Ingredient ratings and evidence
Higher-risk flags first. Open an ingredient for evidence.
Parfum
Low risk
Umbrella term for an undisclosed fragrance blend. It’s not usually a pregnancy-specific concern at normal cosmetic use levels, but the exact components and concentrations aren’t fully disclosed on the label, so we score it more conservatively. If you prefer maximum transparency (or you’re sensitive to fragrance compounds), choose fragrance-free/unscented products.

Phenoxyethanol
Low risk
Phenoxyethanol is a preservative permitted in EU cosmetics up to 1.0%. The SCCS concluded it is safe for cosmetic use at that level, including when considering higher cosmetic exposure scenarios in infants and young children. Main practical concern is irritation/stinging on very sensitive or compromised skin rather than a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific risk.

Microcrystalline Cellulose
No known risks
This cellulose or modified-cellulose polymer is used as a thickener, film former or stabilizer. Cosmetic Ingredient Review data indicate that cellulose polymers do not appreciably penetrate skin and are safe in current cosmetic use, with at most minimal irritation reported.

Propanediol
No known risks
Solvent and humectant used to improve texture and ingredient solubility. Low systemic exposure expected from topical cosmetic use.
Sources: Cosmetic Ingredient Review (US); Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (EU)
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate
No known risks
A mild amino-acid-derived cleansing surfactant. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that amino acid alkyl amides, including sodium cocoyl glutamate, are safe in current practices when formulated to be non-irritating. No pregnancy-specific concern was identified for normal use of a finished cosmetic.

Glycerin
No known risks
Glycerin is a widely used humectant that supports hydration and the skin barrier, with a long safety record and no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns in topical cosmetic use.
Sources: CIR; EU/UK Cosmetics Regulation
Acrylates Copolymer
No known risks
Film-forming polymer used for texture and wear. Large-molecule ingredient with low systemic absorption.
Sources: Cosmetic Ingredient Review (US); Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (EU)
Coco-Betaine
No known risks
A cleansing and foam-supporting surfactant made from coconut-derived fatty chains. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that alkyl betaines, including coco-betaine, are safe in current practices when formulated to be non-irritating. Surfactant-containing products may still sting eyes or irritated skin.
Sources: CIR: Quick Reference Table conclusion for Coco-Betaine and alkyl betaines https://www.cir-safety.org/sites/default/files/sq-fix_2.pdf
Camellia Sinensis Leaf
No known risks
camellia sinensis leaf is a botanical cosmetic ingredient that may naturally contain caffeine or related methylxanthines. CIR concluded that caffeine, theobromine and theophylline are safe in current cosmetic practices of use; expected exposure from normal topical use is far below dietary or medicinal intake. No pregnancy-specific topical concern was identified. This assessment does not extend to oral supplements.
Sources: CIR Safety Assessment of Methylxanthines https://cir-safety.org/sites/default/files/methxa122018FR.pdf; European Commission CosIng ingredient inventory
Oryza Sativa Powder
No known risks
A cosmetic functional ingredient used for conditioning, texture or formula support. Available cosmetic-use information did not identify a reproductive or developmental hazard from normal topical exposure.
Sources: European Commission CosIng ingredient inventory; relevant CIR cosmetic safety assessments and peer-reviewed cosmetic-use literature.
Chondrus Crispus Extract
No known risks
A red-algae-derived extract used for skin conditioning, hydration or formula texture. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the assessed red algae ingredients, including this extract, are safe in current practices of use and concentration. Cosmetic manufacturers should control naturally occurring contaminants such as heavy metals and arsenic.
Sources: CIR: Safety Assessment of Red Algae-Derived Ingredients as Used in Cosmetics https://cir-reports.cir-safety.org/view-attachment/?id=cef5b6e9-8c74-ec11-8943-0022482f06a6
Sodium Hyaluronate
No known risks
Sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid salt) is used for hydration and cushioning, with very low systemic absorption from topical use and no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns at cosmetic concentrations.
Sources: CIR; EU/UK Cosmetics Regulation
Lauryl Glucoside
No known risks
This glucose-derived nonionic surfactant or emulsifier is used in cleansers and emulsions. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review concluded that alkyl glucosides are safe in current cosmetic use when formulated to be non-irritating; sensitive skin can still react to surfactants.
Sources: CIR: Safety Assessment of Decyl Glucoside and Other Alkyl Glucosides as Used in Cosmetics https://cir-reports.cir-safety.org/view-attachment/?id=9810a771-8e74-ec11-8943-0022482f06a6
Potassium Hydroxide
No known risks
A strongly alkaline raw material used mainly in small amounts to adjust pH or during soap manufacture. Concentrated potassium hydroxide is corrosive, but that raw-material hazard is not representative of a correctly formulated finished cosmetic. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that inorganic hydroxides are safe in current cosmetic uses when products are formulated to be non-irritating, with special handling conditions for depilatories and hair straighteners. No pregnancy-specific concern is identified for normal use of a compliant finished product.

Polyquaternium-39
No known risks
A cationic conditioning and film-forming polymer. Cosmetic Ingredient Review assessments concluded that the named polyquaterniums are safe in current cosmetic practices, in some cases with the condition that formulations be non-irritating. Their large polymeric structures limit expected passage through intact skin. No pregnancy- or reproductive-toxicity signal was identified for normal topical cosmetic exposure.

Has every ingredient in Tatcha The Rice Wash Skin-Softening Cleanser been assessed?
21 of 23 ingredient entries on this page have a recorded score, evidence summary and source text. 2 entries do not have all of those fields. Unmatched or unrated entries are marked Not assessed in grey; missing evidence does not establish safety.
Does this assessment apply to my Tatcha The Rice Wash Skin-Softening Cleanser?
Only if the ingredient list on your packaging matches the recorded formula shown here. Formulas can differ by market and change over time. Compare the full list, not just the product name; report a mismatch if it differs.
Does this pregnancy assessment also establish breastfeeding suitability?
No. This page presents a pregnancy-focused product assessment. Do not infer a breastfeeding conclusion from its score or label; breastfeeding requires a separate assessment of the formula and how it is used.
