The jar began as a love letter to a yunomi — a small Japanese tea cup with no handle, shaped to be cradled in two hands.

The Tatcha Institute
Founded in Tokyo in 2015, the Tatcha Institute is the lab where every Tatcha formula begins. Our scientists work alongside senior geiko advisors who still practice the centuries-old hadasei regimen, translating quiet Japanese rituals into rigorously tested, peer-reviewed clinical formulas. Every ingredient passes through both hands — the rigorously modern and the rigorously old — before it ever reaches a Tatcha jar.
Inside the formula
At the center of the formula is Hadasei-3™, Tatcha's proprietary complex inspired by time-honored fermentation and refined through modern skincare innovation.
