Great for on the go uses
jeni27 (163 reviews)

This product works for on the go touch ups (can be left in my purse)for my oily skin. 1 or 2 can be used to dry up some of the oils on the skin's surface for a shine free look. These blotters lessen the chance of getting zits from oils that need to be controlled with a product like this. There are other products from different brands that work the same as this one from Mary Kay so this is about equal to other brands' blotters. — 3 years, 1 month ago

Not worth it.
Ninny1024 (5 reviews)

I don't expect a miracle, but I have to use 2-4 of these at once and I am oily within 20 minutes. Not worth paying even the discount price on eBay. — 1 month ago

This or the oil mattifier
StacieD (122 reviews)

My lil sis has very oily, very sensitive, and acne prone skin. To keep the oil and shine down on her face she uses these. One day my look was so fresh anymore so I tried one. My makeup stayed in place, it took the extra oil off, and I was left look fabulous as usual. My sis also uses the oil mattifier fron MK. She says it doesnt give her a chance to have a any sheen so she doesnt use it much. — 3 years ago

Very handy

I ALWAYS keep these tissues in my purse! They come in handy when you had a long day and you dont have time to wash your face of all the oil that gathers on your face, it works very very well. — 3 years, 1 month ago

Keep it in your purse
delightfuldevil (11 reviews)

I always keep a pack of these in my purse. I have oily skin and These are perfect to use and easy to carry with me. I like that I can use them and they don't remove my make up and keep my face from looking so shiny. — 3 years, 6 months ago

Work ok
NewMultimom06 (5 reviews)

I found these to work ok, however since my skin tends to be very oily i find that i could use quite a few during a 24 hr period, just a temporary fix, however i think for someone with normal skin these may be great — 3 years, 7 months ago

too much oil?
Phillyjo (6 reviews)

these tissues work - they do blot up oil from the skin. Too often necessary to use more than one. — 4 years, 1 month ago

Equal to the others
AHRoss (41 reviews)

I don't see a huge difference in most of these, these are decent. The best thing is they aren't too small, you can do your whole face with 1 maybe 2 — 4 years, 3 months ago
