proprietary formula is the secret to why the moisturizer (and all other Tatcha moisturizers) feel so decadent and hydrating, and why it’s undupable.  If price is the barrier, you have better options than a dupe: Start with the mini, refill instead of repurchasing, and use Subscribe and Save once it earns a permanent place in your routine.

The Best Face Products for Dewy Skin
The Best Face Products for Dewy Skin

Dewy skin is popular for good reason: it appears luminous, hydrated, fresh, and naturally radiant.  Tatcha has spent more than a decade researching and formulating skincare designed to support hydrated, naturally radiant skin. The best products for dewy skin depend on your skin type, preferred texture, and desired benefit. Essences can help prepare and soften skin, serums provide targeted hydration, moisturizers seal in moisture, mists offer an immediate refresh, and face oils add finishing radiance.  You do not need every dewy skincare product to create a luminous finish. Start with a moisturizer suited to your skin type, then add an essence, serum, mist, or face oil based on the level of hydration, texture, and radiance you prefer.

Achieve Dewy Skin With These Hydration & Oil Control Tips
Achieve Dewy Skin With These Hydration & Oil Control Tips

The key to dewy skin is proper exfoliation, oil control, and drenching the skin in multiple layers of hydration-focused skincare. To achieve dewy skin, exfoliate regularly and apply successive layers of hydrating products in the following order: essence, serum, moisturizer, and finally either sunscreen (in the daytime) or facial oil (in the evening).  If your skin tends to get oily, managing excess shine can help maintain a dewy rather than greasy-looking finish. Use oil-absorbing products that manage long-term oil production, then blotting papers to temper oil throughout the day.  Dewy skin can’t be achieved without a healthy lifestyle, though: restful sleep, eating a well-balanced diet, and managing stress not only make your skin more radiant, but also contribute to overall health and well-being.
