I remember a thread where some people compared other brands of enzyme powders like the Tatcha powder... can anyone give me some names of other brands to check out that they like?

I use the Josie Maran exfoliating powder and really like it. Not sure how it differs.

If you want another idea....

I tried plain brown rice flour...just a small bag from the market...and wow, oh wow! did it ever make my skin smooth. The only thing was it was quite hard to rinse off. So I haven't used it since. It's supposed to brighten skin, and I really don't need that, so...I'm wondering what I can make with the rest of the flour.

dermalogica. It's a "daily microfoliant" that contains green tea, papain enzyme (from papaya) and oatmeal. It's fantastic. Extremely gentle, but effective. I got mine on Amazon and you might want to take the time to read all the positive reviews there.

I am very happy with it. It's a little grainy, but I like the fact that there's no talc in it. A major plus is that you get a 4 oz. bottle for way less than you would pay for Tatcha's and it lasts a long time. The only caution I will extend is that the Fleur de Lis comes in a few different scents and unscented. The unscented still has a scent, just not a very pleasant one. To me, it smells like baby rice cereal - not intolerable, but not something I look forward to smelling either. I have a bottle that I'm trying to use up and will not buy unscented again. I've had the vanilla, and will try one of the others the next time I order.

Helpful! Thanks!
