I have many gripes about this product. Firstly, perhaps it is strictly geared to undereye puffiness and not dark/sunken undereye. I'll assume thats the case cause as someone with genetically dark/sunken undereyes this product does absolutely nothing and i can say that confidently cause ive used it for about 3 years! My second gripe is that it gets a thick film around the top of the bottle and inside the cap. I have to clean the film reguarly otherwise the bottle just gets gross. WHY have i been using this product for so long when it does nothing you may ask? Its inexpensive and i weirdly love the routine of applying something to my eyes in the morning. I guess i grew attached. The pros are that it absorbs quickly and provides a smooth base for concealer (along with ... MoreI have many gripes about this product.

Just dont get this if you're expecting it to help with undereye circles.

I’m not the kind that has to use sensitive branded skin care items. I put off trying this for awhile, but I’ve fallen in love with my ordinary skin care routine. I decided to purchase with my last order. No issues with the test patch on my arm, but the morning after my 1st time using this I woke up with EXTREMELY dry/scab like patches under my eyes. I’ve babysat my under eye for weeks- when it seemed like it was 100% back to normal I’d do my old routine and I cannot even but the moisturizer on without it happening again. It feels like I used it once & I’ve been reaping the havoc it caused for over two months now. I am so disappointed in my experience with this product. At least it definitely needs a warning label for how extremely drying it is- at most I’d go so far ... MoreI’m not the kind that has to use sensitive branded skin care items.

This serum was not doing anything for my dark undereyes. I read about caffeine for dark undereyes only after buying this and learned it only works for one specific cause of undereye circles. So that's probably why some people see results and others don't. I also learned caffeine is an antioxidant, so Ive been using this as an all over face serum for antioxidant support in order to use up the product. Ive been enjoying it using it this way. It absorbs almost instantly, making it easy to layer with other skincare products. EGCG is helpful for oily skin types in regulating sebum so I like that I'm getting that ingredient too. I will not repurchase this but I can't honestly say it's a bad product.

I've been using this for only 3 days and I'm seeing results! I've had melasma for years and I didn't expect that this product would fade it. I've never used anything to fade my melasma and I didn't buy this for that purpose. I have hereditary little pillows under my eyes and when I have seasonal or environmental allergies, they get more swollen and I get allergic shiners. So, I got this to try to tame my allergy eyes.Well, for the past 3 days, I've put this on in the AM under my eye cream. At night, I wash my face and do my normal routine without this serum. Starting on day 1, I had a reduction in puffiness. Today is day 3 and the melasma under my eye sockets has gotten noticeably less dark! It's hard for me to tell if the purple under my eyes is better or if it's ... MoreI've been using this for only 3 days and I'm seeing results!

It's hard for me to tell if the purple under my eyes is better or if it's just that there isn't as dark of a shadow in my eye socket from the eyebag swelling going down.It's important to note that if you have hereditary eye bags, this can't change that. But, if seasonal allergies are making the puffiness worse, at least in my case, it brought that swelling from that down quickly, so I'm bag to my un-inflamed eye bag size haha.I hope it keeps working as well as it is off the bat for me.
I decided to order this after reading it as being a 'miracle for dark circles'. It boasts 5% caffeine which makes it good for brightening the undereye skin, and reducing any puffiness. This is a yellow tinted serum with an almost gel-like consistency which easily absorbs into the skin. I apply this morning and night, even on my eyelids, and always use this before I apply any other skincare products, so it gets the chance to seep right into my skin and work its magic. The dropper is really handy as it allows you to control the exact amount you want - I usually apply 2 drops and gently tap it under my eyes and blend outwards to soak into the skin. If I wear it during the day, I leave it around 5 minutes to set in, before moving on to moisturizer.

Honestly, I didn't see a difference right away, but after a few weeks I do see a slight improvement. The only complaint I have is that it doesn't sit well with makeup, and sometimes I feel it sitting under concealer, so I use it mostly on no makeup days when I can really let it sink into the skin. However, I would recommend trying it, as I feel my under eye area has improved since using this, and I certainly look more awake than before! -> My 'Ulta Beauty Top 7 must-have list' (My 7 favorite beauty products of all time, focusing mainly on my purchases at Ulta) < - < 1.

I have only been using this product for a little over a month. It feels absolutely fantastic when applied.A little bit about me: I have a nightmare disorder, and essentially try to not sleep, because I’m afraid of the nightmares. (I know sleep is one of the most important things we can do for or bodies and minds, so I’m not helping myself there).I use this morning and night, and like it so far! I haven’t noticed much difference with the dark circles under my eyes, but, like I said, I get very little sleep.Sadly, I knocked it over into the sink the other day when I was applying it, and a bunch spilled out, so I am so disappointed! Lol II am definitely going to try this for several months and purchase it again because I know some products need to be used for ... MoreI have only been using this product for a little over a month.

