DIY blotting paper

DIY blotting paper

Do you know that there are many alternatives to expensive brand blotting paper. Especially if you have combination and oily skin, blotting paper and mattifying power can be part of you big spending throughout the year.

Here are other alternatives:

Toilet seat paper dispenser: 
          -This sound weird but it proven to be working. They are not dirty because you got it brand new from the packages. They're all clean. just buy small quantity because it can cut into tons of blotting paper

I cut mine and put them the my DIY paper envelope

Gift wrapping paper: 
          -This choice is more fun because there are many design and color that you might like. but there are some concern issue about the ink allergic and color transfer. If you choose this alternative, you might only buy one and test before you would invest more into it.

That is all be said and I hope you will save more on your beauty product.
