Boscia Black Charcoal Blotting Linens

Boscia Black Charcoal Blotting Linens Blotting sheets keep getting fancier and Boscia’s black charcoal version is no exception. I have to give it the folks at Boscia because including a pore-purifying ingredient in blotting sheets is really clever. I think the majority of the ladies who use blotting sheets have oily skin types or oily areas so we can really use the extra help with keeping pores clean and keeping excess shine away without disturbing our makeup. Available at Sephora for $10.

Is it possible to make a homemade one

the biore mask is great I love how it heats up on your face!

BIORÉ is something I can stand by. I have used it, loved it, and full-heartledly loved the product. I was so timid to try charcoal anything but a friend convinced me of BIORÉ and I used it once and was in love! It's also at Wal-Mart, and I believe a dollar or so cheaper!

origins mask, it's the ONE!