I have normal to dry skin and i am not prone to breakouts or dryness when switching to a new product. I have been using products by the Ordinary for the last few years. I used Buffet as a serum before applying moisturizer, but it did not do enough and my skin still felt dry after a few hours. I decided to try the Hyaluronic acid and Niacinamide serums, along with the Caffeine serum. My face felt amazing after the very first day of using all 3 products. My undereye bags were all smoothed out! But within 2-3 days, the skin under my eyes and in my eyelid contours started to get tight and my skin started to peel. Underneath the peeling was very red and irritated skin. The entire area was sensitive to the touch and my skin stung every time I applied any product.

Underneath the peeling was very red and irritated skin. The entire area was sensitive to the touch and my skin stung every time I applied any product. I stopped using the Caffeine product and it took about a week for all of the skin to peel off and the redness to dissipate. When my skin seemed back to normal, I decided to try the caffeine again to confirm if that was the culprit. Long story short, it took about 2-3 days for my skin to start peeling and the redness and stinging started up again. I have never had a reaction to a product like this before. I will keep using the Hyaluronic acid and Niacinamide serums - they are definitely helping my face feel moisturized - but I sadly cannot continue using the caffeine serum. It's too hard on my face.
Alright, so I bought this serum for the first time last month. I started using it 09/13/22 (so, a little over 5 weeks so far), and I have used it every single night (*only at night). I uploaded a picture just to show you guys what I'm dealing with, for context. I have not noticed any particular difference yet, but I would absolutely recommend it and will continue using it. With skincare, regardless of the brand, it all comes down to patience, education, and consistency, in my opinion. My sleeping pattern has been devastating for the majority of this year (for a bunch of reasons); I do my best to keep myself hydrated, but not every day is a good day on that matter, and perhaps 5 weeks is not enough for me (in particular) to notice a difference yet. Also, like I said, ... MoreAlright, so I bought this serum for the first time last month.

Also, like I said, I have been using it only at night, and the product itself recommends twice a day. It's unrealistic to place 100% of the responsibility of improving dark circles on the serum when pretty much everything else is plotting against him, you know? I think it's a great product. It's very lightweight and gentle on the skin. I will continue to use it, and I'm going to start using it twice a day, but if I look the same 6 months from now, I'm blaming my career that's keeping me from getting my 8 hrs/night, not the serum. Wish me luck! Oh, and get it for yourself!
This didn’t work for me, but I think a large part of why I and so many others were disappointed with this is because we have to manage our own expectations when it comes to puffiness and dark circles. The truth is that baggy skin and dark circles are probably like 95% due to our lifestyle and genetics. Case in point - no amount of this product was ever going to erase the dark blue puffy circles I had under my eyes as long as I slept 5h/night and worked for 15h/day. It’s just how it is.That being said….. the caffeine solution didn’t do anything to help. It’s very drying and didn’t leave my skin feeling comfortable at all, especially when worn under concealer. Nowadays I’ve resigned to living with my dark circles, trying to get more sleep and keeping the under eye ... MoreThis didn’t work for me, but I think a large part of why I and so many others were disappointed with this is because we have to manage our own expectations when it comes to puffiness and dark circles.

That’s really all you can do bar going the extreme route and going at it with cosmetic surgery, if you ask me.
I bought this product in mid May because a friend recommended it to me. I used it both in the morning and at night and after about a month and half I definitely started to notice a difference, especially by the end of the day! My eyes were always puffy like I had been punched and this product greatly reduced it and minimized the dark circles so they blended in with my brown skin tone. My family even noticed a difference and now my grandma uses this product as well!Puffy under eyes and dark circles run in my family and I recently learned that dark circles can be hereditary. So keep in mind you’ll never completely get rid of them if that’s what you’re hoping this product will do. It’ll only reduce and minimize (if it works for your skin that is).

But if you do choose to use it, you have to be consistent. I stopped for about 3 weeks as a test and I noticed the darkness coming back by the end of the second week, puffiness before the end of the first. I also use a cold crystal roller to help massage it in (please don’t use your fingers to rub! Skin around the eye is super delicate). So I recommend gently dabbing with a clean finger then using a roller. Overall, I’m super happy with this product and recommend anyone with super noticeable dark under eyes/puffiness to give it a try! Just be sure to patch test for a week or so to make sure you’re not allergic or breakout. I was recommended behind the ear as the skin there is very similar similar to your eyes.
