Page built Nov 8, 2026How the Fit score works
Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate suitability for oily skin as Niacinamide helps with seboregulation and Hyaluronic Acid provides humectant action, though it lacks sufficient ingredients for optimal oil control.
- The inclusion of Red Seaweed Extract offers supportive hydration for oily shine, but it is not specifically targeted for this concern.
- The product is safe for your oily skin with no risks of irritation due to the absence of prohibited or harsh ingredients.
How to apply
- Could be used as part of your AM or PM routine every day to keep your face fresh.
- Apply this moisturizer after cleansing and toning, but right before your SPF in the morning.
- Gently press a small amount into your skin and let it absorb fully.
- Apply on clean, slightly dry skin to help control that oily shine.
- Avoid the eye area and do a quick patch test before your first use.
People Say
★4.6Overall rating based on 200+ reviewsUsers consistently praise this product for delivering a "glass skin" glow and deep hydration without leaving a sticky residue, often noting that it makes skin feel noticeably plumper and smoother. While many appreciate the preventative anti-aging ingredients like Volufiline, some reviewers feel the dramatic wrinkle-filling claims are exaggerated, viewing it more as an excellent barrier-repairing hydrator than a miracle cure for deep lines.

Questions and answers
How well does SUNGBOON EDITOR Deep Collagen Anti-wrinkle Cream In Serum work for oily skin?
This product works moderately well for oily skin since niacinamide helps balance oil and hyaluronic acid adds lightweight hydration without irritation, though it lacks enough ingredients for optimal oil control. Oily skin needs a lightweight moisturizer with peptides and barrier-supporting ingredients that hydrate without heavy oils or clogging pores.
Which ingredients make this cream in serum a good fit for oily skin?
Niacinamide helps control excess oil while hyaluronic acid and red seaweed extract provide light hydration without clogging pores. Because this serum only offers moderate suitability, an ideal moisturizing treatment for oily skin needs a lightweight texture with peptides and barrier-supporting ingredients that manage shine without heavy oils.
What does Collagen do for oily skin?
Collagen helps keep oily skin hydrated and balanced without adding heaviness. It improves overall skin condition and helps maintain moisture levels, but an oily skin routine also needs ingredients that control excess oil and clear pores.
Dermatology Practical & Conceptual, 2022Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2024
What does Hyaluronic Acid do for oily skin?
Hyaluronic acid helps oily skin by reducing extra oil and sebum production without causing irritation. Clinical studies show it successfully balances oil levels while keeping the skin comfortable.
Where does this cream in serum go in a skincare routine for oily skin?
Put this moisturizing treatment in your evening routine after cleansing and before your moisturizer. A complete routine for oily skin also needs stronger oil-controlling ingredients to manage shine properly.
Can I use it with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this moisturizing treatment with retinol by applying it after your retinol product to help keep your skin comfortable and minimize irritation. This product is unlikely to cause irritation on oily skin, but to get the best results for your skin type, a product of this type needs stronger oil-controlling ingredients and mattifying agents.
How often should I use it?
You can use this moisturizing treatment in your evening routine. Using it daily is unlikely to cause irritation on oily skin, as it has a safe formula without harsh ingredients.
Can it clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for oily skin?
This product is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for oily skin because it is free of harsh ingredients, though it lacks sufficient oil-control properties for an ideal fit. Oily skin often needs lightweight hydrators and targeted balancing ingredients to manage shine best.
Can I use it around the eyes or on my body?
You can use this moisturizing treatment around your eyes and on your body since it has a safe makeup with no harsh ingredients. The eyelid skin is especially thin and may benefit from the gentle hydration provided by its ingredients.
Is it fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
