Review: Tatcha's Indigo Soothing Rice Enzyme Powder - For Sensitive Skin

Greetings, my friends,

Bottom Line - this is my go-to enzyme exfoliant! I use this almost everyday.

Tatcha:

Tatcha is an American beauty company founded by CEO Victoria Tsai in 2009. Their skincare products are rooted in geisha beauty practices and focus on powerful natural ingredients, such as abaca leaf, green tea, seaweed, red algae, oatmeal, rice bran, and Japanese wild roses. Tatcha employs scientists in both the US and Japan to create products from scratch using these ingredients, which led to the foundation of their products - Hadasei-3™, a trinity of anti-aging superfoods born from the Japanese diet, and the basis for the original geisha beauty rituals: green tea, rice and algae. Every ingredient is carefully selected and minimally manipulated to be gentle and safe with maximum effectiveness.  In short - their principle is quality products that focus on less doing more.

Tatcha's Indigo Soothing Rice Enzyme Powder - For Sensitive Skin:

This is amazing! The first time I used this I thought it fell into the physical exfoliant category because it's a powder, but when you add water to it - it starts to foam up and is one of the best enzyme exfoliants I've ever used. It's gentle and effective and I highly recommend it for any skin-type. As I've said before - I have oily skin, but I find that using gentle exfoliants (even those designed for sensitive skin) is the best practice to avoid causing extra sebum production. After I use it, I can feel that my skin is clean, but it's not squeaky clean - which to me means that it's doing what I need it to do and the result is clean baby soft skin.

Stats:
This costs $65 for 60g (2.1 oz) or $15 for 10g or (.35oz). You only need about a 1/2 teaspoon to treat your face and neck which means that either size will last a long time. 

You can buy this on Tatcha's website (www.tatcha.com), but it is also available at Sephora, QVC, Barney's (you know it's expensive if it's available at Barney's), and JCPenny's. QVC has the best price point, but Tatcha has the best freebies with purchase. So it depends on what you're looking for when you go to purchase. Personally, I love me some freebies. 

I do not recommend buying high-end beauty products from Amazon or eBay. While I love Amazon and eBay and most sellers are legitimate with quality products - beauty products tend to be highly susceptible to fraud. If you're going to spend your hard earned money, make sure you're buying what you think you're buying. 


That's it. Let me know if you have any questions.

Review: 6 Different SokoGlam Sheet Masks

Greetings, my friends! Bottom Line  - I would buy almost every mask again with the exception of the E-Nature mask. E-Nature: Per SokoGlam.com, E-Nature was founded on the principle of creating breakthrough formulas for your skin by fusing cutting-edge Korean technology with the safest and most effective natural ingredients. E-Nature's Squeeze Green Watery Sheet Mask: This mask was "okay." It's a cotton mask soaked in watery essence (not goo) which felt nice and cool on my face, but I didn't see any difference other than that it slightly hydrated my skin. It's meant to treat excess sebum, but I didn't notice a difference either. This costs $2.50, but I don't think I'll buy it again. Klavuu: Per SokoGlam.com, Klavuu is Korea's first marine pearl cosmetic brand that infuses natural pearl, essential oils, and marine plant extracts into their signature formulas. Natural pearls will enrich, hydrate, and firm the skin, for the most ra...

Review: Dermalogica's Oil Free Matte SPF 30

Greetings, my friends! Bottom Line  - this is a great matte daytime lotion which I think is worth a try for someone looking for a new lotion. Dermalogica : Dermalogica is an American skincare company founded by Jane and Rey Wurwand in 1986. However, before the first Dermalogica products were made - in 1983, Jane, a U.K. trained skin therapist, opened "The International Dermal Institute" for licensed skin therapists to teach hands-on postgraduate level skincare training. Realizing there weren't products on the market which matched what she was teaching, Jane and Rey established Dermalogica. They decided they wanted a p roduct line free of common irritants and ingredients which they felt led to breakouts, such as lanolin, SD alcohol, mineral oil, artificial colors, and fragrances - and that's exactly what they ended up creating. Dermalogica Oil Free Matte SPF 30 : This is a great light daytime lotion. Not only does it  soak in quickly and leaves a matte-ish s...
