This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with oily acne-prone skin: shine, breakouts, blemishes, and enlarged pores. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app.

Works for oily acne-prone skin; other eye cares fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Offers moderate suitability for your oily skin due to niacinamide's seboregulation and humectant actions, but lacks sufficient ingredients for optimal oil control, making it mostly supportive for your acne, blemishes, and breakouts.
- The presence of Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 and Tremella Fuciformis Sporocarp Extract provides excellent plumping and firming for the delicate eye area, offering general skincare benefits like hydration.
- The product is safe for your oily skin, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of harsh ingredients and the inclusion of soothing components like niacinamide and panthenol.

## Questions and answers

### How well does Olay Collagen Peptide 24 work for oily acne-prone skin?

Olay Collagen Peptide 24 Eye Cream works moderately well for oily acne-prone skin, offering safe hydration and soothing benefits around the eyes with little risk of irritation, though it lacks strong oil control. To truly excel on oily skin, a product of this type needs more targeted ingredients that actively manage excess sebum production while keeping the skin balanced and clear.

### Which ingredients make this cream a good fit for oily acne-prone skin?

Niacinamide and panthenol make this cream a good fit for oily acne-prone skin by helping balance oil and soothe blemishes without causing irritation. For this skin type, eye creams also need stronger oil-controlling ingredients to manage excess shine effectively.
Sources: [American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12113650/), [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2025](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40613435/)

### What do Collagen Peptides do for oily acne-prone skin?

Collagen peptides help support skin moisture and elasticity for oily, acne-prone skin, while also helping to balance sebum production. Regular oral intake may improve overall skin texture and help maintain a healthy look without adding heavy oils.
Sources: [Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2016](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26904164/), [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2015](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26362110/)

### What does Niacinamide do for oily acne-prone skin?

Niacinamide helps balance oil production, calms redness, and is unlikely to irritate oily, acne-prone skin while improving blemishes. Clinical tests show it reduces excess oil and helps clear up both inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne breakouts.
Sources: [Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16766489/), [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38299457/)

### Where does this cream go in a skincare routine for oily acne-prone skin?

This eye cream goes on after your moisturizer in the morning and evening routines. An average fit for your oily, acne-prone skin, this product needs stronger oil control ingredients to fully manage shine and breakouts.

### Can I use this cream with retinol, and in what order?

You can use this cream with retinol since it is safe and unlikely to cause irritation on your skin. Apply your retinol treatment first, let it absorb, and then follow with this eye cream to keep the delicate eye area hydrated.
Sources: [American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12113650/)

### How often should I use this cream?

You can use this eye cream daily as part of your routine. It is safe for oily skin and unlikely to cause irritation.
Sources: [American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12113650/)

### Can this cream clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for oily acne-prone skin?

This eye cream is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on your oily, acne-prone skin because it contains soothing ingredients like niacinamide and panthenol, though it does not provide strong oil control. A product of this type needs lighter ingredients and stronger oil-balancing components to keep oily skin completely clear and matte.
Sources: [American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12113650/), [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2025](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40613435/)

### Is this cream fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. Stearyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, cetearyl alcohol, and behenyl alcohol are fatty alcohols, which soften the skin.
