It’s a good week for veteran skincare sleuths, because the Tatcha Skincare UK launch has finally happened. You may not have heard of skincare brand Tatcha until today, but it’s the biggest buzz name in beauty right now - and a brand for all skin types worth getting acquainted with.
Already a firm favourite in the United States, and loved by an impressive roster of A-listers including Doja Cat and Selena Gomez, Tatcha takes inspiration from the ancient beauty rituals of the geishas in Kyoto, Japan, to offer a simple yet effective skincare offering that strengthens the skin barrier, detoxifies the pores, and reduces inflammation.
“These timeless rituals of well-being, anchored in kind-to-skin preparations of plants grown in the nutrient-rich soils and seas of Japan, transformed my skin and soul," says Vicky Tsai, founder. "With a team of talented people, I created Tatcha to transform your skincare rituals into moments of self compassion that help you deeply reconnect with your true needs.”
Tatcha's transformative powers are all down to the brand's proprietary blend of core ingredients, including Okinawa Red Algae, double-fermented Akita Rice and Uji Green Tea, which acts as the foundation for all of their products. Named Hadasei-3, the unique complex finds its roots in the nutrient-dense Japanese diet, which is often considered the healthiest in the world, and is clinically proven to help replenish and strengthen the microbiome while providing instant and long-lasting hydration.
And it works. Tatcha The Essence – the brand's skin-plumping primer – has repeatedly sold out in American since its launch in 2017 due to its abilities to save parched, dry skin overnight, while the Violet-C Brightening Serum – a vitamin C-packed wonder-worker for tired-looking complexions – has garnered hundreds upon hundreds of five-star reviews. You may also have heard whispers of The Rice Polish, a classic foaming enzyme powder cleanser available in classic, light and deep, and the epic Tatcha The Dewy Skin Cream.
Tatcha launched on Tatcha.co.uk on 4th May with a selection of the brand's bestsellers, including The Camellia Cleansing Oil, The Kissu Lip Mask, Tatcha The Silk Cream, The Dewy Serum, The Silk Peony eye cream and Original Aburatorigami Blotting Papers, much to skincare fanatics' delight. You’ll then be able to pick up a range of the brand’s bestsellers at Space NK later this month.
