Frequently asked questions
FAQUse with caution. While the formula contains no retinoids, salicylic acid, or hydroquinone, it does include several essential oils (lavender, eucalyptus, neroli, and rose) that some healthcare professionals advise limiting during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Always consult your OB-GYN or midwife before incorporating new products with essential oils into your routine during this time.
No, this facial oil is not fungal acne safe. It contains multiple ingredients known to feed malassezia yeast, including avocado oil, olive oil, evening primrose oil, and caprylic/capric triglyceride. These are rich in fatty acids and esters that can aggravate fungal acne. If you are prone to malassezia folliculitis, look for oils with a simpler composition like squalane or MCT oil (C8 only).
Yes, this facial oil can generally be used alongside most actives. Apply water-based serums (vitamin C, AHA, BHA, retinol) first on clean skin, allow them to absorb, then layer the oil on top as an occlusive finishing step. The oil helps seal in the active ingredients. However, if your skin is sensitive or you are new to retinol, introduce one product at a time to avoid irritation. Using strong exfoliants (AHA/BHA) and this oil with essential oils simultaneously may increase sensitivity in reactive skin.
This oil is best suited for dry, very dry, and mature skin types that need deep nourishment, firming, and a radiance boost. It also works well for normal skin. For combination skin, nighttime use is recommended. For oily skin, the brand suggests using it at night only as the last step. It is not ideal for acne-prone skin due to the moderately comedogenic avocado and olive oils in the formula.
You will notice an instant glow and softer skin immediately after the first application. Within 1 hour, clinical trials show 3x improved hydration. After 1–2 weeks of consistent use, skin texture and plumpness improve noticeably. The full anti-aging benefits — including firmer-feeling skin (4x) and visible wrinkle reduction (up to 80%) — become apparent after 4–8 weeks of regular use, based on the brand's clinical trials conducted on 30 participants.
Apply this facial oil as one of the last steps in your routine, after your serum and moisturizer but before sunscreen in the morning. The general order is: cleanser, toner, serum, moisturizer, then facial oil, then sunscreen (AM). You can also mix 2–3 drops directly into your moisturizer for a simplified routine. For oily skin, the brand recommends using it at night only as the final step.
This oil has a moderate comedogenic rating of 3 out of 5. The first two ingredients are avocado oil (comedogenic rating 2–3) and olive oil (comedogenic rating 2–4), both of which are moderately pore-clogging. While the brand describes the product as non-comedogenic, individuals with oily or acne-prone skin may experience congestion. If you are prone to clogged pores, patch test on a small area first or consider lighter alternatives like rosehip or squalane oil.
The recommended period after opening (PAO) is 12 months. Since this is a pure oil-based formula with natural plant oils and vitamin E as a stabilizer, it can be susceptible to oxidation over time. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and keep the dropper bottle tightly sealed. If the oil changes color, develops an off smell, or becomes rancid, discontinue use. With twice-daily use of 2–3 drops, the 30ml bottle typically lasts 2–3 months.
Verdict: Charlotte Tilbury Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil is a beautifully formulated luxury facial oil that delivers an undeniable instant glow and spa-like sensory experience. The blend of superfood seed oils provides excellent nourishment for dry and mature skin, and the patented collagen matrix shows promising firming results over time. However, the premium $85 price tag for 30ml is hard to justify when the base formula relies primarily on common plant oils (avocado and olive), and the strong essential oil fragrance limits its appeal for sensitive skin. It excels as a luxurious nighttime treatment for dry and mature skin types, but acne-prone, oily, and fungal acne-prone individuals should look elsewhere. If budget is a concern, alternatives like the Revolution Pro Miracle Oil or The Ordinary Rosehip Oil deliver similar nourishing benefits at a fraction of the cost.

Understanding Silicones
If you've ever used a skincare, makeup or beauty product that's made your skin look and feel smoother tempoarily - it's likely contained Silicone. They are a popular class of ingredients found in cosmetics due to their smooth, soft, easy-to-spread and smooth properties that help creates an artificial layer/barrier on top of skin or hair (commonly found in conditioners).
For the same reasons they are popularly used, they are also commonly avoided. Anecdotally, many individuals have reported that Silicones cause/excerbate breakouts, irritation, cause a feeling of skin being unable to breathe, cause clumping of cosmetic products and find it difficult to wash off. As a result, those who find them problematic are avoiding them and increasingly, cosmetic companies are avoiding them as well.
If you have had bad experiences with Silicones in the past, or suspect they are problematic then look out for the tick on the Silicone-free label.

