    A depuffing serum for tired eyes. Reduces appearance of eye contour pigmentation and of puffiness

    This light-textured formula contains an extremely high 5% concentration of caffeine, supplemented with highly-purified Epigallocatechin Gallatyl Glucoside (EGCG). Independent studies have shown that topical use of each of caffeine and EGCG can help reduce looks of puffiness and of dark circles in the eye contour. Additional studies have shown that caffeine can also reduce the appearance of cellulite. 

    Notes: 

    1. Hollowness in the eye contour as a result of structure of sub-dermal tissues like fat and bone can result in visible shadows under the eyes. This shadow, which is not to be mistaken for dark circles, cannot be addressed with topical skincare including this formula.

    2. Fat deposits under the eye contour can create permanent puffiness in this area. This type of deposit cannot be improved with topical skincare, including this formula.

    3. Supplied in UV-protective packaging as EGCG is sensitive to light.

Testers' review

This is a yellowish slippery serum that claims to reduces the puffiness and darkness around the eyes. While I do not have puffiness I can attest about its ability to diminish darkness. I think the caffeine in combination with humectants does a great job at plumping the skin around the eye to hide the darkness. The effect is not permanent but visible right after use.

Made under eyes darker

I normally have great luck with the Ordinary products, but this made me wonder if it was making any darkness under my eyes worse. It did not de-puff anything either. Don't recommend :(

Over all, a good serum

I have been using this serum for almost a year now and I find that it only works to brighten my dark circles if it's used frequently, (twice daily). One concern I do have is if you have longer bottom lashes, it bleaches the ends after a few uses. Nothing significant tho. :)

I received The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG 30ml in exchange for my review. It helps your under eye appearance. It deletes dark & puffy. It does make your skin feel taught and tighter when The ordinary caffeine solution 5% + EGCG 30 ml is drying on your skin. This is a thicker solution. It doesn't run immediately when you put it on your skin. It does take some people a few days to see some results , some people can feel it working immediately and it can also take a month for you to notice real obvious results. The ordinary Caffeine & Egcg solution helps with dark circles, puffiness, wrinkles , hyperpigmentation, and fine lines. It is good for your under eye area and your skin. It can also help with acne because it has anti inflammatory properties. The mixture of the caffeine and the ecgc from green tea leaves also helps to get rid of cellulite and improves skins elasticity. The Egcg also increases the suppleness of your skin . So during the day is good to put this solution on. The ordinary Caffeine & Egcg solution helps your blood vessels dilate and the darkness and puffiness go away. And it's actually good to put it on at night. Because, at night the antioxidants that get dulled out because of the sun actually get to work at night. At night it prevents water loss repairs your DNA and protects your skin barrier. The Egcg reduces your skin sebum excretions and exfoliates your skin . So you can see that this The ordinary Caffeine & Egcg solution is actually a great solution for your under eye area as well as for skincare. You could actually use it all over your body if you wanted. Check it out.

Great eye serum

This is my 2nd bottle. I have dark circles and puffy underwear due to hereditary and this has helped deep off my eyes in the morning while hydrating. And I love how it is affordable. Would highly recommend anyone looking for an eye cream that the puffs.

I like this eye serum.

I really like this product. It helped brighten my under eyes as well as depuffing them. It’s oil free and alcohol free, so it doesn’t dry your skin out. To me, I thought it was hydrating. It’s also great for all skin types.

Does not disappoint!

I have puffiness and dark circles under my eyes, and The Ordinary Cafeine+ EGCG worked wonders for it! It doesn’t leave any residue or oily feeling, just leaves your eyes feeling and looking their best! I’ve tried so so many things and I’m so glad I found this! I’m a regular user of The Ordinary Products, and they never disappoint! So if you’re apprehensive about trying it out, go for it!

Ah may zing

This stuff right herrrrrre. Is AH-mayzing. In a few minutes my dark circles are lighter and the sunkeness of my eyes is not as noticeable. I have to admit i did not think it was going to do this much so quickly. I am amazed.

shot of espresso!

Obsessed with this serum! 🌟 Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG is my new go-to for those late-night study sessions and early morning classes. It’s like a shot of espresso for my under eyes—bye-bye, dark circles and puffiness. The best part? It’s lightweight, non-greasy, and fits perfectly into my skincare routine. If you're looking for something to keep you looking fresh and awake, this is it! I received something in exchange for this post.

I don’t usually use eye serums but I know the eye area is important to pay attention to. Was super thrilled to try this. So far so good. Nothing noticeable (no immediate puffing, etc) but I don’t think that’s totally possible. Super happy
