Tatcha

Birchbox Breakdown

You can thank profligate Japanese royalty for Tatcha's elegant blotting papers: during Imperial times, handmade paper was used to protect gold and silver as it was hammered into decorative gold leaf. Geishas used the leftover papers, flecked with precious metals, to keep their skin matte.

How it Works

Handmade from durable abaca fibers and real gold leaf, these blotting papers are all-natural and highly absorbent. They pick up oil without ruining makeup, and don't leave a powdery residue. And because the sheets are twice the size of normal blotting papers, they go twice as far.

How to Use

Lightly pat oily sections of face with a clean sheet, using both sides until skin is dry.

100% abaca leaf, gold flake

Already loving these.

I just received these in the mail today and I am already enjoying using these. They're very delicate on the face and they are much bigger than the ones I normally use. I liked that I only need to use one sheet instead of 2 or 3.

fancy and effective

These are great - more effective than a tissue and less cakey than reapplication of powder. Plus they look fantastic as you pull them out of cute little clutch:)

Love!!

Living in Australia there's a lot of humidity and these blotting papers did the trick in giving my skin a flawless powdery look after it was extremely shiny! Love them!!

Luxurious

These blotting papers are so luxurious I almost find it hard to pull myself to using one! But once I cave I find it does wonderings on mattifying my face without having to cake on more makeup! Definitely worth giving as a gift to a friend or to treat yourself to a luxurious product.

Size Matters

I use blotting papers regularly. I live in the desert, so a light coat of persperation is alway on my face, wreaking havoc with makeup, when I wear it. Even touching up makeup is a challenge when it's 110 degrees. Many blotting papers are small and I find myself using several to do one job. These are a great size and soak up moisture readily and deeply. I will continue to use this product.

LOVE THEM!

The sheets do an amazing job of getting oils off my skin without smudging or removing my makeup. I only need one sheet and you can see the results on the paper. I will definitely be repurchasing these
