When it comes to skincare, I try to keep things simple. I don’t chase every viral product, but I do want something that keeps my skin hydrated, healthy, and youthful. Recently, I picked up the Olay Super Collagen Peptides Moisturiser — a product that promises plumper, firmer, and smoother-looking skin.
After using it consistently for 6 weeks, I’m ready to share my honest thoughts.

I’m in my late 30s and have started noticing subtle signs of ageing: faint smile lines, a little dullness, and less firmness than before. I wasn’t looking for a miracle cream, but I did want a moisturizer that would:
- Keep my skin hydrated all day
- Soften fine lines
- Work well with my existing skincare routine
The words “collagen peptides” immediately caught my attention because peptides are known for supporting firmness and helping skin look bouncier. Plus, Olay is a brand I already trust — accessible, affordable, and reliable. My mom and dad have been using Olay since ages and they have fantastic skin!
The Olay Super Collagen Peptides Moisturiser comes in a red sleek glass jar. While it looks pretty on my vanity, I do prefer pump packaging for hygiene reasons. To avoid dipping fingers in, I used a clean spatula to scoop it out.
When I first opened it, I noticed:
- Texture: A lightweight cream-gel consistency (not too thick, not runny).
- Fragrance: A soft cosmetic scent. Personally, I don’t mind it, but those with fragrance sensitivity might.
- Feel: Smooth and silky — it spreads easily without tugging.
- Absorption: Within a minute, it sank into my skin without leaving stickiness.
- Finish: A soft, smooth, hydrated finish. No greasy residue.
- Makeup compatibility: Foundation applied smoothly on top, no pilling.
- Day & night use: Works equally well under sunscreen during the day and layered with serums at night.
- My skin felt instantly hydrated and comfortable.
- Cheeks looked plumper and fresher.
- No irritation, redness, or breakouts.
- Worked well with my existing products.
- Consistent hydration: My skin stayed moisturised throughout the day, even in air-conditioned rooms.
- Smoother fine lines: The smile lines around my mouth looked softer. Not gone, but less noticeable.
- Plumper skin: My skin had more bounce and elasticity.
- Brighten overall look: I looked fresher, like my skin had more life.
- No irritation: Gentle enough to use alongside retinol at night.
- Lightweight, non-greasy texture
- Provides lasting hydration
- Skin looks plumper and smoother
- Works well under makeup and sunscreen
- Affordable compared to luxury peptide creams
- Gentle and non-irritating
- Jar packaging (less hygienic than a pump)
- Contains fragrance (may not suit very sensitive skin)
- Subtle results — not a dramatic anti-wrinkle solution
I know this brand very well, in my country it is called OLAZ and have tried for years their product (over 15 years ago) and can confirm your conclusion, good hydration, incresed elasticity, firmness and radiance but it doesn’t do much on already existing wrinkles. In my opinion, one should use products for problems that only starts experiencing so that those products can be effective, maybe I'm wrong but had some results doing so until now...🤪
