The at-home removal process (buffing, acetone, cotton wool, tinfoil) can be fiddly, but theStylfile Gel Polish Remover Kit (£15.99; styltom.co.uk) makes it as simple as possible. To get rid of regular varnish, however, using an acetone-free liquid such as Jessica Non-Acetone Polish Remover (from £7.80; jessicacosmetics.co.uk) is best for anyone with sensitive skin, dry cuticles or those who frequently switch up their colour. “The number one concern I see nowadays is dry nails and cuticles,” says Georgina Walker, Jessica’s nail expert. In addition to a good oil and base coat, Georgina advises eating a diet rich in foods like avocado, fish and nuts, avoiding spending too long with hands submerged in water and filing the nail in one direction, not back and forth, to avoid them peeling. Sally Hansen Moisture Rehab Overnight Nail Serum (£9.95; Superdrug) is also a godsend for dehydrated nails. Swipe on a thin layer and massage in every night to improve their moisturisation levels. This will also improve the look of your manicure – polish goes on smoother over well- hydrated nails and increased flexibility means a lesser chance of chips. If, however, your main concern is nails that are weak, thin or struggle to grow, this could be the sign of a keratin deficiency. ApplyMavala Scientifique K+ Nail Hardener (£15.70; feelunique.com) to the tips to help layers of keratin fibres bond tightly together, allowing them to grow long and strong without breaking. Finally, if you don’t feel “done” without a shiny lick of polish, Nailberry Oxygenated Nail Lacquer (£14.50; nailberry.co.uk) is about as healthy a one as you’ll find. Nails don’t “breathe”, but they can still benefit from an oxygen-rich, chemical-light coating. This pretty peachy shade, Peony Blush, gives a nod to this year’s coral trend. ●S Beauty GETTY IMAGES

One of the highlights of the show, the RHS Back to Nature woodland garden underscores Kate’s love of the great outdoors and her belief in the benefits of nature and the natural world on physical and mental wellbeing. Calling on the expertise of award-winning landscape architects Andree Davies and Adam White, she has been inspired by childhood memories to create a garden she hopes will awaken a sense of wonder and magic in both children and adults. At the heart of the M&G Investments- sponsored garden is the tree house. Perched on a high platform and with stag horn oak cladding to give it a natural feel, it is designed to look as though a wild creature has built its home in the tree. And hanging from the tree’s branches is a swing seat. Other key elements include a hollow crawl log, a den and a pathway bordered with leaves of varying shapes and sizes that weaves its way through the garden, around rocks and across stepping stones. A freshwater stream snakes around the garden, too, while a mini waterfall and pool have been incorporated into the design to attract wildlife. Wild trees and shrubs in cool shades of green and blue provide a calm relaxation spot and the scheme of edible plants, plants for craft activities and forest scents ranges from tiny wild strawberries to magnificent mature trees. All the flowers, fruits and seeds have been The Duchess’s garden is carefully chosen to provide food for wildlife, among the highlights of nectar for bees and butterflies, nesting sites the Chelsea Flower Show

Warner’s Distillery Garden Sponsored by Warner’s Warner’s Gin plays on the dual concepts of its pastoral heritage and native county in a sheltered garden designed by Helen Elks-Smith. The natural springs at Northamptonshire’s Falls Farm, home to Warner’s distillery, have inspired a whimsical water feature, while an architectural structure has been fashioned from regional stone and materials. The unique blue tint of the handcrafted glass panels created by Oxford artist Wendy Newhofer is influenced by the distillation process and formed by a reaction between copper and glass. Botanical plants like Juniperus communis – its berries flavour gin – and native hedging are part of the layout and Rosmarinus officinalis will be freshly picked from the garden to garnish cocktails at the Gin Barn Bar.
