"It absorbs nicely with no cast. Unfortunately, I didn't realize it was made with Avobenzone, Octisalate and Homosalate which are not great ingredients known to cause hormone disruption. I'll make sure to get a mineral based sunscreen next time."
"I have used so many sunscreens, that looked white, thick or made my skin breakout. This is the best sunscreen that I have ever used! I use it on my face, arms and hands. I wish it came in a larger size or body lotion. I sometimes use it as my daily moisturizer. It leaves my skin soft and not tacky."
"I really wanted to love this product! I’ve been using the silky mineral sunscreen, and I loved the tinted version. I was very excited that this product offered healing properties as well. I’ve just about finished this bottle, and I have been sunburnt at least four times on my face while wearing this…even after re-application. I also noticed an increased in sun sensitivity. Not sure if it just doesn’t play well with my other products, but super bummed! Will not be purchasing again"
"Fabulous. A little goes a long way. I used this all summer and under the Mediterranean sun. Protected my skin wonderfully. Not a single burn, nor did I peel. Silky smooth on the skin. Not tacky or drying."
"The way this sunscreen absorbs into the skin is unreal. I have been on the market looking for a sunscreen like this and finally found it. I have tried so many, and all of them felt so greasy and on top of my skin, making me feel sticky. The Tatcha Milky Sunscreen is the complete opposite, and it just blends beautifully. Also, a major plus is that it plays so well with any type of makeup. . . I had problems with my makeup peeling off if I wore sunscreen; now I don't have this issue. Worth the purchase. And about the fragrance? It is nothing crazy or "perfumy"; it just smells like every other Tatcha product, very faint and soothing."
"I love Tatcha products, but this is not the one for me. It’s very liquidy when it comes out and doesn’t feel nearly as good going on as the Silken sunscreen. I was really excited for the Milky due to my age and sun damaged face but I’m going back to my old reliable."
"This is the only sunscreen that doesn’t make me break out. This is a super lightweight non greasy sunscreen that actually works. It is worth"
"I had an allergic reaction to this SPF unfortunately. My temples and neck had red patchy textured skin that itched and burned. I have no idea which ingredient caused this. Also, the product formulation separates."
"Applies like a dream! So smooth and lightweight without that “heavy” feel with other sunscreens. My new favorite!"
"It’s not too greasy, great moisturizer and sunscreen, works well for medium-dark skin tone as well."
In this conversation, Tatcha Global Ambassador Kiko Mizuhara opens up about the intersection of skin and mind—how caring for her body has become a way of caring for her emotions, too. She talks candidly about learning to define her own worth after years of seeking it elsewhere, what Japan's contrasts of softness and intensity have taught her about beauty, and what ritual, rest, and self-acceptance look like for her today.
Sunscreen protects the skin from UV rays, but it is proven to also protect the skin barrier by shielding it from free radicals and preventing dehydration (from repeated sun exposure). However, some modern sunscreen formulas include additional ingredients that can actually repair and strengthen the skin barrier while also shielding from UVA and UVB rays. Look for ingredients that tout their reparative nature, like ectoin, alongside SPF 30+ formulas, to ensure skin is protected while it repairs.
Many moisturizers hydrate, but the right formula can also impart a dewy glow. These options actually work to get the skin naturally glowing over time, which is exactly what Tatcha’s dewy moisturizers accomplish. These formulas are powered by Hadasei-3, a potent and proprietary complex formulated to hydrate, gently resurface, and even make the products applied afterwards work better. Tatcha has many moisturizers, but two specific formulas that embrace dewiness: The Dewy Skin Cream and The Dewy Milk Moisturizer.
