Is Tatcha legit?
Short answer: yes, Tatcha is a real store, and our score is 3.7 out of 5. The main caveat: Trustpilot rating of 2.3 from about 100 reviews.
It sells cleansers, moisturizers, serums, eye creams, lip treatments and skincare sets through its own website, tatcha.com. Independent reviews are still scarce, so judge it mainly on its policies. Returns: 60 days from purchase, with a free UPS return label you print yourself. Shipping and gift wrap aren't refunded, and nearly empty or tampered products aren't accepted.
Our take: legitimate, but read the downsides below before you buy.

Tatcha's 98 Trustpilot reviews average 2.3. Reviewers say the creams feel moisturizing, and some report less redness or dryness; a few had irritation or breakouts.
