Frequently asked questions
2 E.l.f. Shine Eraser Oil Blotting Sheets
e.l.f. is my go-to brand for inexpensive yet good quality beauty products. Their oil blotting papers are only a dollar and successfully remove excess oil without over drying your skin. These blotting papers are super thin, and while some might be a little miffed that the papers sometimes rip, you honestly can’t beat the price!
3 Shiseido Pureness Oil-Control Blotting Paper
Shiseido products are usually pricier than other department store brands of beauty products, but they’re often well worth it. Their soft and gentle oil blotting papers are coated with Hydroxyapatite, which they state is a powerful oil-absorbing ingredient, so any excess oil on your face is history! Enjoy longer lasting makeup and radiant skin!
4 Clean & Clear Instant Oil-Absorbing Sheets
Clean & Clear’s oil absorbing sheets are one of the first oil blotting sheets I ever experimented with. These blotting sheets are unique in that they don’t have the typical tissue-paper like texture to the sheets. Clean & Clear’s blotting sheets are blue and somewhat rubbery, but they’re still soft, silky and will leave your skin feeling clean and dry.
5 Sephora Collection Blotting Papers
Sephora Collection’s blotting sheets offer us five different types of sheets specializing in different areas of skin care to address your individual skin care needs. Choose from Rejuvenating Glacial Clay and Salicylic Acid, Calming Natural Tea Tree, Natural Vitamins C+E, Relaxing Natural Lavender and Mattifying. All of these oil blotting sheets do a great job absorbing oil, but they also offer skin some nice extras that we don’t often see in blotting papers!
6 NYX Cosmetics Blemish Control Blotting Paper
NYX Cosmetics is another popular beauty brand with good quality products at great prices. They also have a collection of different oil blotting sheets, ranging from blemish controlling, green tea and tea tree oil blotting papers. Any of these blotting sheets help control oil and minimize pores while keeping skin clean, clear and healthy.
7 Tatcha Aburatorigami Japanese Beauty Papers Duo
Tatcha’s blotting sheets are called Aburatorigami, which literally means oil removing paper in Japanese. These oil blotting papers contain super luxe gold flakes, which are said to be a timeless secret for exquisite skin. This set comes with 30 regular sheets and 40 evening oil blotting sheets to gently absorb oil without disturbing any makeup or moisture from your skin!
Lucky for us oily-skinned gals, oil blotting papers come in various types to suit all different skin types and skin care needs! Honestly, these blotting papers are a lifesaver and I couldn’t imagine leaving the house without some of these in tow! What oil blotting sheets do you use?
