When it comes to caring for skin, people in Japan have always placed emphasis on purification as the first step to a healthy-looking complexion. But those with oily skin will know that not just any cleanser will do. It’s tempting to reach for harsh formulas that promise a squeaky-clean feel. But these formulas often steal essential moisture, and the skin responds by producing even more oil, leaving it greasy and thus causing makeup to slip.
That’s why Tatcha created The Matcha Cleanse – the first daily clarifying gel cleanser to purify and prime the skin for makeup
The non-stripping formula decongests pores without irritation for a clear canvas while addressing makeup slip-off at the root, and controlling oil for improved makeup wear all day. The fragrance free and soap-free gel lathers into a watery foam ideal for oily and acne-prone skin.
Rooted in Japan’s time-tested home remedies for skin, this formula harnesses the same superfoods used for centuries to balance both body and complexion. – Antioxidant-rich Kyo Matcha, ceramide-like Japanese Mugwort (Yomogi), Japanese Coix Seed and Willow Bark join forces to clarify skin and control oil for a makeup-priming effect that staves off midday shine. BHA alternatives in the mix help with decongestion, making makeup application that much easier.
KEY BENEFITS
- Decongests pores without stripping or irritating the skin
- Controls sebum production, smoothens skin texture, and primes the skin to help makeup wear better throughout the day
- Rebalances skin’s moisture barrier for a supple, hydrated complexion
