Tatcha Polished Rice Enzyme Powder Question

How often do you use this? Twice daily? Once daily? Every other day?

Thank you!

I use this once per day; if I find that I'm drying out then every other day. It's a wonderful product.

It's meant to be used after the oil cleanse. They have two different versions of this: a classic and a deep, but I'm not sure what the differences are. One more exfoliating, I think.

I had a terrible reaction to this product so I would recommend once a day and do not use with a Clairsonic until you are sure your skin can tolerate it. Unfortunately, I did use it twice a day to start & with my Clairsonic. I developed what seemed like a chemical burn. My face turned red and felt hot. Another BBer had an even worse reaction than mine & she had to go to the doctor. This product has talc in it so anyone who has allergies to talc should not use the Tatcha Enyzme cleansers. I had similar type reactions to Bare Essentials but not to the same extreme so for anyone who may have felt their face itched or burned with BE, the Tatcha enzyme cleanser most likely will not work for you.

QVC lost a lot of my posts too!

I'm pretty sure the way this was demo'd was to do the oil cleansing at night and the enzyme powder by itself in the morning. I don't use Tatcha products, but use similar dupes, and adopted this method for myself after watching a couple of Tatcha spots on QVC. That said, not everyone likes to exfoliate daily, so they'll settle into their own schedule that works for them.

.When I saw this first presented, Victoria said to use the oil at night and the powder in the morning.I have never ever used the Clarisonic with the powder. The powder exfoliates enough for me. I have retired the Clarisonic as long as I am using Tatcha.. I do not use the powder at night although I wear makeup. The oil is enough. My skin is loving the combination.

Re: Tatcha Polished Rice Enzyme Powder Question

This is from the FAQs on their website: (talking about the oil cleanser)

How do I use this product?
Begin with dry hands and a dry face. Apply 1-2 pumps of the Camellia Cleansing Oil into the palm of your hand. Massaging into skin in circular motions. The oil will emulsify into a milk and spirit away makeup and impurities effortlessly. Rinse with warm water and follow with Rice Enzyme Powder.

What step in my skin care ritual is the Camellia Cleansing Oil?
This is the first step in the ritual. For best results, follow with the Polishing Powder, Deep Brightening Serum, and Moisture Rich Silk Cream.

Interesting. I wonder why the creator of the system doesn't present it this way?

I think there's also a gentle version.

JLF, she did present it that way the very first time she was on. I don't know about subsequent presentations, though. And I remembered reading the instructions when I got the sample pack.

I've read that they think American women don't take the time that other women do in oriental cultures when it comes to ritual cleansing, and so she may not stress that rice powder follow up now in her presentations.
