The Non-Toxic Skincare Line That Everyone Loves

Natural skincare inspires a sense of scepticism in many people. Often, the trade-off for all-natural ingredients is a decline in efficacy, which is frustrating for users who like to be mindful about what they put on their skin.

The cult brand Tata Harper, however, is one exception that proves natural skincare can be both clean and effective. The brand's luxe products are super-powered and high performance, designed to tackle issues that natural skincare often won’t dare touch: Fine lines, pigmentation, congestion, dark circles. There are no artificial fragrances, mineral oils, GMO, toxins, artificial colours or synthetic chemicals. This is natural skincare with bite.

About Tata Harper

Tata Harper (the woman) started her natural skincare journey as a child in Colombia, mixing homemade spa products with her grandma. Today, she lives on an organic farm in Vermont, where she also creates all her products with ingredients she’s sourced from around the world. Her eponymous line is a fine example of plant-based products competing with—perhaps even beating—synthetic products when it comes to visible results.

A big part of Harper’s success lies in her tenacity. She is constantly seeking out the most potent ingredients that can be found in nature. Proving the point, she has recently undertaken a thorough reformulation of her famous six-piece Supernaturals collection using the most powerful extracts she has discovered in the years since she released the originals in 2013.

Tata Harper Supernaturals 2.0

Called Supernaturals 2.0, the range is spruiked as having “radical ingredients for radical results”, promising that it was “engineered with the most ultramodern green technology.” Consider us sold.

The Concentrated Brightening Duo includes The Concentrated Brightening Serum and The Concentrated Brightening Essence, both of which are formulated with seventy-four high-performance ingredients from twenty-one countries. The duo promises to correct uneven tone, dark spots and dullness to restore a youthful, radiant look. After cleansing, dampen face with the essence before applying the serum to supercharge its power.

Elixir Vitae (which is Harper’s desert-island product) and its companion Elixir Vitae Eye Serum contain ninety-eight ingredients sourced from twenty-eight countries, including flower peptides that relax muscles to reduce the appearance of lines, kelp polymers to take on cellular ageing, and resin from the pistachio tree helps to plump skin.

The third item in the collection, the Boosted Contouring Serum and Eye Balm, promises to lift and firm with the help of seventy-seven ingredients from thirty-three countries.

The Supernaturals collection is a hero range, and appropriately sits in the premium price category, but Tata Harper also offers products across a spectrum of prices, so you can add several to cart for a customised skincare routine.

The Best Tata Harper Products

The Resurfacing Mask is a worldwide favourite product, and its follow-up Resurfacing Serum quickly developed a cult following, but there are also highly rated cleansers, essences, eye creams, face oils, masks, moisturisers, serums, cosmetics and body products.

If you don't know where to begin, you can take a quick test on the site about your skin concerns. There, you will receive a customised skincare regimen with a line-up of cleanser, serum, moisturiser and eye cream, as well as a booster product and a targeting product. There are also tutorial videos and a blog, for all your Tata questions, and a feature that lets you track who made and packed any product you have your eye on.

As well as caring for the skin, Tata Harper also focuses on caring for the environment. The brand uses glass wherever possible, as it can be recycled indefinitely. When plastic is the only option, the brand chooses bio-based plastics that are made from sugarcane. All outer packing is made of cardboard made from managed forests, and even the soy-based printing ink is considered.

Tata Harper ships to Australia, but you can also find selected items from the range at Sephora Australia.
