does orbis orbicularis muscle training work?
 
Anatomical nonsense. You cannot significantly increase the strength or size of the orbicularis oculi through training. Different muscles have different roles and hypertrophic potential. The orbicularis oculi is a small, circular muscle designed for rapid contractions and endurance, think of it like your calves, but even smaller, more specialized, and harder to train. Gains will come extremely slowly, if at all.

Then there's resistance. Even the calves, which bear our full bodyweight daily and have far more growth potential, are very hard to grow, and that’s with added weight and progressive overload. If we can barely grow our calves under those conditions in the gym, with weights and machines, what makes anyone think that pulling your face up with your fingers is going to meaningfully stimulate the orbicularis oculi? It’s simply not enough of a stimulus.

It's 95% likely to be pure cope. Try it if you want, but be ready to develop wrinkles around your eyes long before you see any noticeable gains (if any come at all). Most people who claim they've “improved” their eyes through this either got surgery, abused camera angles, are just squinting differently, or used before-and-afters where their “before” expression was intentionally exaggerated.

so like is there softmaxxing tips to get better eye area
 
I would assume the goal is to improve the resting muscle tone rather than to hypertrophy it

Your eye area is mostly genetics. Most you can do is sleeping, hydrating, makeup and using cold or caffeine serums to reduce dark circles. Dyeing, thickening and curling your eyelashes. Dyeing, thickening and grooming your eyebrows. Using sclera whitening drops. And trying to fraud it by squinting a bit, using contact lenses or using sunglasses.

Without surgery, you can't change things like eye shape, upper eyelid exposure or canthal tilt.

Does Caffeine serums work?

Does Caffeine serums work and what u think about volufiline?

Situational, caffeine serums work if your issue is related to blood flow in area, will not do anything if it's caused by lack of fat or bone support.

Also when it comes to volufiline.. cope.

so i can try caffeine serums to see if its blood flow related or not
Yeah, honestly go for it, if it's a blood flow related issue then you ideally would want to stop using the caffeine serum and trying to address the root cause. Don't quote me on this, but I believe that's either caused because of improper sleep or an iron deficiency, might want to do your research though.

But basically those works because they constrict your blood vessels, so you'd want to find out why the blood vessels in that area are dilated in the first place. The serum is just a bandaid solution.
