I wish I had blotting papers last weekend when it was 80 degrees outside and all my daughter and her friends were in there prom dresses sweating and ruining their makeup.
April 18th, 2011 at 5:57 PMI recently had a Mother/Daughter makeover in NYC and it looked fab!!! I could have used the Tatcha papers to just freshen it up and keep it looking super great a little longer!!
April 18th, 2011 at 9:15 PMI am trying to look for Tatcha page on Facebook but I don’t see it. I am a fan of Beauty In The Bag on Facebook. I am a subscriber of Beauty In The Bag via Email. I would like to have Tatcha in handy now! lol.
April 19th, 2011 at 1:32 AMI wish I would have had these lovely papers on my first date with my husband. I was so nervous and could have used these to wipe up some oil and give me a great complexion!

April 19th, 2011 at 2:15 PMOil blotting sheets come in handy during the Spring and Summer. Those are the times when my face becomes very oily. I remember when I was about to graduate from high school, we were all waiting in line checking our makeup and hair, and my face was so oily. I couldn’t leave to go to the bathroom to get a paper towel. And even if I could, the paper towel would have destroyed my makeup and everyone wants to look good in their graduation picture. The heat and sweat didn’t help my oily skin either, but at least I wasn’t the only one with a shiny face. =P
April 19th, 2011 at 2:22 PMOn Friday I went to a concert with some friends–it was crazy hot but lots of fun–after we went to grab something to eat I was horrified to find I was shiny I wish I had TATCHA papers with me.
April 19th, 2011 at 3:59 PMoh I would have loved to have the blotting hseets on my wedding day, but any hot day–I would need the oil blotting sheets on my tzone.
April 21st, 2011 at 11:53 AMI have an oily “t-zone” and these would come in handy practically any day…but especially now, with the weather getting warmer!
April 21st, 2011 at 2:19 PMI have an oily “t-zone” and these would come in handy practically any day…but especially now, with the weather getting warmer! I couldn’t find Tatcha on facebook :/
April 21st, 2011 at 2:21 PMI wish I had TATCHA handy on my first date with my now husband. It was a steamy July 4th weekend and we were walking through the hot streets of NYC. I could feel the moistness on my face and my body. TATCHA surely would’ve done the trick, at least for my face!
April 21st, 2011 at 2:24 PMI would have LOVED to have had them the day I had my daughter! As an older mom, 41 when I had her, the pictures that were taken after I had her were horrible. Would have loved to have been able to freshen up quickly and looked half way decent during the once in a lifetime pictures!

Will keep trying.
April 21st, 2011 at 2:45 PMWhen a ran into my old boyfriend.I would have had time to reach in my purse before he got close enough to see the oil on my nose!
April 21st, 2011 at 2:48 PMI could use these any time I get my picture taken!
April 21st, 2011 at 3:18 PMI sure wished I had the Tatcha’s during a job interview at a correctional facility. I was so nervous that I could feel my face melting off..I was wanting to shout Tatcha’s take me away!!!!!
April 21st, 2011 at 3:32 PMI’m very oily and I had a June wedding. It was 95 degrees and muggy/rainy! I had to redo my foundation halfway through the reception. I WISH I had Tatcha. I like them on Facebook too. Thanks!
April 21st, 2011 at 3:59 PMThe last wedding I was in, which happened to be my own!
April 21st, 2011 at 5:07 PMI have recently just found blotting sheets and wondered where have they been all my life??? WOULD love something like this for Mother’s Day since my kids are too young to get me anything and I very rarely pamper myself!
