OOTD: Flower Power part 2



First of all, yes, my last OOTD was all black too.
 Just a coincidence. 

I also have another post titled "flower power" 
cause I lack creativity when making titles. 
how about "float like a flower petal" or "flowery fun" 
or "I'm wearing black even though it's 80 degrees outside"


Oh and also I was sweaty when I took this picture cause it's mighty hot out here.
 So glamorous, I know

Oh and I've worn these things on this blog before 
cause that's how clothes work


My shoes are also cut off but I liked this picture best out of all my awkward poses.
 Don't worry, they're super basic. like me. ya

Battle of the Blotting Sheets



As an oily skin girl, blotting sheets save my life. I've tried a couple brands and decided to review them. I've ranked them from my favorites to worst.

Boscia Pink Peppermint Blotting Linens (100)

Pros
  • Leaves a cool feeling on your face
  • Smells great
  • 1 sheet is enough for my entire face
  • Accessible packaging
  • Won't ruin your makeup
Cons
  • $10 at Sephora


Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets (50)

Pros
  • Doesn't ruin your makeup
  • 1 sheet usually does it
  • about $5 at the drugstore and Ulta
Cons
  • The sticker inside that pulls the sheets out
 loses its sticky-ness
after 10-15 sheets. So it's difficult to take 
a sheet out after


Palladio Oil Absorbing Rice Paper Tissues (40)

Pros
  • about $4 at Ulta
  • Easy packaging
  • absorbs oil well
Cons
  • Leaves powdery finish on your face
  • Powder on the tissue goes everywhere
  • my face looks dry after using these
Zon Cosmedix Oil Control Blotting Tissues(65)

Pros
  • about $6 at Ulta
  • doesn't ruin makeup
  • good packaging
Cons
  • sheets are super thin and small
  • I have to use 2-3 for my entire face

Pros

  • $3 at Target
Cons
  • doesn't pick up any oil
  • sheets are too thin and small
  • to be honest, don't expect much from these

My search for the perfect blotting sheets is never ending. If there are any other brands I should try, leave a comment down below!
