Caffeine 5% + Vitamin C Radiance Eye Contour Serum

1. Start with a clean, dry face
After cleansing, make sure the eye area is clean, makeup-free, and dry. This helps the actives absorb properly—especially Vitamin C, which needs direct skin contact to do its brightening work.

2. Dispense a tiny amount
Use just half a pea-size—that’s more than enough for both eyes. Tap a little serum onto your ring finger (it’s your gentlest one) and gently dab it along the orbital bone—that’s the bony area under and around your eye. Avoid getting too close to the lash line.

3. Pat, don’t rub
Tap the serum in lightly until absorbed. Don’t tug or slide—it’s a serum, not a massage.

4. How To Use
Morning: Use daily to visibly reduce puffiness and brighten the under-eye area.
Evening (optional): Gentle enough for PM use if extra hydration or support is needed—just follow with a barrier-supportive moisturiser.

5. How To Layer With Other Actives
Vitamin C Face Serum – Before
Apply your facial vitamin C serum first. Then follow with the eye serum—formulated with a gentler vitamin C suited for delicate skin.
Niacinamide – After or Separate Areas
Safe to use together, but to avoid product overload, apply niacinamide on cheeks/forehead and eye serum under the eyes.
Retinol – Avoid Layering Directly
Using retinol with vitamin C and caffeine around the eyes can cause irritation. Use this serum in the morning and retinol at night if needed.
SPF – Always Finish With Sunscreen
Vitamin C can increase UV sensitivity. Apply SPF around the eyes (yes, you can) to prevent darkening and protect results.

6. Pro tips
- Refrigerate it for extra de-puffing power—cold caffeine = faster results.
- Don’t overload—using more won’t work faster. Just a tiny dab is enough.
- Sensitive skin? Start with every other day to build tolerance before going daily.
- Creasing concealer? Let serum absorb fully (1–2 min) before applying makeup to prevent pilling.

Why it matters: Caffeine needs contact time to shrink puffiness; Vitamin C needs clean skin and SPF support to brighten safely. Following these steps means you get smoother, more awake eyes—without guesswork or irritation.

Caffeine – 5 %:
Caffeine is a well-studied vasoconstrictor, meaning it helps shrink swollen blood vessels just below the skin’s surface—especially under the eyes. At a 5 % concentration, it temporarily reduces puffiness and under-eye swelling by improving microcirculation. Caffeine also has antioxidant properties, helping protect delicate eye skin from UV- and pollution-induced oxidative stress.

Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Glucoside – stabilized derivative):
A gentle, stable form of Vitamin C ideal for the sensitive under-eye area. It works by inhibiting melanin production and improving cellular turnover, which helps lighten dark under-eye shadows over time. Vitamin C also supports collagen synthesis, improving the look of fine lines and enhancing skin firmness beneath the eyes.

Hyaluronic Acid (multi-molecular):
This powerful humectant attracts and retains moisture at different layers of the skin. In the under-eye area, it helps visibly plump and smooth fine lines while reducing that hollow, dehydrated look that can exaggerate shadows.

Panthenol (Vitamin B5):
Soothes and strengthens the skin’s barrier function. It helps retain moisture and calm the often-delicate skin around the eyes, especially when paired with actives like Vitamin C and caffeine.

Propanediol + Glycerin:
These humectants assist with hydration while improving the serum’s absorption and feel—ensuring fast delivery of actives without tackiness.

pH-balanced base (~5.5):
Gentle enough for daily use on the sensitive eye area, and perfectly compatible with other actives in your skincare routine.

What’s not inside: No fragrance, No drying alcohol, No essential oils, No silicones

Just high-performing actives in concentrations that are supported by science and safe for delicate under-eye skin.

Puffy Under-Eyes
Caffeine helps constrict blood vessels and reduce swelling—visibly de-puffing eyes within 30 minutes of application.

Dark Circles (Blue or Brown Toned)
Vitamin C targets both vascular and pigmented dark circles—brightening over time by improving circulation and reducing melanin.

Tired or Dull-Looking Eyes
Antioxidants and light hydration restore radiance, helping under-eyes look fresher and more awake—even after little sleep.

Fine Lines & Early Signs of Ageing
Vitamin C supports collagen, while hyaluronic acid and panthenol smooth and hydrate thin, crepey skin around the eyes.

Sensitive Skin Around the Eyes
Fragrance-free and alcohol-free, this formula is designed for daily use on delicate or reactive skin types.

Makeup Wearers
Creates a smooth, non-greasy base for concealer—no pilling, patchiness, or midday creasing.

Why this formula stands out:
Most eye products either focus on hydration or brightening—not both. This one blends 5 % caffeine (a concentration backed by dermatologists) and a stable Vitamin C derivative for a double-action result: visible brightness and de-puffing without irritation.

With its non-greasy, non-irritating finish, it's engineered to support real results over time and visible improvement within the first few uses—ideal for anyone seeking a reliable, daily under-eye solution that actually lives up to the label.
