Charcoal vs Green Tea: Which Is Right for You?
Both absorb oil the same way. The only difference is scent and texture.
If you're trying to decide between our two main options, here's the simple breakdown: they work identically. Both are made from natural materials. Both lift oil from your skin without disturbing makeup. The difference comes down to whether you want fragrance-free or a light scent.
Charcoal: Unscented
Our Charcoal blotting sheets are completely unscented. The texture is soft and slightly matte. If you have sensitive skin, prefer fragrance-free products, or use other skincare with active ingredients, this is likely your better choice.
Green Tea: Light Fresh Scent
Our Green Tea blotting sheets have a subtle, fresh scent—not overpowering, not sweet. The texture is slightly firmer than Charcoal. If you enjoy a light fragrance during your touch-up routine, this is the one to choose.
