What It Is

Topical caffeine works as a potent vasoconstrictor (reducing undereye puffiness and dark circles), a phosphodiesterase inhibitor (breaking down fat in adipocytes for cellulite applications), and an antioxidant protecting against UV-induced DNA damage. Studies show significant improvement in undereye puffiness and dark circles at 3%.

How to Use

Topical eye serum or cream 3%, AM and PM. Apply with ring finger and pat gently — never rub.
