Skylab Beauty Premium Blotting Sponge Compact for Refreshing Makeup and Removing Unwanted Oils - A Unique Alternative To Blotting Paper Or Blotting Sheets – Includes 2 Blotting Sponges & Compact Case

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this product! This blotting sponge does wonders and perfectly removes that unwanted shine and leaves my makeup the same way as I applied it. It truly is a unique alternative to the blotting papers. My other favorite part is that I get to reuse it over and over again and it comes with two sponges! Another bonus is that the compact case comes with a mirror which is perfectly handy for makeup touchups. It fits perfectly in my hand and is small enough to slide in my purse and always with me on the go.

This did not work for me at all. It did not blot or remove my facial oil. I immediately returned it. Use the powdered blotting tissues instead, they work great.

This product is great! I have always had oily skin and have always resorted to using the oil blotting sheets until I found this. I bought this hoping it would do the trick and it does! I find that if you dab too hard, it will take your makeup off so be careful when using it if you've got full face foundation on. This is great too because you can take the sponge and hand wash it to use for additional use! Comes in a cute compact and has been great so far!

I’ve been using blotting papers for years but I found this and thought it would be a great alternative. Reusable, and therefore way cheaper. However the product does not work for me. It barely soaks up any oil and it takes all my makeup off which is obviously a problem. Guess I’ll be going back to my trusty blotting papers!

Okay, I hate posting only 3 stars for this, but here's whats up... this product isn't there yet. It's a great idea, it's something I hope companies keep working on, and I'm actually REALLY thankful to have it as a backup when I'm out of blotting sheets... But it isn't good enough to completely *replace* blotting sheets yet. It'll take a bit of shine away if you press enough, but it's nowhere near as absorbent as the disposable sheets are. I want to love this product- I love how it's reusable and easy to wash/maintain and the little compact and the whole idea... but it's got a little further to go.

Very happy with this purchase. I saw it recommended while browsing for blotting paper and im so happy i found it. Love the packaging and that there is a mirror for touch ups. Great idea to have two sponges for those days im too lazy to wash and dry out the one i was using. This does a great job of removing oil without effecting my makeup. I will have some transfer of powder onto the sponge but that is not unexpected. There is no waste using this and i love that i dont have to worry about having to buy more blotting paper. I find this works better than blotting papers in the sense that the sponge helps blend the makeup that is already on my face. I am not leaving patchy areas where i pressed blotting paper. It sort of freshens up my makeup after wearing it all day if that makes sense. Washing the sponges do not effect their reuse.The only downside i can even think of is that i wish there was some sort of storage for the sponge that is not in use. The extra sponge i put in a tin so i dont feel like its collecting dust or anything when i am not using it.

I purchased this item for my teenager who is obsessed with unique cosmetic tools. She absolutely loves it. She commented on how aesthetically pleasing the compact is when opening the box. She loves the blotting sponge as an alternative to blotting papers and feels that the sponge works better on managing her oily skin. The compact and blotting pad hold-up so well in her bag, unlike blotting papers. The quality of both are better than I expected for the price. We'll be ordering many more for holiday gifts!! This is such a unique item that will be sure to make all the teenage girls and women on my list very happy.

I wanted to like these. Truly I did. It sounded like such a good idea, using a washable sponge to blot my skin rather than papers. But I quickly found that it just. didn't. work.First of all, I HATED the little compact. My skin is super oily so I not only have to blot a couple of times per day, but I have to carry a powder compact so I can touch up. This thing took up way too much space. I did not use it for very long.I kept at it with the sponges for several weeks, though. I noticed that they didn't blot completely. They (unlike most of the papers on the market) pulled off a lot of my makeup. And one of mine arrived with a dent in it that has taken this long to pop out.I hope these are better at applying makeup than they are at blotting it. Because that's what they're getting relegated to.
