Global InformationAburatorigami information
Aburatorigami (あぶらとり紙, lit. 'oil removal paper') is a traditional Japanese facial oil blotting paper. Aburatorigami absorbs excess oil, thereby eliminating shine from the face. Aburatorigami has traditionally been used by kabuki actors and geisha when wearing oshiroi (traditional white makeup), to keep makeup looking fresh throughout performances.
In modern times it has been growing in popularity for everyday use amongst women and men for its various skincare and makeup benefits.[1] Aburatorigami also works well to keep the balance of water and oil in the skin and prevents skin problems.[2]
