These are quite small and i get quite oily, so if i wait until later in the day to touch up it takes like 4 of these to blot my whole face till its smooth and matte. what a pain. with shiseido papers i get better results from just one sheet. but that product does contain a powder, whereas the anna sui do not. if you're only a little bit oily on the nose the smallish size might be ok for you or if you don't like blot papers with powder on them. overall, ok but not the best.

bought it because of the lovely prints on the paper. however, the ability of it being able to absorb the oil on my face cant really make it. howver, i prefer it over clean and clear oil blotter is i can blot it in the public, wont feel embarrassed since others cant see my oil on that film.
may consider buying it again

I got the one in the plastic case with the mirror inside. Figured after I'm done with the paper, I can use the case to carry credit cards and things (just the right size). The blotting paper itself if bigger than the old ones (I have both and the old ones don't fit in the new package :( bugger). But the quality didn't change. It's the same flimsy mediocre paper. But the new one has butterflies printed on them and they are so cute :D

Oh and i tried to fit the clean and clear blotting papers and they fit wahahahaah

Packaging is cute.
The paper is ... IMO, really bad.
It's small and it didn't do much. I rather go for the d/s clean and clear. or the h/e Shiseido ones.

i bought this several years ago and never finished the damn pack. that's because i discovered clean & clear and have used those ever since. i'm keeping the anna sui ones because the packaging is cute, and they save me when i run out of clean & clear. but, like everybody else said, they tear very easily and one is not enough. plus they're not as fun to use as the clean & clear ones as you cannot really see the oil you just removed... :P

Just an ordinary blotting paper and The paper is too small for my face. Bought it becos i need enough points to get some free gives from Anna Sui. I have to admit that all anna sui packaging is very attractive.

This is just mediocre. Small and portable, but one sheet is definitely not enough for my whole face. I end up using 2 sheets each time. This makes it so expensive. The blotters tear easily too.

I could get cheaper and better ones for so much cheaper! Try Fancl's!

Great packaging -- really cute and convenient. However, the papers are small, and don't absorb very much oil before they either tear or need to be tossed. I can easily go through 2-4 of these sheets in one blotting session -- one for each cheek, one for my forehead, and one for nose/chin. So the fact that the package includes more of them really doesn't matter much to me. Clean & Clear Oil Blotting sheets make Anna Sui blotting sheets look like toilet paper! I keep them around to tide me over when I run out of the Clean & Clear oil botting sheets, but when this package runs out, I will not be buying them again.

i agree that the packaging is very cute, and i agree that the blotting papers are just so-so. the papers are really thin, tear easily, and you seem to get more usage out of a shisheido or clean & clear paper. just average overall. ***Edit ... i've decided i just don't like these very much, so i'm taking away a lipstick.

Although, I love Anna Sui's packaging, I just didn't find any special with this one.

I really like Anna Sui, packaging, product and all, but this did not do it for me.
My skin is moderately oily, and this does nothing for me.

First of all, this comes in a cardboard box that looks really pretty, but is bad because it falls apart so fast. Secondly, this is really expensive for these little sheets of paper. It does absorb oil but not very well. Also, you have to be very careful with this because it may disturb your makeup. If you're not super oily, this would be very good for you.

I cannot say enough good things about these papers. They soak up oil, do not disturb your makeup, they smell like roses, they are fairly inexpensive, and they are purple! I have been using Anna'a blotting papers for about five years now, and I am still in love.

My friend gave this product to me on my birthday. I also love how it's neatly folded in the oh so cute package and it comes out as a big piece! It's a nice lavendar colored paper yet it breaks easily. It absorbs a fair amount of oil though! Cute product!

I got this as a freebie, and it works pretty well, though it takes more than one for it to absorb all the oil on me. Then again I may uber oiler than what this was designed for. It only takes one of the Shishedo for me, but anna does make it look damn pretty and smell pretty damn nice

I am being generous with my lipstick rating because I adore the packaging of these blotting papers =) The prettiest I have seen, next to Stila's Angel Light version. I use these daily, they are quite good. However you do not get what your money's worth - the papers are small and one sheet may not be enough to touch up your entire face. If you are super oily you have need two or three to get the job done. However, if you are just relatively oily like myself, then one sheet is all you need. I like these, but I do not thing I will repurchase as there are many other blotting papers on the market.

Maybe I'm just too greasy for these things. It takes about four of them to blot my face, and when I'm done my fingers are greasy. Didn't work well for me. Packaging is cute, but the blotter sheets are nothing special.

Of course I bought it for the packaging, and this is the only reason why this product deserves 2 instead of 1 lippies. The provided quantity of blotting papers is generous (100 ct.) in comparison with similarly priced lines. However, they are more flimsy than rice paper! In the midst of winter, when my face is minimally oily, these papers tear under the tiniest amount of pressure. I can't imagine how these will fare during the summer season. My beauty products ought to pamper me and not the other way around. If you insist on having diva-style blotting papers, go with Chanel.

The packaging for these blotting papers has to be the best I've ever seen. It comes in a beautiful, floral-print box with a flap that opens to reveal a paper "dispenser", if you will. The papers themselves are a beautiful lilac and really do a nice job of soaking up excess oil (even if they are tiny). The small, thin box is a must-have in any make-up bag.
