As I've mentioned several times in my other beauty related reviews, I have an oily T-zone and get quite curious when I hear about products that help to combat the oil. Even though I have used a few creams, I do tend to cringe at the ingredients list! When I heard about the Clean & Clear sheets, they instantly appealed to me. They are super compact and very simple. I ended up purchasing two different types of oil blotting sheets from ebay: Clean&Clear and Gatsby (Japanese brand.) The Clean&Clear pack was bought for £3.45 over 2 years ago. Please note that there is a very slight difference in my pack in that the labelling is "Oil control film" and ...  Read the complete review

I have very oily skin and have tried numerous different things throughout the years. These oil absorbing sheets from clean and clear were suggested to me so I thought I would try them out. They come in packs of 50 and basically look like sheets of tracing paper, they are a bit like sugar paper really and have a slight chalky feel to them. They claim to remove excess oil and eliminate shine and do this without smudging make-up or leaving any visable trace of powder behind. After using the sheets I agree that it does what it suggests it will, but the effects are only short lived. My face is oil free for around 45 minutes to an hour before I need to ...  Read the complete review

I have really oily skin. In the summer my skin is even oilier, especially by mid-afternoon. For me this is the worst part of the day, because not only does the shine of my oily skin make people notice you. But the oil makes your pores look huge. YUK! Over the years I’ve used many beauty products to stop the oil. Anti-Shine powders, soaps and creams. I received a free sample of Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing sheets, in one of my magazines. So I thought I would give them a go. Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing sheets promise to move oil without the use of powder, which usually clog pores. They also promise not to smudge make-up. The ...  Read the complete review

I once got a sample of these oil absorbing sheets and was quite impressed. I recommended them to a friend interested in buying some beauty products and now she swears by them. I think we can put this down to a good product rather than the almighty word of me... These come in packets of 50. They're small blue sheets that you rub on the oiler parts of your face and, like the name suggests, they absorb the oil. The sheet of blue turns darker where the oil is absorbed and you can really feel the difference. The price is about... oh, I can't remember. However if you pop into your local SuperDrug or Boots, you'll be sure to see them for a ...  Read the complete review

I have been using these oil blotting sheets for two years now, but only recently discovered that they contain mineral oil! I did not accept this at first, but after a little research, it was confirmed that Clean & Clear did use mineral oil as a base for these sheets! I've heard that the reasoning behind them using mineral oil is because once you've absorbed your own oil, the sheet just adds more oil to your face so you'll have to use another one in about half an hour or so. This way they'll make sure you go back for more. After I stopped using this product, i noticed my skin was less oily by far, and i had less clogged pores! you can use a paper ...  Read the complete review
