Things you need:

Scissors
Soft and thick tissue papers
Translucent setting powder
Small container or envelope

Step 1: Flatten out the tissue papers, if they have any wrinkles keep them pressed under a heavy book for about a day or so.

Step 2: Cut out your tissue paper into small-convenient sized sheets or any other fun shape you like.

Step 3: Power little amount of translucent powder all over the sheets. This would add a mattifying effect to the sheets that would help in blotting away the oil.

Step 4: Shake off the excess powder on the sheet and store them in an envelope or a small container to battle shine anytime and anywhere.
