Brightening & Dark Circle Reduction

People in Japan have long believed that a true healthy glow comes from deep within.

They often turned to nutrient-rich ingredients from the kitchen to nurture their bodies and complexions. Japanese plum (nanko ume), known as the queen of plums, was once used in at-home beauty rituals to help brighten skin, creating an inner glow referred to as kagayaki.

Reviews

A solid No for me

"I really love most Tatcha products, but not this one. I found it to be super greasy to the point where I can’t use it during the daytime. But the worst part is the smell. I can smell it for probably an hour or two after applying and it’s not pleasant to me."

Surprising Treasure

"Received this as a free gift with order; really didn't think I would like it. I usually do not use eye creams at all, but this just makes the skin around my eyes feel so nice and rejuvenated.

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.
