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-honoured 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.

Reviews

Great product!!

"I really like the Tatcha Foam Cleanse, it really has become part of my everyday routine!! It's gentle on the skin, no tightness or dryness after, and my face genuinely feels clean. The foam itself is lovely too, soft and light, not harsh at all. Would definitely recommend it, especially if you have sensitive skin."

cleans well

"complimentary from tatcha I really liked this cleansing gel. It lathers well, gently cleanses my skin, and doesn't leave a dry feeling after use. After just a few weeks, I noticed my skin looked fresher and my pores were less visible. I especially like that it helps control shine without irritating my skin. I'll definitely be buying it again."

It leaves my skin feeling squeaky clean, removing all buildup and also calming my skin and reducing any irritation. I recommend this cleanser and it has a light scent, I love how it transforms once you lather it and really looks like green foamy matcha."

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!"

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."
