What does Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG Eye Serum do for the under-eye area?
The serum targets the appearance of puffiness and dark circles around the eyes. Caffeine visibly energizes the eye area, while epigallocatechin gallatyl glucoside (EGCG), a powerful antioxidant, protects and soothes the delicate skin around the eyes.
How often should I use Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG Eye Serum?
The Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG Eye Serum can be used daily as part of your AM and PM skincare routines. Apply a small amount to the eye contour area after cleansing and before moisturizing.
Can Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG Eye Serum be used with other eye creams or treatments?
Yes. The Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG Eye Serum can be layered under other formulations. When using multiple The Ordinary formulations, apply the Caffeine Solution after cleansers and toners and before the moisturizers and SPF.
How long does it take to see results with Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG Eye Serum?
You may notice a reduction in puffiness within a few days of consistent use. For dark circles and overall improvement in the appearance of the eye area, it may take several weeks of regular application to see more noticeable results.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Actually Helps With Dark Circles and Puffiness
I’ve tried a lot of eye products, but this one genuinely made a difference. The Ordinary’s Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t irritate my skin at all. After using it consistently, my under‑eye area looks brighter and less puffy, and the dark circles have noticeably improved. It’s easy to layer under moisturizer or makeup, and a little goes a long way.🌟 What I Loved• Visible brightening of dark circles after a few weeks• Reduces puffiness and makes eyes look more awake• Lightweight, water‑based formula that absorbs fast and doesn’t feel greasy• Vegan, fragrance‑free, and gentle on sensitive skin• Works well morning and night without causing irritation🎯 OverallThis is an affordable, effective eye serum that delivers real results if you use it consistently. My under‑eyes look brighter, smoother, and less tired. Definitely worth repurchasing.

My dark circles and puffiness are genuinely better — this is a staple now
I’ve tried a lot of eye serums and most either do nothing or irritate my under-eye area. This one is different. I’ve been using it both morning and night and the difference in puffiness alone has been noticeable — especially in the mornings when I’m usually at my worst. My under-eyes look visibly less swollen within minutes of applying it.The dark circles have also faded over consistent use. It’s not an overnight miracle but after a few weeks of twice-daily application I can see a real improvement in tone and brightness under my eyes. The EGCG and caffeine combo seems to genuinely work rather than just being a marketing claim.Texture-wise it’s wonderfully lightweight — absorbs in seconds and layers perfectly under moisturizer and SPF in the morning with zero pilling. For The Ordinary’s price point this is an absolute steal. I’ve already repurchased and I’d recommend it to anyone dealing with tired, puffy eyes. Full five stars without hesitation.

Works 100% for depuffing and making your eyes less tired looking
I love this stuff. I have puffy/baggy eyes — partly genetic, partly getting older, partly due to weight loss (GLP-1 thank you!).Immediately when I put this on I can feel my skin tightening, and the puffiness/bagginess are less noticeable. It’s visibly discernible. Very impressive!I can’t tell that it helps with my dark circles — something else I have unfortunately — and I wouldn’t get this if that’s the primary concern you have.The product itself goes a long way. There’s a lot to it. I find a small peppercorn’s worth is enough for both eyes, under each eye and onto the orbital bone as well as around the side. The product has absolutely no smell — completely scentless as far as I can tell.The product has an oiliness, and quickly dries, first becoming a bit tacky before drying completely. It’s not advertised as being a moisturizer, nor would I trust it as such. I apply an under-eye cream afterwards (Brickell brand, but frankly any good brand would work).I have a small number of skincare products that I’ll always use, and this is one of them. It worked right away. The price is right. Even if you’re on the fence, since the price is so low, I’d try it out to see if it’ll work for you.

Smoothing
I’ve been using The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG and it’s good for the eyes. Over time, I noticed reduced puffiness and a fresher look, but it definitely takes a while to see results. The lightweight formula absorbs easily and layers well with other products. It’s not an instant fix, but with consistent use, it works.

It definitely works!!!
Amazing product. I have dark eyelids and area and I bought this product to even my skin! It works and is moisturizing. I love The Ordinary products and this product did not disappoint. You don’t need a lot, just a drop on each eye area.

Made my eye twitch!
I have genetic dark circles that get worse when I don’t get enough sleep. I’ve used tons of undereye creams and serums, mostly with middling results. I saw a lot of recommendations online for this one, and due to the low price, I decided to give it a shot. It seems to work okay on the dark circles — it’s not a miracle product, but I noticed a slight difference using it as directed in the morning and at night.However, there was one major issue: within a couple days of starting to use this product, my right eye started twitching at random throughout the day.At first, I didn’t connect the dots. I was in the middle of a busy workweek. I had to wake up much earlier than usual for work or appointments most days. I was also spending more time staring at my laptop screen between work and writing. I figured the twitching was a result of stress and all these other factors — until I decided to do some digging online.I found multiple Reddit threads of other people complaining about eye twitching while using this product. It has to do with the concentration of caffeine in it. (I only drink one cup of coffee a day and rarely have caffeinated sodas, so those weren’t an additional factor.)I discontinued use of this product immediately. The results weren’t good enough to put up with a twitching eye. I’m glad this serum was only $9 and I’m not out a ton of money. I know this product is beloved by a lot of people, but my advice is to proceed with caution.

Love it and highly recommend it!
I’ve been using it for several weeks. It feels lightweight and absorbs quickly, which is perfect for the under-eye area. I’ve noticed it helps reduce puffiness, especially in the mornings, and makes my eyes look a bit more awake. It’s not heavy or sticky, and layers well under moisturizer. For the price, it’s a simple and effective option if you’re looking to depuff and refresh tired eyes.

As someone who often wrestles with insomnia, I turned to The Ordinary’s Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG in hope of easing the tell-tale signs beneath my eyes—and I must say, it has become a quiet ally in my morning routine. The serum is light, quickly absorbed, and free of fragrance, which makes it both refreshing and practical for daily use. Within consistent application, I have noticed a distinct reduction in morning puffiness and a softening of darkened under-eye circles, leaving my eyes looking markedly less fatigued.There is sound science behind its formulation. Caffeine, when applied topically, is known to constrict small blood vessels and reduce fluid accumulation, thereby lessening puffiness (Herman & Herman, 2013). Meanwhile, EGCG, a potent antioxidant derived from green tea, has been shown to protect delicate periorbital skin from oxidative stress and to reduce inflammation (Katiyar, 2011). The combination, therefore, does not merely mask tiredness but actively addresses the processes that contribute to swelling and discolouration.Though it is no miracle cure—and lifestyle factors such as sleep will always play a primary role—it has given me tangible results that make a genuine difference to how rested I appear, even on those days when rest itself has been elusive. For those seeking a simple, evidence-based means to revive the eye contour, I can recommend it without hesitation.

Estou usando há uns dois meses e a diferença na área aplicada é notável. Hidrata e rejuvenesce a área dos olhos., além de ter bom rendimento, em relação ao preço.