Understanding the Identified Contact Allergens
The EU's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) has identified and established 26 cosmetic ingredients that are likely contact allergens (potential to cause skin allergies) as demonstrated in clinical or epidemiological studies. The EU's SCCS have recommend cosmetic companies to disclose them on the labels if used and in cases where the concentration exceeds 0.001% in leave-on products and 0.01% in rinse-off products, then they must be labelled.
Look out for the tick on the EU-Allergen free label to know your cosmetic is free from any of the 26 identified cosmetic ingredients.

Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Understanding Fungal Acne (Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia Folliculitis)
Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia folliculitis or simply known as Fungal Acne is a persistent acne-like condition that commonly responds poorly to traditional acne-treating methods. Unlike most cases of Acne where bacteria is the culprit, Fungi is the culprit of Fungal Acne (Hence the name!). There are certain classes & groups of ingredients that have been shown to promote and feed the growth of the Fungal Acne, Fungi such as fatty acids, oils, esters, polysorbates and fermented ingredients.
For more information regarding Fungal Acne, please visit Simple Skincare Science (f.c) - #3 of our Recommend Skincare Resources for an amazing comprehensive guide!
Please Read: How to use the Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Label
At SkinCarisma, we've done our best to identify as many ingredients as possible but note the fungal-free label may not be 100% accurate due to the complexconditions and combination of ingredients that malezzeria can thrive on.
Additionally, products that may contain ingredients that have shown to feed Malassezia may not neccessarily exacerbate the condition due to concentration of ingredient used in the product, this information is simply not available on the products.
As a result, please note this is only an experimental label that can be best used to possible identify problematic products you have used in the past. It is in no way a perfect identifier nor a predictor in whether or not it will exacerbate or cause fungal acne. It will continue to be worked on as more information and research comes to light.
If you find any ingredients you believe should be included, please email us at snails@skincarisma.com.
Disclaimer
Due to the lack of substantial research into this area it is very likely there are other ingredients and class/groups of ingredients that could feed Fungal Acne which have not been indentified.
The Fungal-Safe label does not constitute as medical advice. For your specific case, always consult your medical professiona such as dermatologist, physician, pharmacist, or health care provider - please read our medical disclaimer for more information.
What are Notable Effects & Ingredients?
Ever used a product that promised a certain effect but provided no results? It might not have contained any notable ingredients that could have been responsible for that promised effect. It doesn't matter what the marketing or packaging «promises» it can do, if it doesn't contain anything that can help - then the likelihood of it helping is low.
We help you identify key notable ingredients that have been shown to help with effects such as acne-fighting, brightening, UV-protection, wound healing & anti-aging to help you achieve your skincare goals smarter. Please note that different notable ingredients have varying levels of research behind them, some are extremely well proven yet some have mixed research in their efficacy.
Pro Tip Alert!
Just because a product doesn't contain any notable ingredients doesn't mean it's bad. And a product with notable ingredients (or even many) doesn't necessarily guarantee the efficacy of the product performing these effects either. There are other factors such as ingredient quality, concentration and formulation that will ultimately determine this.
Be smart and use this as just a starting point for you to make more informed and smarter choices and compare it with reviews to see if the product is right for you

What is the Ingredient Safety Breakdown?
Ingredient Safety Breakdown refers to the percentage % of ingredients in different risk categories as classified by EWG (Environment Working Group) if they are available. There are almost endless cosmetic ingredients and they are one of the few organisations globally that have assigned ratings to a lot of the more commonly used ingredients which is why we reference them.
Pro Tip Alert!
EWG is seen by many to be more on the alarmist side in their assignment of health ratings resulting in rating ingredients as riskier than they actually are. We recommend using this a reference point rather than a strict guide of ingredient safety and to always do further research if into ingredients that you may find suspect.
