Short on time before an important meeting, but your skin is shining? Forgot your mattifying wipes? Reach for rolling papers instead.
I've relied on this clever hack for years. After buying pricey mattifying wipes for oily or combination skin from a beauty specialty store, a friend—who smokes—pointed out she uses rolling papers for the same effect. She was spot on.
Far cheaper than wipes, creams, powders, or mattifying fluids, rolling papers deliver identical results. Made from the same thin, absorbent material without unnecessary additives—perfect. Keep a pack in your bag, smoker or not.
Simply press a rolling paper gently onto shiny areas of your face. Once it absorbs your sebum, discard and use a fresh one for a flawless finish. The matte effect is impressive and lasts.

I paid €4.50 for 65 tea tree mattifying sheets (around €7 for 100) at a major retailer. Rolling papers? Just €1 for 100 sheets at any tobacconist.
That's €6 saved per 100 sheets. My go-to choice now.
