Most of us can't start our day without a cup of coffee, and not just for its taste. Caffeine is that little miracle of nature that gives us a boost of energy to get through the day. But did you know that you don't have to drink it to benefit from it?
Applied to the skin, especially the under-eye area, caffeine can work wonders. Let's face it, we've all woken up with puffy eyes at some point after a night of little or no sleep. Thanks to its ability to boost microcirculation and reduce fluid retention, caffeine helps reduce puffiness and make eyes look fresher and more relaxed.
In addition, caffeine is a natural antioxidant, which helps protect the skin from external factors such as pollution and UV radiation, a very important feature for the delicate area around the eyes, which is susceptible to premature aging.
Furthermore, its slightly firming effect provides a temporary sensation of toning and freshness, giving the skin a brighter and more vibrant appearance.
The secret lies in consistent use and in the right amount. We prefer products that contain up to 5% caffeine, enough to bring the desired effect, without causing sensitivity and while maintaining skin health.
