it works!
kenya (498 reviews)

my friend uses them. she has the shiniest forehead i have ever seen and these are her secret weapon. they work well but are too expensive when you can just use the same paper for toilet seat covers in public restrooms (SJP's secret) — 2 years, 11 months ago

A great item to get rid of excess oil
luckybetty (880 reviews)

The oil absorbing blotting sheet is very vital for me since I live in a hot humid climate. During the summer months, being in outside for 5 min is enough for me to get all sweaty. Each sheet is blue colored, I gently place a sheet on my skin, and I can see how much it sucks up excess oil from my skin without messing up makeup. Even though it is a bit more expensive than Clean & Clear's, I like this Neurorogena's more than the Clean & Clear's blotting sheet. But I have a feeling that it is not as easy to find as it once was. — 1 year, 6 months ago

I always keep these with me
j_orestano (221 reviews)

These little sheets actually do what they say they will. I pat one on my face and it immediately gets rid of shine without smudging my makeup. I do find that within a couple hours (or less if I sweat) my face starts to get shiny again, but that's my only complaint. — 3 years, 1 month ago

A must have!
meldanielle (10 reviews)

These lovely little sheets were my life saver last summer and they will be again this one...and probably all the summers after that. I live in Kansas and the humidity here is out of this world. It makes wearing ANY type of makeup a challenge. I used to hate it but after trying this product, its not so bad anymore. Sure, I go through a few of them a day but it makes it all worth it in the end when I dont look like the Wicked Witch of the West melting. — 2 months, 3 weeks ago

IN LOVE
Shannon113 (4 reviews)

I've always had oily skin and it gets oily FAST. I've never been able to find a solution. I signed up for SkinId and got these as a free gift and I LOVE this product. It completely removes all the oiliness on my face without removing any of my makeup or having any other negative efect on my skin. I recommend this to all my fellow oily skinned friends :) — 1 year, 2 months ago

Fantastic!
audreyjustine (23 reviews)

I used to pass around my packet of these blotting sheets and have contests with my friends to see who could get the most oil off on their sheet. In retrospect, it was kind of a gross pastime, but we were an oil-free faced group! I love these on long days when I wash my face in the morning, then have to go all day without another cleansing. A couple swipes with these babies and it's like I just stepped out of the shower. — 1 year, 3 months ago

Essential for Oily Faces
amiawake (28 reviews)

I probably have the oiliest face on the planet, and I can go through about three of these a night if I wanted to but I try to just use one! They do an excellent job ridding my face of the oil on the surface and they make my face look matte. I don't wear makeup anywhere except my eyes so I'm not sure how it does as far as keeping your makeup where it is but I definitely love how it gets all of the oil off with one sheet! The sticky part that lifts up the individual sheets doesn't last throughout the entire packets use though so getting them out gets more difficult as time goes on. — 1 year, 5 months ago

Eh.
tphith (1 reviews)

I got these little blotting sheets in a combination package with the deep cleaning cream face wash (loved it, definitely recommend it). When I used them I could definitely see the oil it wiped away, but it made no noticeable difference in my shine levels throughout the day and wiped away my make-up. I was expecting a little more out of it, but I guess for a freebie I shouldn't have expected miracles. Maybe someone with a less oily-complexion would find this more useful, but for me they were no better than using tissue paper to blot. — 1 year, 6 months ago
