What the gurus are saying

This mist earns consistent praise for delivering an instant dewy glow and lightweight hydration that absorbs fast, making it handy for a midday refresh or as a makeup setter. Several experts love it for priming skin before other products, though the price tag draws skepticism from some who feel the ingredients (hydrating but not transformative) don't justify the cost. The fragrance is noticeable (one reviewer detected curry powder and floral notes), which may matter if you're sensitive to scent.

"I love to apply the toner tatcha Essence is great for my skin on days that I feel like I'm more oily and I don't want a ton of hydration but I do want something almost like a to prime the skin to absorb the subsequent steps a little bit better it's super lightweight it absorbs really really fast and it really preps my skin for next step."
✓Yay
"You guys know I love this product this is the Tatcha solid in lip Essence one of my favorites"

"Tatcha is pretty basic. If you're feeling bougie, if you want a gift, if you want to try something out, definitely get it for yourself, but don't look at these brands as truly, truly amazing."

Luxury makeup that is worth your money
"This is literally like a hydrating spray for your face but I use it sometimes on top of makeup because I just feel it gives me this amazing amazing glow. This is a high-end product but like I said benefit right, you can use it as a part of skin care, you can use it as your makeup mist and I absolutely love it, highly highly recommend."
✓Yay
"My main pick from Tatcha is their Luminous Dewy Skin Mist. I love it and it's 30 off. It's a steal in my opinion."
Top Pick: dewy skin mist
✓Yay
"It smells a little bit foody, kind of like curry powder mixed with a floral scent, and it's got added fragrance which I'm a bit confused about. But it feels very light and refreshing and gives me a nice dewy glow straight away. I like that a lot for an instant kind of dewy fix. It's pricey but that's expected from Tatcha. For [...] an instant dewy fix I'd use this in the morning under my other products and I can see it looking nice over makeup. [...] I actually quite like this."
✓Yay
"Tonight I'm using the essence from Tatcha. This has a few different fermented ingredients that have been shown to hydrate, plump, and sort of soften the skin. When I do use an essence, it's pretty nice. I almost never use an essence in my personal routine just because I like to keep things as streamlined as possible, but when I do use an essence, it's pretty nice."
✓Mixed
"It is vegan and cruelty free, and a lot of Tatcha products are super overpriced, especially when I look at this it's like why are we spending so much money on this. So many people love them and I don't know if it's because they look like a fairy tale book [...] or if there is something amazing about the formulation. [...] This spray has glycerin, squalane, licorice, and rice, which are good hydrating ingredients but not gonna cure anything."

"Everyone is obsessed with this. I don't think it's worth the hype. Maybe I need to go try it again, maybe I need to give it a second 2.0, but I did not find it to be revolutionary. It's very expensive for what it is. [...] The ingredients aren't horrible, they're just not great."
Reacting To Selena Gomez's Lupus Toothpaste Skincare Routine
"I actually don't hate this product, but I find that a lot of Tatcha products tend to be a little bit overpriced for my liking. [...] That said, this is definitely expensive but if you have Selena Gomez money you could probably afford it. It claims to deliver smoother, plumper skin based on these ingredients. Looking at the formula, the first ingredient is not water but saccharomyces, which is a fermented filtrate and does cost money."
Esthe Reacts to Zoe Kravitz's Crevices 😏
"Tatcha, so many people love Tatcha, I get that they're basically the line of skincare everybody loves them, I get that it can be fun for some people but for me and my lifestyle it's just not worth the hype. The ingredients in here aren't horrible, I feel like they're a little bit overpriced for what they are. There are less expensive options."
✓Yay
"Tatcha Dewy Skin Mist is probably like the most popular one. I feel like the most iconic one. It is super hydrating. So, if you're like really dry and you need to like rehydrate throughout the day, that's a great thing. Like, just buy the mini one, keep it in your bag, and just a quick mist to just sort of like bring the skin back to life. That's a great supplement."

Grab a snack friends, I have SO many skin & hair care empties!
"In terms of the packaging, [...] I felt like it lasted long enough. It was just a mist so I felt like it had a decent shelf life which was nice. [...] I just absolutely loved the formula. I just thought it did so much for my skin and I miss it now. I'm using one from Cosrx which is just like centella and [...] it's just not doing enough, it's not doing enough. So I actually [...] think I'm going to pick another one of these up."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
