Angela B. (5/5)

So amazing

"I used to wonder why everyone in Japan raves about rice-based skincare ingredients and I know why now 😍 it’s so foamy and creamy, honestly so satisfying to use"

Ophelie (5/5)

Soft, Gentle, and Surprisingly Luxe

"The Rice Wash Soft Cream Cleanser has quickly become one of those products I genuinely look forward to using. It has the loveliest soft cream texture that feels calming and luxurious on the skin, while still cleansing properly without leaving my face feeling stripped or tight afterwards. My skin feels clean, smooth, and comfortable every time I use it, and it gives that fresh, healthy feel without over-drying. It’s gentle enough for everyday use but still leaves your skin feeling refreshed and cared for. Such a beautiful cleanser if you love skincare that feels effective but also really comforting on the skin."

I’m not surprised this is a bestseller! 😀

"I’m not surprised this is a bestseller — the Tatcha Rice Wash really lives up to the hype. It gently cleanses and lightly exfoliates without drying out the skin. My skin feels soft, smooth, and balanced after every use. It also has a subtle, clean scent and a luxurious feel. A bit pricey, but worth it for a daily cleanser."
