Really great oil-blotting sheets. I don't think it is as good as the ones from Shiseido though. Also, the packaging isn't very convenient if you are in a hurry and don't have time to carefully take out one single sheet (which is thinner that a piece of paper btw). Once I went to the bathroom and tried to get out one of the sheets, and I accidently got out 5 at once but I couldn't put it pack into the packaging because they got stuck to the sticker on the front to make it close.!!!!

I love these little sheets but sadly have just found out from Clinique that they are being discontinued. I'm having trouble here in the UK finding the Clean and Clear one's that seem to be recommended on here. I recently purchased the Bobbi Brown one's and don't like them nearly as much as the Clinique.

I got this as a gift and certainly enjoyed using them. They do what they are supposed to do. I was shocked when I found out how much they cost though. They may be nice as a novelty gift but I could never justify spending more than $10 for blot paper for myself. For those that want a dirt cheap alternative, I recommend getting cigarette paper. Use the side that is not gummed to blot oil from your face. You can get 50 sheets for about 45 cents and they get the job done just as effectively. They are usually also conveniently packaged and fit nicely in any purse. I use them religiously now when I want to touch up my makeup after work.

This product works and does what it is supposed to do, but I am giving it only 3 lippies as it is nothing 'special'. there are plenty of cheaper options that all work the same. I usually pick up a ton of packs of shesheido, etc. (not clinique) in Japan in the 100 Yen shops ($1 per pack!) that last me all year.

Too expensive for a few little sheets of paper. Definitely works and will get rid of the shine for a couple of hours without clogging your pores like powder. But I read a tip in a beauty book about separating the layers of a facial tissue and using a single layer of a kleenex to blot your face instead of fancy blotting sheets. Tried it and it works just as well as these do for me so I don't see myself needing to buy these again.

OK, first off, these work GREAT for someone like me who gets the "oilies" several times a day. My only gripe is the price. I have found that Clean & Clear sells oil blotting sheets that work exactly the same - they're just a different color - for a fraction of the price. CVS even sells their own brand at a $1 cheaper than C&C's and I can tell no difference at all in the product. Save your $$$ ladies, invest in the C&C or a drugstore brand.

these are my fave blotting sheets. i personally dont like blotting sheets with powder on them, they dont ever give me the natural look i want. i figure if i want to powder my nose i will get my brush and powder out, and if i want the shine to go away thats a different thing. my foundation can sometimes look a little oily in the summer however sheer it is or at nights out when its hot. these papers absorb all oil without messing or taking my make up off. i keep them in my bag 24/7 while im away on holiday anywhere hot and all my friends love them too. the packaging could be better but its not really a big deal when the product is so great????!!!- saying that however, im sooooo tempted to try the Chanel ones just cus of the chanel packaging!! but we shouldnt all be that shallow! :)

Since I don't wear foundation often, I can't comment on "smearing" or anything, but I like this product. It does the job of removing excess oil from the face. I mostly use this for nose or forehead, one sheet at a time is enough. If you use one a day, you can make it for a month and a half (or so) with one package. I wish there were more sheets in a package for the price ($13.50 US), but I suppose 50 is pretty generous for a high-end cosmetics company.

This works really well. It's exactly like Mac's Blot Film. It's a little smaller than theirs and their packaging is practically the same. The only difference is the packagind design with the respective company's logo. I am extremely oily and I find that it doesn't smear my foundation as mentioned by the other people. The packaging is cheap. Come Estee Lauder company, I know you can do better than that.

I like these precisely because they don't have powder on them. They do the job! The only thing I would complain about is the flimsy cardboard packaging that gets trashed in my handbag long before the sheets are used up! (I use about two a time to do my whole face). Will repurchase as this is a brilliant way of saving on powder and preventing any gunking up!

Cannot live without these! i bulk-buy them cos it's difficult to find mattifying sheets without powder on them. They really get rid of all the shine. More than i would like to pay of course but there appears to be no cheaper alternative here in the UK.

These just do the job! They soak up all the oil and leave the makeup as it was. Great product which I would definitely buy again - if it wasn't for such a horrend price! They're just lotting papers, come on!

I really like these because they don't leave a powder residue on your face like other oil-blotting sheets! I think they are on the expensive side- 50 for 13.50- but they do work well.

I like these little green slightly plastic feeling sheets! I have combination skin and my nose and forehead gleam like beacons in the humidity of summer, these are just the job. A previous reviewer found the streak make up, but i found they did not do this if gently patted over area and it was quite facinating in a horrible kind of way to see the opaque sheet go clear after blotting. found 2 sheets did face adequately, leaving no powdery residue behind. The packaging is frankly crap, however as the little cardboard booklet soon gets mullered in your bag, so a lippy off for that as definitely not the lovely packaging you usually get from clinique, especially with the price of £11. They work well though so would repurchase if i were feeling rich.

These do take off oil, but it seems to smear your foundation as well. Plus they are not big enough to do more than your little nose, to do your whole face it would take 5 or 6. Will finish the ones I have will not repurchase.
