Purification, or "kiyome" is an important part of Japanese culture that is threaded in everyday life, according to Tatcha. The brand states, "It’s a physical act that cleanses mind and soul and shows respect for yourself and others." This Rice Wash cleanser is inspired by the tradition of Japanese women rinsing rice in preparation for cooking then using the leftover nutrient-rich water for their beauty rituals. The dermatologist-tested formula softens and balances skin using Japanese rice powder and Okinawa algae.
