If your skin is oily, then you’ve probably tried every anti-oil primer, oil-free foundation and the best setting powders out there, and yet you still get those shiny areas, mainly on the top of your forehead, around your nose and anywhere on our face.
That’s exactly where blotting papers fit. It’s true, they don’t solve the problem from its roots, but they can fix it in literally seconds. They take the shine out and absorb oil with only a few pinches.
Here are our favorites that really work with long-lasting results.
Oil Blotting Papers – Sephora
They’re the blotting papers that don’t only remove shine, dirt, oil, and perspiration from the skin, but also unclog pores and give a matt complexion.
