Caffeine is a well-known stimulant that has antioxidant properties and can improve the microcirculation of blood vessels. It can also speed up the lipolysis process and stimulate the draining lymph system, which may lead to the improvement of cellulite. However, the evidence that it actually makes a measurable, let alone visible, improvement on actual human beings is limited. The product is suitable for all skin types and should be applied onto the eye contour in the morning and evening. If irritation occurs, rinse off, cease use, and consult a physician.
