Can I apply this serum and place reusable under eyes patches over it to help absorb the product or should I not apply eye patches over this product?
- Asked by Panda
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageUnfortunately, it is difficult for us to comment on the pairing of our products with those of other brands. We recommend consulting with your doctor/dermatologist, gradually incorporating one new product into your regimen at a time, and applying test patches first to see what works best for your skin.Was this answer helpful to you

Shocking Improvement
I am 45 and have been plagued with dark circles since I can remember. I've have tried many eye creams over the years and not a single one made a noticeable improvement. Cassandra Bankson is a huge advocate against eye creams, saying they are overpriced moisturizers. But I recently watched one of her...

Not good
Omg! I am so shocked! This serum made mine upper lids very wrinkly and swollen. Under my eyes there are small red spots. It almost like I have more darker circles. Hard to see on the pictures maybe. I have been using this product for 1 or 2 weeks now, once a day. I hope the damage will go away. I wi...

Caffeine solution
Absolutely the best thing I ever bought! Looked tired with poofy eyes for years, tried this (even after negative comments), and it immediately worked! No other creams or eyepatches ever helped me! No poofy eyes or dark circles! Love this!
Caffeine
When I runs out I always buy it ...I like it .. tight slightly and eyes look more awake
Nope
Does nothing. Literally nothing
CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT!!!
I absolutely LOVE The Ordinary!!! With these inexpensive products, you can put together a personalized skin care regimen that meets your exact needs without paying for a lot of ingredients you probably don't need and/or going through some expensive customization service. I combine The Ordinary with COSRX Snail Mucin products and a Mario Badescu toner for the best results. Granted, my regimen consists of about a dozen products, so I could save time by spending more money, but the results I've gotten from the regimen I've put together are undeniable! My skin looks firmer, healthier, and younger. This was the first The Ordinary product that was recommended to me and I LOVE it. I've had bags under my eyes and crow's feet since I was a teenager. Previously, I've used Arbonne, which gave excellent results, but it's expensive and hard to find. This product has taken years off my face and it is the most essential part of my regimen.
No difference
I honestly think the brown tint of this product made my undereyes worse. Saw no improvement with wrinkles either.
