In their words

I have been trying out some new skincare as my skin is changing as I age and I'd heard good things about Tatcha so gave this a go. I'm not sure my skin has ever felt so clean and soft without feeling stripped after one use of a cleanser before! I was quite surprised and impressed. You don't need much product so it's lasting several months. It is easy to use both in and out of the shower and gently

If you're someone who have combination skin and your face parts than the T-zone are more on drier side be careful especially if your skin can't bare gentle exfoliation everyday. After every 3-4 uses I would breakout. I gave break and tried again same thing repeated. This is because my skin felt this cleanser little bit harsh.
