Kim Kardashian Has The Same $65 Skincare Secret As Meghan Markle

Kim Kardashian-West and Meghan Markle are both major beauty icons. Whether people are clamoring to find out Kardashian's nightly skincare routine or undergoing plastic surgery in order to look more like Markle, the term "beauty icon" might actually be an understatement.

According to Elle, her makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic told Elle a little more about what that prep looks like and it turns out she and Meghan Markle have the same secret weapon: Tatcha products. To get Kim ready for the amfAR gala in New York, the lineup included Tatcha's Classic Rice Polish, formerly called the Rice Enzyme Powder.

"When mixed with water, this foaming enzyme powder helps exfoliate and smooth the surface of the skin," Dedivanovic explained in a press statement. Back in 2014 Markle echoed that sentiment, telling Allure that she really "loves the Tatcha Rice Enzyme Powder. It just sort of foams on your face and gives you a really subtle exfoliation."

Here it is: Tatcha's Classic Rice Polish (the Japanese beauty brand quite beloved by Byrdie editors). It's a unique water-activated exfoliant, meaning it starts out as a finely-milled powder. To use it, take a small amount of the powder in your hand, add water, and massage it into your skin. The powder will quickly transform into a smooth foamy cleanser.

Promising Review: If you’re seeking perfect skin, this is IT

I’m someone who loves to try new skincare products so I rarely buy something over and over — but this is one of the staples I keep coming back to.

Overall I have decent skin; while I rarely break out, I do experience some redness and have some visible pores. My goal is to achieve a smoother texture, and this polish DELIVERS. I use it a few times a week and every time it’s like my skin is brand new again — it feels so clean (but it’s gentle!), smooth, soft, and clear. This one is my secret to achieving perfect skin. You will see and feel immediate results! _Alice

Choose between CLASSIC, DEEP, GENTLE, CALMING

Priced at $65, The Rice Polish has reached cult-favorite status because of its gentle scrubbing and soothing foam. Papaya enzymes promote skin cell turnover while ground rice bran offers a light buffing that leaves your face cashmere-soft. Over time, fans claim it helps reduce hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, and gives an overall supple glow to the skin.
