The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG from DECIEM ☕️☕️☕️ is the first skincare product I use every single day, the kickstart to my morning regimen.

I’m up at 5:30, turn on the Keurig, feed Orpheus (who’s meowing like mad by this point! 🙀) and dab a little of this on my crazy puffy under-eyes bags.

Before I know it, they’re gone!

I read somewhere that DECIEM claims they use the highest level of caffeine of any similar caffeine eye product.

(Though I can’t find that now!) Whether that’s true or even significant doesn’t matter because IT WORKS! From Deciem:

““This light-textured formula contains an extremely high 5% concentration of caffeine, supplemented with highly-purified Epigallocatechin Gallatyl Glucoside (EGCG) from green tea leaves. 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.””

It’s got a thicker, silkier texture than expected and is much more than a caffeine serum for puffiness under the eyes. It’s loaded with protective antioxidants, including from the caffeine itself and from Glutathione — a potent antioxidant that’s found naturally in the body. The EGCG derived from green tea leaves is also a powerfully protective antioxidant.

And although conventional marketing wouldn’t classify the The Ordinary’s Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG as an anti-aging serum, it is certainly one of the best anti-aging serums for eyes that I’ve come across.

The best part? It’s $6.70! It’s almost always sold out on the Sephora website but if you sign up for an email alert, you can grab a bottle when it's back in stock in a week or so. You can also purchase it directly from Deciem here.

A little goes a long way!
