POPSUGAR UK is abuzz with the news that Tatcha skincare will be launching via SpaceNK. Of course, Tatcha has been available in Australia via MECCA for some time now – but it’s never a bad time to revisit their best skincare products if you’re thinking of making an investment.
Tatcha skincare was founded by Vicky Tsai in 2009. After having the opportunity to leave her corporate job and travel to Japan, Tsai learned about a culture of harmony and beauty that inspired the philosophy behind Tatcha. Through her research with scientists, geishas, and cultural advisors, she created modern formulations of timeless Japanese skincare rituals that use effective, but gentle ingredients like Hadasei-3. An ingredient that is unique to Tatcha, Hadasei-3 consists of a complex of double-fermented rice and contains natural moisturising proteins to support healthy barrier function. It also contains green tea, which helps to neutralise oxidative free radicals and visibly reduce signs of premature ageing. Finally, the algae is packed with skin-plumping polysaccharides and have been used for centuries to nurture the skin due to its moisture-retaining properties.
Whilst pushing boundaries and challenging innovation in skincare, Tatcha remains true to its roots and traditions all the while catering to the demands of modern life. The brand’s price range is from mid-high end to luxury – so which products are worth your cash? Keep reading for 11 of the best Tatcha skincare products, as voted by POPSUGAR UK’s editors.
