The timeless art of matcha

Matcha is a central piece of the artful tea ritual that anchors well-being in Japan. Just as the act of whisking matcha restores the senses, cleansing becomes an act of renewal, washing away stress and restoring balance to skin and mind.

Inspired by Awa Sengan

In Japan, washing your face with care is the most important part of your beauty ritual. This time-honored technique involves whisking your cleanser into a soft, cloud-like cushion of foam that gently but deeply cleanses your pores. This mindful step begins a daily act of self-love, restoring softness and balance to the skin and mind.

The science of surfactants in our ultra-fine foam

The formula features a smart cleansing system built around four mild, amino acid–based surfactants. Working in synergy, these surfactants generate a luxurious foam made of ultra-fine bubbles that mimics the foam of freshly whisked matcha. Together they form mixed micelles that effectively trap and lift away impurities while preserving the skin’s natural barrier.

Great for oily skin type

"(gifted by tatcha)Such a great cleanser for my oily combination skin type. I struggle with enlarged pores and a very oily T zone, so cleansers like this that have a good lather and foam are perfect to remove all impurities without leaving the skin feeling stripped of all natural oils. 100% recommend it!!!"

The dreamiest gel-to-foam texture ever!

"gifted by tatcha I’m obsessed with the texture of this Tatcha Matcha Foam Cleanse! Watching the vibrant gel lather into an ultra-fine, dense foam is so satisfying. Beyond the beautiful experience, its cleansing performance is flawless—it effortlessly melts away oil and impurities. It’s also incredibly gentle; I noticed immediate calming effects on my skin, with less redness and zero irritation. After washing, my skin just feels clean, smooth, and deeply comfortable. It’s an absolute must-have!"

Good

"I’ve been really enjoying this cleanser. It leaves my skin feeling clean without that tight, stripped feeling that some foaming cleansers give. The foam is soft and creamy, and my face feels fresh, smooth, and balanced after every wash. It’s quickly become one of those products I actually look forward to using. Gifted by tatcha"

Katya (5/5)

Works great!

"I love this cleanser! The scent is light and clean, so it’s consistent with the brand. The bottle is also a pretty large size! The cleanser is a gel at first, but when you massage it into the skin with water it becomes a dense but fluffy foam. My skin feels so clean after each use! This was gifted by Tatcha."

Olivia B. (5/5)

I also noticed less redness around my cheeks after consistent use. Definitely a new favorite in my skincare routine. gifted by tatcha"

New fave cleanser!

"gifted by tatcha I love this gel-to-foam cleanser. I normally experience redness and sensitivity at times, but this doesn’t irritate my skin at all. A little goes a long way here; it creates a nice, ultra-fine foam. My face feels and looks so clean and fresh after using this. It doesn’t leave my skin tight or dry but helps really remove oil and impurities from my face. My skin looks radiant and feels so soft after using this. Definitely adding this to my routine!"

Luxurious Cleanser That Leaves Skin Soft

"Complimentary from Tatcha. I’ve been testing this cleanser for about a week, and I’ve really enjoyed using it. The gel transforms into a soft, rich foam, and a little goes a long way. It cleanses well without leaving my skin feeling tight or stripped. After each use, my skin feels clean, comfortable, and balanced. I also noticed that my skin looks smoother and more refreshed after cleansing, with a softer, velvety feel. The subtle herbal scent is pleasant and not overpowering. The packaging is beautiful and feels luxurious, making this cleanser a joy to use."

Uma (5/5)

Its rich, foamy lather effectively removes dirt, oil, and light makeup while providing a gentle cleansing experience.

It works well for daily cleansing and leaves the complexion looking brighter and smoother. gifted by tatcha"

Is Matcha Good for Acne?

Matcha is a special type of finely powdered green tea prized for its bright green hue, distinct cultivation practices, ceremonial preparation, and transformative health benefits.

The Best Foaming Facial Cleanser
The Best Foaming Facial Cleanser

Foaming cleansers can be effective for all, but the secret to using them correctly is discovering a formula that is ideal for your skin type. A creamy foaming cleanser, which imparts a soft hydration onto the skin as cleansing, is more ideal for dry skin, while a refreshing foaming cleanser that includes oil-balancing ingredients is more ideal for combination and oily skin tones. Some formulas work by allowing the dense bubbles to grasp onto debris, sebum, and makeup, washing away in a single step. While other formulas might need an oil cleanser first to break down these trickier long-lasting ingredients.
