How to use oil blotting paper: Should I not rub it on my face? Is there a front and a back?

I am curious about how to use blotting paper.

My nose and forehead get shiny by the afternoon, so I use blotting papers frequently!

Until now, I've been wiping away the oiliness with blotting paper by rubbing it back and forth. Haha.
I heard that it is better to press gently on the skin and then lift it off rather than rubbing it.

And something I suddenly became curious about Distinguishing between the front and back of the tracing paper Is there a separate one?

For the paper or film type, can I use either side?
I'm also curious if there is a designated side for using only the one with powder on it.🤔

If you use oil blotting paper too often, your skin becomes dry, or something like that. Side effects of blotting paper Is there also...?

For those of you who usually use oil blotting paper, how many times a day do you use it?
It controlled oil well and was minimally irritating to the skin Piss-off paper recommendations Please let me know if you have any!
