Lost in Translation

Can somebody please translate what this package of Gatsby oil blotting papers says?

I wish I took more language classes in college, sigh.

    The top says “extra strength!” Next to No. 1, it means “absorbing power.” And on the bottom line, it says “extra strength blotting sheets” (or more literally, face oil paper). Sorry, I don’t know what the last two lines say. 🙂

    The last two lines say that because it’s a super-absorbing film, it even absorbs the oil from deep within the pores.

    I use these and they’re great. Gatsby also makes oil blotting papers with translucent powder on them – those are great too!
