 🌑THE ORDINARY CAFFEINE SOLUTION 5%+ EGCG

  🔹Dark circles have been a major issue for me as long as I can remember so I have always been in search of perfect eye product which may help me reduce them. When I came to know about the ordinary Caffeine solution 5%+EGCG I had to buy this. Here's my take and everything you need to know about this product.

 👀PRICE:

 🔹£5.80 for 30ml (Cult beauty)

 🌑 ABOUT THE PRODUCT:

 🔹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. Additional studies have shown that caffeine can also reduce the appearance of cellulite.

🌑HOW TO USE?

 🔹Massage a small amount onto the eye contour AM and PM. If irritation occurs, cease use and consult a physician. Use only as directed on unbroken skin. Patch testing prior to use is advised. Refer to our in-depth guide to patch testing. Keep out of reach of children.

🌑COMPLETE INGREDIENTS LIST:

Aqua (Water), Caffeine, Maltodextrin, Glycerin, Propanediol, Epigallocatechin Gallatyl Glucoside, Gallyl Glucoside, Hyaluronic Acid, Oxidized Glutathione, Melanin, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Seed Extract, Urea, Pentylene Glycol, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-6, Xanthan gum, Lactic Acid, Dehydroacetic Acid, Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate, Propyl Gallate, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Benzyl Alcohol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol

 🌑PACKAGING:

 🔹The product comes in a simple yet elegant dark glass bottle with a white rubber dropper at top. 

The bottle is UV protective as EGCG is sensitive to light. Overall it is nice packaging.

 🌑TEXTURE AND FEEL:

 🔹It has lightweight watery-serum like texture and is pale golden in colour. Once applied it feels very tacky on the skin and gets quickly absorbed in the skin.

 🌑MY THOUGHTS AND EXPERIENCE:

 🔹As per instructions I applied this consistently, daily twice AM and PM for 3 months but was disappointed. It did de-puff my eyes but did nothing for my dark circles which was my main concern. 

 🔹I hate letting any product go waste even if it is a disappointing one, so I found another way to make this work. After seeing ingredient list I  tried to use this as a spot treatment and it works as a great spot treatment. 

 🌑PROS: 

🔹Super Affordable.

🔹great Spot treatment.

🔹Reduce puffiness.

🔹cruelty-free.

🔹Vegan.

🔹No added fragrance.

 🌑CONS:

🔹No changes in dark circles.
