More than one way to use the Geisha Face Blotting Paper

  • Set your Makeup: Blot your face after applying your liquid makeup to absorb excess oil found in your products. Doing this step before powdering ensures you use less product for a non-cakey look.
  • Reduce Shine: Control unwanted shine without powdering with the Geisha Face Blotting Paper. Gently pat your skin to remove excess oil from your nose, chin or forehead. Remove unwanted shine, but never dull your glow. 
  • Make your lipstick last: Blot your lipstick after application to remove excess oil. This will help create a stain-like effect to extend its wear. Then, apply another coat for a longer-lasting matte finish.
  • Keep your pores clean: Excess oil can clog pores and cause blemishes. Pat your skin with our ultra-absorbent sheets to get rid of that excess oil.
  • Prepare your brows and eyelids for makeup: Lift oil before you apply your eyeliner or brow product to ensure the product goes on dry skin, making it last even longer.
  • Post care after tattoo or microblading: Lift excess oil from skin to prevent oil from interfering with your new ink

    Blotting papers

    My gold standard used to be the other Japanese brand that have been unavailable in Canada for quite some time now.
    These ones are ok but a bit too thin for me. The size is great and it looks like they absorb the oil - I have very oily skin.

    Perfect blotting paper

    I have oily skin and blotting paper is one of my most frequently purchased products. Amaterasu's blotting paper is far and away the best one I've tried. I use one to three sheets/day. I typically use it to blot off excess oil before reapplying sunscreen.

    This blotting paper is traditional aburatorigami paper made from abaca leaf. This stands in contrast to most blotting sheets available that are made from plastic, unnecessary dyes, etc. I don't wear makeup, but it's my understanding that aburatorigami paper has been used for centuries by kabuki actors and geisha, so if it doesn't greatly disturb their makeup it should be good for your typical everyday makeup.

    Also, I love the packaging. It's very easy to grab a single sheet without other sheets coming out (other brands have poorly designed packaging). The price is totally reasonable for 100 sheets of high quality blotting paper. Compared to other brands that sell 50 sheets for $7-8 for lower quality sheets.

    I will definitely continue to buy this product for the foreseeable future and recommend it to friends. Give it a try!

    Works very well! Love the packaging.

    I've tried different blotting paper options and this is the best so I understand the higher price compared to most.

    Sheets are a great size

    Other brands are too small or too big and often are powdered; the Amaterasu sheets are the perfectly size between big enough to be useful and not so big they are wasteful. And they totally do the trick/blot.

    Really good blotting paper

    I've such oily skin and this blotting paper delicately lift the excess oil beautifully each time. The ones I used to have were much thicker and also felt coarse on the skin. But this one is so different and much nicer. It feels nice on my skin.
