7 Caffeinated Skincare Products That’ll Give Your Face a Wake-Up Call
October 20, 2021
Most of us can’t imagine our day starting without coffee. But as it turns out, the caffeine isn’t just good for getting us energized — it’s pretty effective in skincare, too. You can find the ingredient in plenty of eye creams, moisturizers, serums and even oils that are designed to help give your skin an extra boost.
When used topically, caffeine can temporarily help reduce inflammation and puffiness by constricting the blood vessels in the skin. This, in turn, can help reduce the appearance of dark circles, smooth visible fine lines and give the look of tightened skin.
Ahead, we rounded up a few of our favorite skincare products with caffeine for you to try.

This non-greasy serum has 1.5% pure hyaluronic acid to enhance skin's moisture retention, plus 1% pure caffeine to help reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness. Apply the formula with the unique triple roller applicator that features three cooling, stainless steel balls and a bendable wand for a full eye contour massage.
La Roche-Posay Pigmentclar Eye Cream for Dark Circles
Dark circles can appear blue or brown under your eyes, but no matter what colors yours are, this eye cream helps visibly reduce them. Formulated with caffeine and designed with a cooling metal applicator, this eye cream helps to noticeably depuff and correct your eye area for a brighter look.
