Pros:

Removes oil from face
Portable
Makes face feel oil-free
Instantly removes excess oil
Won't smudge makeup
Leaves your face matte

Cons:

EXPENSIVE
5 dollars for 50 sheets...
Which means every sheet is 10 cents

If you have oily skin, get this. I remember having oily skin in high school and it the oil would make my face get black heads and pimples. Does not cause break outs. You can see the oil from your face on the sheet. I use one sheet in the morning before I wash my face and I use one in the afternoon/evening when my face has the most oil and when I'm not home.

Pros:

- Gets rid of ALL the oil off your face
- The sheets are SILKY. I've tried another "oil-absorbing sheet" from the Body Shop, and I definitely like Clean and Clear better.
- I don't carry too much oil on my face, so I can cut the sheet in half and use less product, saving my sheets.

Cons:

- Sometimes when I'm wearing make-up, the sheet picks up a little bit of my foundation. I'm not too concerned with it.
-The packaging is flimsy, and the sticky part that picks up each sheet gets worn out, so after a while, you can't get your sheet out that way
- For something a simple as a sheet, I think it's a little on the pricy side, but you get 50 sheets! And I cut mine in half, so I get 100!

I've been repurchasing this product when I run out of it, which means I like the product! It's good but slightly pricy. I'm looking to try out more generic brands like the sheets from CVS to see if there is a significant difference between Clean & Clear and other oil absorbing sheets. Good sheets. You can find them at may places. You can actually see the oil on the sheet which is good, but it becomes more visible to the public eye. They can see all the oil come off your face and onto the sheet! On a side note: The Body Shop blotting tissues I tried absorbed the oil, but had a mineral powder to "matt-ify" your face, and I didn't like that. I also had to use the whole sheet to grab off all my oil. Body Shop sheets are $10 but comes in a two pack with 65 sheets (compared to 50 from Clean & Clear)

Pros:

Seriously removes all oil
leaves your skin feeling tight, and oil free
sold almost everywhere
silky material, not at all like the wax paper kind sold by proactive and otherrs

Cons:

Expensive ($5-6) (they usually have a CVS brand etc for 1 dollar less but the sheets absorb significantly less)

Majorly addicting

If you have oily skin, the feeling they give your skin is tight, oil free, and fresh. you notice when your oily so much more after using these, and it will drive you nuts. I have pretty oily skin but not to crazy, and it takes me ~3 sheets to get all the oil, I think i use 9-15 sheets a day... Its a very expensive habit I may as well take up smoking in stead. I don't think they help acne that much, but they definitely do no harm, and they make your skin look a lot better (no grease or shine). The cool feature about them is when they become saturated with oil they they turn from a blue to transparent s o you know when a sheet is spent. Something annoying also is that they absorb oils from your fingers as well while your using them which is a total waist of the sheets capacity for oil - wearing a latex glove and using them would be ideal but not worth the effort.

Pros:

Removed oil like it promised

Cons:

Skin broke out horribly!!!...Never had this kind of acne problem until I used this product,
Oil came back too soon,
skin became more oily than it ever was before

Seem to only work for certain skin types, my skin was only a bit oily on my nose only but after using it my nose broke out horribly. It took me a while to realize that it was because of this product. I used it on my forehead and IT broke out too into a bunch of tiny bumps. BE CAREFUL and discontinue if it happens to you because these things can be permanent!! (Look up acne cysts on google!!) Also I got mine from Walgreens...which idk if that makes any difference but it might...

Pros:

gets rid of oil without removing makeu[

Cons:

makes skin flakey if used too much or more than once a day in the winter

great product for the "3 o clock shine" as my dermatologist calls it the clean and clear ones are really expensive but the cvs brand name ones are much less expensive and work as well

Pros:

does remove oil/shine instantly

Cons:

i find it makes my face a little dry and sometimes dry skin flakes are exaggerated by it

the product works overall for me when i do need to use it (say if i take a shower at night and by the end of the next day my skin is shiny, or if i go out late and walk the dog the next day before i take a shower). i would recommend using them only when you can see the oil on your face, not if you think it's coming or may be starting. my skin is super super dry, and sometimes i get dry skin on the sides of my nose or lower cheek line, and it can make flaking worse, so you gotta be graceful when you use them. but they do work. in a way i think the mineral oil in them is what turns them clear when they meet with your skins oils so they look like they're working better, and people do have a fascination with gross things so it becomes a selling point.

Pros:

These are great if you're looking to soak up oil quickly.

Cons:

WARNING!! Mineral Oil is a main ingredient....this will contribute to an oily face later on after using them and contributed to more breakouts for me.

When I used to use these, I thought they were great until I realized that using them was giving me more and more pimples. It was very smart of the company to use oil in the indredients... 1) You use them and see a shine-free face 2) A few minutes later or so, your face is oily again 3) You purchase more. buyer beware is all i have to say.

Pros:

-Leaves face matte
-Shows you the oil it absorbs
- Faster than reapplying make-up
- Reduce break-outs
- Doesn't removed make-up
- easy to carry

Cons:

- Slightly pricy, depending on where you buy it (I get generic Wal-greens now and it works just as well)
- Not something you'd want to use in public, as seeing the oil come off can be gross

I'm happiest about the fact that this doesn't remove make-up. I'm 16 years-old and have a 5 minutes break between classes, teachers refuse to allow us restroom breaks, unless we have a doctor's note. Although, it may take a tiny bit off, most make-up stays on so I don't need 10 minutes to reapply. This also helped slightly reduce break-outs. I really like this product, and it's works well.
