Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about PleasingCare blotting sheets? Here are answers to help you choose the right format and use it with ease.
Getting Started
What are blotting sheets? ▼
Thin sheets made from natural fibers that absorb excess oil from your skin's surface. They lift away shine without adding another layer of product.
How do blotting sheets work? ▼
The fibers draw oil away from skin when pressed gently against the surface. You see the oil on the sheet, not your face.
Do blotting papers clog pores? ▼
No. Blotting papers only absorb surface oil and do not clog pores. They don't contain ingredients that penetrate the skin or block pores.
Are blotting papers reusable? ▼
No. Each sheet is designed for single use. Once it absorbs oil, discard it and use a fresh sheet if needed.
How to Use
How do I use blotting sheets correctly? ▼
Press, don't rub. Peel one sheet from the pack, gently press against oily areas like forehead, nose, and chin, then lift away.
Will they remove my makeup? ▼
No—when used correctly. Press the sheet against your skin and lift. Don't rub or drag. The oil transfers to the sheet. Your makeup stays on your face.
How often can I use them? ▼
As often as needed. Use when you feel oily or want a quick refresh.
Can I use them over makeup? ▼
Yes. That's what they're designed for. Press gently and your foundation stays in place.
Can I use blotting paper every day? ▼
Yes. You can use blotting paper daily, even multiple times a day, whenever your skin feels oily or looks shiny.
Should I use blotting paper before or after powder? ▼
Use blotting paper first to remove excess oil, then apply powder if needed. This prevents cakey buildup.
Product Differences
What's the difference between Bamboo Charcoal and Green Tea? ▼
Both absorb oil the same way. Bamboo Charcoal is unscented with a soft, matte feel. Green Tea has a light fresh scent and slightly firmer texture. Choose based on whether you prefer fragrance-free or a subtle scent.
What's the difference between Puff Case and Mirror Case? ▼
Puff Case includes a mirror, powder puff, and 50 sheets—best for full touch-ups. Mirror Case includes a mirror and 100 sheets in a slimmer case—best for quick checks.
Are the sheets in compacts the same as the packs? ▼
Yes. Same sheets, same material. The compact just gives you a portable case with a mirror.
Are blotting papers better than powder? ▼
They serve different purposes. Blotting paper lifts oil without adding product. Powder adds coverage but can build up. Many people use both—blot first, then powder if needed.
Skin & Usage
Why is my face so oily? ▼
Oily skin is caused by overactive sebaceous glands producing excess sebum. Factors include genetics, hormones, humidity, and skincare products. Blotting paper helps manage shine throughout the day.
Can men use blotting paper? ▼
Absolutely. Blotting paper works for anyone with oily skin, regardless of gender. Many men use them for a shine-free look.
How long does one pack last? ▼
It depends on usage. A 100-sheet pack used 2-3 times daily lasts about 1-2 months. The 50-sheet compact lasts about 2-4 weeks with regular use.
Do blotting papers expire? ▼
While they don't have a strict expiration date, we recommend using them within 2-3 years for best performance. Store in a cool, dry place.
