Tatcha Polish Classic Rice Enzyme Powder
Is a non abrasive, water activated exfoliant made of Japanese rice bran that transforms to a creamy foam. This powder provides effective cleansing without stripping skin of moisture or breaking the skin’s barrier leaving your skin smooth with a healthy glow. The Classic is recommended for combination to dry skin. Key Ingredients:
- Japanese Rice Bran is a nonabrasive physical exfoliant rich in vitamins and proteins
- Hadasei-3™ consists of Tatcha’s Proprietary Complex of Rice, Algae, Green Tea helps restore a healthy looking radiance. - Amino acids and AHAs (lactic acid) from double fermentation to resurface and plump the skin
The texture a very finely ground rice that when activated by water it turns into a foam that is cloud like and creamy. Instructions say to use 1/2 teaspoon but I find that to be to much. I would say half of that is all you need. It cleanses and gently exfoliates the skin well, doesn’t irritate my skin. Although this says “daily physical exfoliant” and says it can be used twice a day, while gentle, I personally wouldn’t use twice day. Also the water/powder ratio is important! It helps to minimize my pores and leaves my skin feeling softer and more smooth. My only cons I have is that it contains alcohol so therefore it can leave my skin feeling slightly dry but not uncomfortably so. Once I continue with my routine my skin feels hydrated, moisturized, and has a healthy glow. My go to has always been Dermalogica Microfoliant Exfoliator and will probably remain that way considering I get more product for a cheaper price with similar results.
