Reasons Why You Should Always Keep A Pack Of Blotting Paper In Your Bag

Blotting paper is one simple but very effective skincare tool, as it is just a small sheet of paper that is made to be kept and used on the go. It absorbs the excess oil from your face and mattifies it in just a few seconds. Although the product itself has a simple use, there is some way that it can be amplified and become even more practical.

One example is the Mercy Handy natural blotting paper that comes in cute packaging with a mirror and an adhesive puff to make the use even easier. Made of 96% of natural origin ingredients (composed of manila hemp and green tea leaves), it is unscented and vegan.

Another option is the Shiseido Oil-Control Blotting Papers that are powder-coated, and dermatologist tested. The well-designed package includes 100 single-use sheets and is known for being extra absorbent, which makes it ideal for very oily skin. It contains fragrance and is made of cellulose, kaolin clay, and baking soda, which explains its grease-absorbing power.

The Tatcha Aburatorigami Japanese Blotting Papers is a very well-reviewed option and is made of superior quality. They are made of abaca leaf, which is a naturally absorbent fiber. Furthermore, it will mattify while the crushed gold flakes infuse a subtle shimmer and a mattified, healthy glow to the skin. It is also biodegradable. 

Finally, the Fenty Beauty Invisimatte Blotting Paper is a highlight for being refillable, having an innovative design, and including a mirror in the packaging. It is made of wood pulp and is small enough to look like lipstick.
