I recently saw a commercial where it showed a woman rolling a stick of caffeine under eyes to get rid of the puffiness. I had never heard of caffeine being used for that reason and I set to look into caffeine being used medicinally.  I know that studies have shown that caffeine in beverages can be helpful and harmful; helpful with migraines and harmful on intestines and other necessary organs.  I guess that’s when moderation comes in handy.

I learned that caffeine in eye creams reduces the swelling while also increasing the circulation for increased blood flow to improve and brighten dark circles under the eyes.  There are many creams out there that are made from coffee beans and green tea. So, I went to the just a common mega-store and found some, and it worked great! I was worried that because I bought a cheaper version of what I was reading about online, that it wouldn’t work as well or even at all, but I worried needlessly. So, after continuous late nights I had quite the puffy dark circles under my eyes, and I applied the cream with caffeine and after just a few days they were hardly visible.  I feel like a commercial saying this, but it really did work.
