Common questions

Is the The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG a real dupe?
It overlaps on hero actives with 1 same-category product in our catalogue — most closely the The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Eye Serum (Caffeine Solution) at 66% active overlap. "Dupe" here means shared active ingredients, not an identical formula.
Does a higher overlap mean it is better?
No — overlap only measures shared hero actives. Base, supporting actives, texture and price still differ, so use the side-by-side compare for the full picture.
