Reviews

good exfoliater, just too pricey

"It’s a very good exfoliater and I had no issues regarding it. It does what it says and it’s fun to turn it from powder to liquid. My pores appear smaller and my skin feels very clean when I use it. My only issue is that it’s the only tatcha product I’ve used that doesnt feel luxurious for the price. I’ve used this brands creams, cleansers, and serums, and all of them feel very luxurious and worth the price. This one just didnt hold up to that standard i formed from using their other products."

Bella U. (4/5)

Amazing!

"It really does ""polish"" my skin! I love the smooth, silky feel after using this product."

Sally P. (5/5)

Great exfoliate

"Makes my skin look renewed immediately. Removes dead skin making my complexion look fresh and vibrant."

Antwoinette G. (5/5)

Great product

"Great product"

Lorena R. (5/5)

"I love this cleanser. My skin feels soft and refreshed. It doesn’t leave my face feeling dry."

Lisa T. (5/5)

"cleans away skin debris, gets everything out without the dryness."

Amira A. (5/5)

Love

"Love this polishhh does a great job exfoliating!!!"

Rosaisela D. (5/5)

It's fine. . .

"I purchased 3 types of the Rice Polish (gentle, classic, deep). Unfortunately, I didn't completely realize that these weren't actual physical facial SCRUBS. They're just powdered cleansers (no physical exfoliation). . . that supposedly offer some chemical exfoliation? I noticed zero exfoliation when I used these cleansers. For that reason alone, I ill not repurchase. Some of these reviews are pretty funny. They made wrinkles 'disappear'? Sure Jan. They work fine as a cleanser. I do find them convenient for my gym bag and travel (no liquid leaking risk)."

Katherine M. (3/5)

Luxurious! Japanese skin care done right

"This has to be my 10th time buying this. I love it so much. It’s a game changer and there is nothing else out there that works this well for my acne prone skin. I’m getting older and what you put on your skin matters more now than ever. Japanese skin care the way to go and Tatcha products are luxurious and great quality. My skin feels clean and soft after and the water cream after is to die for. My skin has never looked better. I don’t use anything else and always for it for Christmas You won’t be disappointed."

Nicole (5/5)

Love it!

"I purchased a routine from tatcha and this was part of it. It leaves my face feeling clean and soft. In conjunction with the other items o have seen quite an improvement on my skins texture and overall health."

Q&A

Is the mini size refillable?
The inner cap is removable so you can refill. If you need any tips on how to open the inner cap, please contact customercare@tatcha.com
Does this product expire?? Mine looks green and it has a scent of algae!
Thank you for sharing this feedback. Please email customercare@tatcha.com so we can better understand what is happening with this product.
I have oily acne prone skin and use retinol and benzoyl peroxide products to address that. As a result, my skin is a little dry. However, I do want a product to reduce pore size and brighten skin. Would Rice polish deep too harsh? Should I consider classic instead?
The Rice Polish Deep will be perfectly gentle on the skin and not cause any additional dryness as it helps keep moisture locked in while you exfoliate. We hope you will love it!
I am looking for an exfoliating product for tighter pores & better texture. Which product should I get the rice polish deep or the texture tonic & what is the difference between the 2?
Both formulas will help exfoliate and improve the texture of your skin. The Rice Polish is a daily exfoliating cleanser which you can use both day and night. The Texture Tonic is a toner treatment which we suggest using 2-3 times a week. If you need more assistance, please email customercare@tatcha.com.
How is this one different from the classic? I have tried the classic and I love it! Is this one a deeper exfoliate?
Hello! Classic is ideal for normal to combination skin and contains pearl that helps condition the skin while you exfoliate. The Deep is ideal for oily/acne prone skin and helps to minimize pore appearance and breakouts. 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
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.
