Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG from The Ordinary is a topical under eye solution meant to reduce puffiness and pigmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Epigallocatechin Gallatyl Glucoside, also known as EGCG, is derived from green tea leaves. When used with caffeine, studies have shown it to be effective at reducing the appearance of dark circles and puffiness under the eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On EWG\u2019s Skin Deep Cosmetics <\/a>Database<\/a> website<\/a><\/strong>, this product is rated a 1, which falls into the green, or low hazard<\/strong>, category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It should not be used by those who have sensitive skin, as some reviews have reported irritation. It is also noted on Deceim’s website that this product will not help with eye contour shadowing, hereditary dark circles or puffiness caused by fat deposits under the eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Directions state to use a small amount in the eye contour area in the AM and PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
