These oil blotting papers feel like nothing at all but for the price i'll stick with the clean and clear oil blotting papers.

My aesthetician told me these were the best she's tried a few years ago and I've been using these ever since. In the summer, I have to use at least 2 per day and in winter, once per day. I'm loving it!

HG status.
Yes they are expensive. But they are bigger than the other blotting sheets I'd been using so I use fewer. I typically use 2-3 per use to get my entire face, but I am quite oily.
They do a good job mattifying and getting rid of oil without disturbing my makeup or turning my face red.
Wish they had some sort of carrying case as the package does tend to get beat up in my makeup bag.

I absolutely love these blotting papers!! They are the best ones I've ever tried! These absorb your oils like crazy, every time I use one it sort of mattifies my face and makes it look nice. They are also bigger than most blotting papers so one is more than enough! However because they're sooooooo expensive for blotting paper, I will probably not repurchase. (hence why I gave it a 4)

I never leave home without these. I've tried numerous other brands, but these take care of oil without smudging or making my m/u look patchy. They're quite pricy, and during the summer I can go through one once a month, but I feel they're so worth it for oily skinned gals.

I have stopped using powder and started using blotting paper instead. Of all brand I have tried so far this is the winner for my oily and acne prone skintype.
This does absorb more of the oils and shine on the face than any other blotting paper that I have tried so far. Also a huge plus is that gives a longwearing shine and oil control.
Yes they are expensive but they are my HG.

I've tried this ones and the sephora express ones, and I can honestly say shisedo's blotting papers are much much better! They're big and I only have to use them like twice a day. Will repurchase them again.

Brilliant for oil blotting. Bit on the pricey side but do a good job of de-slicking without ruining your make up.
I'm sure my husband probably thinks I am eating crisps in the bathroom from the sound they make

Best blotting paper ever. It has powder on it which helps with oil absorption, but then its just enough so your face doesn't look like its been powdered. This product is amazing!

My #1 must have product. Takes care of my oily skin. LOVE this product. (just wish the material was a little tougher so it wouldn't rip so easily)

I have tried multiple different brands from cheapest (clean&clear) to most expensive (Chanel to name but one) and Shiseido has been the best so far. I have re-purchased their blotting papers several times already and am planning to purchase more shortly (duty free, yes!). They are not cheap but it takes me a while (a long while!) to finish the package, so they are not all that expensive in the long run. I mostly use a couple (4-5) of sheets a day (my skin is oily-oily-oily, especially in the summer). While I mostly have to use a couple of other brand's sheets to blot my face at a time, one single Shiseido sheet is enough to cover my whole face! I have stopped using powder during the day. Their sheets are (amazingly!) enough to keep me matte and they keep my foundation in place! I'll stock up when I get a chance! HG status! continued >>

I love these! Way better than Clean and Clear which turn really gross if you are having a very oily moment! I love how they make your face look like you have just put on a fresh coat of make up! Will never waste my money trying anything else!

I've been using these forever - I "cheated" on them and tried various brands, Clean & Clear, Bobbi Brown, and an asian brand (sorry - I can't remember; it was too long ago) that was much like BB. All are much cheaper, but I truly believe you get what you pay for with the blotting sheets.
With other brands, I had to use 3 or more sheets at a time to blot the oil effectively, often twice or more a day. With the Shiseido, I only use one sheet at a time usually - two, if I'm super-oily. I know that $18 (for a pack of 100 sheets) is really pricey (as compared to $5 for 100 of BB re-fill pack), but these are so much more effective, so this lasts about 3 months on me, as opposed to BB, which I had to re-buy within about 3 weeks. So, in the end, I spent about the same $$ buying the cheaper versions, so I'm going back to Shiseido - it's way more cost-effective and does the job better, IMO. continued >>

I have used Shiseido's Oil-Control blotting papers for approximately three years now, and it is honestly the best ones you will ever use. It blots possibly all the excess oil from your skin and leaves you feeling like you have basically just washed your face. I changed from this to another brand last year, and I was completely disappointed because I had already used such an exceptional product. The downside is possibly the price. It's fairly expensive here, in Australia, but using it once a day would be enough. :)

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these blotting papers. when i have these i have no need for powder. i don't like the idea or the feeling of layering on product after product on my face (moisturizer sunscreen primer foundation powder etc....it just feels nasty to me, like my face is smothered in too much crap). these papers seriously rock on helping oil and shine better than any others i've used. possibly because of the kaolin on the surface which helps to matte skin and suck out impurities leaving my face soft smooth and dry. they make my life simpler no doubt. the price is high but i don't know of any others that work this well!!

I started out buying these blotting papers "way back when" during my early college days. Even then they were pricey but only Shiseido sold them at the department stores where I frequented. I remember
loving them so much that I would buy several packets at a time just so I had them on hand everywhere I went. I even turned my friends onto these great instant face mattifiers. My only complaint was the slightly
blue tint to my face that the powder left behind but I could live with that as long as my T-zone wasn't an oily mess! A few years ago, it seems as though many of the cosmetics companies caught onto the idea and I tried a few differents brands only to come back to Shiseido. Then I discovered Clean & Clear! They have since become my HG because they don't interfere with my makeup as I don't want a powder residue--just the oil blotted off my face. One sheet does the trick and I can do it discreetly without a sound. On top of that, you can't beat the major price difference so, goodbye Shiseido. While being a really good product, I've found something else that is better for me.
