it's Spring time here and it's really humid. Even though I have rather dry skin, my face is oily during the afternoon. I wonder how many of you use oil plotting paper to absorb the face oil. If you do, how many piece you use per day? I do, and I use around 1 piece per day, mostly in the afternoon like around 3-4pm.

No, I've never even heard of oil blotting paper, although there are some stick on strips I've heard of some people using to try to help draw it out during a nap, for instance. I'm of the opinion that the less we mess with our skin externally the better it will grow, and that proper nutrition is the way to go for nice skin.

I used to buy these expensive oil blotting papers, then a miracle struck. Taco Bell napkins work in the same way. So when I go to Taco Bell, I load up on the free napkins, and press them to my face, and can see the oil left there. Try it! It's unbelievable! And FREE!

My face is oily, too. Sometimes I will use the oil plotting paper but I heard that it's not good to use more than two of them everyday. I found the Clean & Clear oil control film works well. I know you are good at this aspect, do you know any other good brands for it?

I use a Japanese Line called Fasio, it has 100 sheet and it's really cheap! You're right, once or at most twice a day is good enough.

Hello wondericequeen, I have a combination type of skin. Some parts are very oily. I always have a pack of oil blotting paper in my make up bag. I use two or three of them every day especially in the afternoon.

I have oily skin too that's why blotting paper is a must have for me. I tried natural rice powder blotting paper, it has powder so somehow it control the oil.
