Shiseido Pureness Oil Control Blotting Paper



OK..I cant rave enough about this blotting paper! I have been using it for years and still going. I have combination skin and sometimes it gets very oily around the t-zone area...but this thing does it magic every single time! I tried many different brands, but always coming back to this one. It's a bit pricey, but it comes with 100 sheets in a package..that will definitely last you a long time.

I suggest you to use a blotting paper first before you touch-up your make-up. That way the paper will take away the excess oil, instead of just piling more junk on your face and clogging your pores (pimples people!). Hell, with this thing I dont even touch up! I just "refresh" my face in the middle of the day and I'm good for the day.

Where to buy
Macy's
Nordstrom

Price :$16.50

Pro:
1. Takes away your shine using just 1 sheet.
2. There's no powdery residue coming out of it like some brand.
3. Scent free.

Cons:
1.Little bit pricey to some.
2.The packaging can be a bit dirty after awhile.

I'm always on the lookout for good blotting papers. But of course the ones that work great are pricey. I'm big on the Clean & Clear ones. $7 is too much for me now though. So I've been buying a generic version. But 100 sheets? Hmm that's double the usual amount...
