Questions and answers

How well does Dr. Lili Fan Age Defying Eye Serum work for acne-prone skin?

This eye serum works well enough for acne-prone skin, though other products fit it better because this formula does not specifically target blemishes. An eye care product for this skin needs ingredients like niacinamide and soothing hydrators that tackle breakouts while keeping the area balanced.

Which ingredients make this serum a good fit for acne-prone skin?

Sodium hyaluronate and glycerin help attract moisture while probiotic extracts support the skin barrier. An eye care product for acne-prone skin also needs ingredients like niacinamide to effectively target breakouts and blemishes while keeping skin calm.

What does Hyaluronic Acid do for acne-prone skin?

Hyaluronic acid helps acne-prone skin by soothing irritation, calming redness, and keeping the skin balanced without clogging pores. When combined with targeted ingredients like zinc oxide, it may also help reduce breakouts.

Biomedicines, 2025Drug Delivery, 2017

What does Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17 do for acne-prone skin?

Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17 is mainly used to help lengthen and thicken eyelashes rather than to treat acne-prone skin. Because acne-prone skin needs products that keep pores clear and calm breakouts, this ingredient does not provide those benefits.

Where does this serum go in a skincare routine for acne-prone skin?

This serum works well as an evening treatment step after cleansing and before moisturizing, though products for acne-prone skin generally need ingredients that directly target blemishes and clogged pores.

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

You can use this serum with retinol by applying the serum first to give your skin light moisture and barrier support before putting on your retinol. It is unlikely to irritate your skin, though an eye serum for acne-prone skin needs blemish-clearing ingredients to properly target breakouts.

How often should I use this serum?

You can use this eye serum daily, applying it in your morning and evening routines as it is gentle and safe for your skin. While it provides good moisture and firming benefits, it does not target acne and blemishes, so acne-prone skin needs products containing ingredients like salicylic acid or niacinamide to help clear breakouts.

Can this serum clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for acne-prone skin?

This serum is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on acne-prone skin, as it contains no harsh or irritating ingredients. However, because the formula does not specifically target blemishes, acne-prone skin often needs a product with ingredients like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide to actively clear pores and prevent breakouts.

Is this serum fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.

What the research says

  • A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women.

  • Topical application of Bifida Ferment Lysate strengthens the skin barrier function by upregulating barrier and antimicrobial peptide genes, exhibiting strong antioxidant properties, and decreasing inflammatory cytokine secretion in vitro.

    Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2023
  • A multi-modal methodology combining MALDI-MSI, in vivo RCM, echography, and histology revealed age-related decreases in extracellular matrix and epidermal-dermal junction proteins and undulation depth, while a blend of palmitoyl oligopeptide and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 improved subepidermal low-echogenic band thickness, density, and extracellular matrix structure compared to placebo.

    Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2015
  • Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, acetyl hexapeptide-8, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-10 significantly increased type III collagen levels in human dermal fibroblasts following UV exposure, with their combination demonstrating a greater effect in vitro and enhancing type I, III, and IV collagen levels in ex vivo skin tissues compared to individual components.

    International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2026
  • Topical application of 0.1% hyaluronic acid formulations of different molecular weights led to significant improvements in skin hydration and elasticity, with low-molecular-weight formulations also significantly reducing wrinkle depth in seventy-six female subjects compared to a vehicle control.

    Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2011
  • Topical application of hyaluronic acid in conjunction with free gingival graft significantly reduced donor site postoperative pain until day 7 compared to normal saline, with no significant differences in graft dimensions or patient satisfaction.

    Clinical Oral Investigations, 2022
  • Treatment with a hyaluronic acid-containing mouth rinse or topical gel led to significant lesion reduction, pain relief, and normalization of lesion color in adult patients with minor recurrent aphthous stomatitis, with the gel formulation showing an earlier healing onset at 3 days.
