A while ago I wrote about the Tatcha Ritual Discovery Set I reviewed the cleansing oil and the rice powder for sensitive skin. In this post I mentioned that I would get back and talk more about the cream and the serum that the set included. Till now I have not reviewed the cream and the serum. The reason for this was because I have very sensitive skin and I was not really happy with the results. I was not able to point at one of the products to say which one of them caused me irritations.
Over half a year ago (maybe more) Tatcha came out with a new line for very sensitive skin. This made me curious. I decided to give Tatcha's new line for sensitive skin a try to see if this works better for me. I have ordered the discovery set for 59 US Dollars to test and feel if the products suit my needs.
The series for sensitive skin consists of the classic cleansing oil, the indigo rice powder, the deep hydration firming serum (the other series contain a brightening serum) and the indigo triple recovery cream.
The cleansing oil I already reviewed here.
The series contains a rice powder like all of Tatcha's other series. It is called Indigo smoothing rice enzyme powder. It is blue and has no scent.
As all Tatcha's rice powders it needs to be in contact with a few drops of water to foam up. Then you can massage it gently onto your face for a few seconds. The rice powder is washed off with water.
I am not a fan of rice powders overall. I find them a bit drying. I am using this once only every few days. It makes the skin feel extra smooth but I want to use it carefully. I will keep an eye on the rice powder over the next weeks to see if I can use it more often.
Once the skin is clean you use the Tatcha deep hydration firming serum.
The serum is very liquid and has a floral scent to it. A little bit of product goes a long way. The serum is transparent with little gold flakes.
The serum feels good on the skin and it sinks in very quickly.
Once the serum is applied the indigo triple recovery cream is applied on top of it.
According to Tatcha the new indigo triple recovery cream that is intended for sensitive skin is helping the skin recover from rosacea, eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis or allergies. Due to the fact that my skin reacts to many products I wanted to see if this cream would be good for me too.
The cream is blue and has no scent to it. It is thick and needs to be applied quickly because it sinks in very fast.
I have used the series including the cream for almost four weeks twice a day. I have not experienced any breakouts or other signs of allergies. My skin is healthy moisturized and feels soft. I started off with a bit of dryness around the eyes which now starts healing. I have ordered the products in full size to see progress over a longer period of time.
Overall I am very happy with the new series for sensitive skin. It contains some products that are not scented and I feel the series is better thought through than the initial series for sensitive skin. I am pleased that I have not experienced any trouble with my skin using the Tatcha products.
