Inspired by Japan - My first impression of Tatcha's "Ritual Discovery Kit"

As you may know by now, I am obsessed with Tatcha - a Japanese inspired skincare brand founded by Victoria Tsai.
I've already written a review of their amazing "Kyoto Red" lipstick here.

For those who've missed it, Tatcha is a luxury skincare brand inspired by geisha beauty rituals. Victoria Tsai visited Kyoto and met beautiful Japanese geishas, which then led her to discover a "world of pure beauty, craftsmanship and heritage". The products I have from them are all "Made in Japan", which make me feel so proud..

Today, I'll be writing about their  "Ritual Discovery Kit" includes the following (for combination skin):
  • PURE One Step Camellia Cleansing Oil - 150 ml | 5.1 oz
  • POLISHED Classic Rice Enzyme Powder - 60 g | 2.1 oz
  • RADIANT Deep Brightening Serum - 50 ml | 1.7 oz
  • SUPPLE Moisture Rich Silk Cream - 50 ml | 1.7 oz


And as always - these are the reasons why I am in love:
  • Beautiful packaging - I mentioned this in my previous post about "Kyoto Red" and I think the photos I've posted say a thousand words. The packaging of Tatcha products have been spectacular by far. It's like opening one of those high-end Japanese traditional sweets - carefully crafted, wrapped and thought through for us, customers. Every detail counts: Colour, texture and design. This time around, the box was crafted in a way that the unboxing experience almost felt like opening a special book for the first time. Once opened, it felt as though a breeze of flower petals passed by. The purple and pink colours and images in the box created a perfect vibrant experience.

  • Online tutorials and support - For every product in this Discovery Kit, there are online tutorials on how to use it. This is incredibly comforting as a first time Tatcha user. Tatcha also talks about the ingredients being used in their products reassuring us of what is truly being used.

  • Ingredients, scent, texture and results - I'll have to get back to you on the long term results, but here's what I thought after my first couple uses.

    - Pure Camellia Cleansing Oil - Fresh scent and very soft to the skin. Blend of Camellia and Rice Bran Oil. It's hard to believe it's removing all your make up but it does a great job in doing so.

    - Polished Classic Rice Enzyme Powder - This powder is a face wash and exfoliator. The powder turns into a mild foam after blending with water. It's a very calming, relaxing exfoliator which you can tell does not harm the skin. No scent and leaves the skin smooth and fresh. It does not dry out your skin.

    - Radiant Deep Brightening Serum - Tatcha's website mentions that you could see a difference in age spots in 4-8 weeks. A fresh scented light weight cream. Does not leave the skin sticky. It's very calming.

    - Finally, the Supple Moisture Rich Silk Cream - Leaves the skin super moist and soft like a baby's bum. Fresh scented. All of the products felt soothing to my skin. I can't wait to see what it has in store for me for the next few weeks!
     

  • Inspired by Japan - When I first heard Victoria Tsai (Founder of Tatcha)'s story about building her brand, I was thankful, proud and extremely happy to hear her & Tatcha's connection to Japan - Kyoto to be specific. Tatcha has "Made in Japan" products which I think is very special being a brand founded in the USA. I love to see that "Made in Japan" text on all Tatcha boxes! 


Their "Discovery Kit" is a great place to start. Let me know if you have any questions on my Tatcha experience!
