Well, not really, but if I've learned one thing from the Daily Telegraph, and I think that's probably the number of things most can learn from that paper, it's that a sensationalist headline works.
I went to the launch of Chanel's new skin care line last week (it's not out for some time so it's not worth me talking about although I am VERY excited to have it to try as it's replacing their Age Delay range, which I love and use as it's targeted to fruits between 25-35 who are aware that just like a banana sitting in a lunch box, they too will age eventually and so should probably start doing something about it) and the guest speaker, who came out all the way from Paris to talk to us, told me something about puffy eyes which I will add to the emergency de-puff routine that I am often called upon to deliver over the phone to fruity friends who have been crying or not sleeping very much the night before but need to look Definitely Excellent immediately.
What the Cool French Woman said: When you apply your eye cream, you need to start dabbing it in right up on the nose, and dab it in right along under the eye and out to the temples. Aaaand repeat.
Why she said such a thing: Because these two spots are drainage areas, and it's no good tap-tap-tapping all along those bags of yours if all that puffiness has nowhere to drain out. What puffiness is, exactly, still baffles me. Some scientists have suggested it's fairy floss but others, mainly those from Denmark, believe it to be Lego.
