Want nails fit for a princess? Unlike the Duchess’ recipe for homemade dog treats, her signature glossy manicure is far easier to master.

Every aspect of the Duchess of Sussex’s new show – from the clothes she wears to the kitchen she works in – has been carefully curated to deliver the viewer an endless series of visually-appealing frames. 

And while some are criticising the recently-renewed production for its impractical homemaker tips and tricks (seriously, how many busy mums have the time to construct a ‘fruit rainbow’ for their screaming toddlers?) most of us tuning in can appreciate with With Love, Meghan is really about: Sitting back to appreciate the beautiful – albeit unrealistic – recipes the Duchess apparently spends her time whipping up for Harry and the kids. 

Love or hate the Duchess of Sussex’s return to our screens, there’s no denying the influence Meghan Markle yields on the beauty and fashion industry.

Love or hate the Duchess of Sussex’s return to our screens, there’s no denying the influence Meghan Markle yields on the beauty and fashion industry. Every garment she wears is quick to sell out from retailers around the world, with her jewellery and accessory choices having a similar impact on internet chatter.

But while half of the internet was busy obsessing over the Duchess’ rumoured engagement ring alterations, the other half was honing in on something else. 

It seems our obsession with Meghan’s style extends to her fingertips too, with the internet going wild this week, desperate to know the secret to her picture-perfect manicure. 

Every close-up shot of her diamond-adorned hands as they strategically place garnishes onto Ladybug Crostini (every kid’s favourite snack) showcases the Duchess’ effortless and classy nails, which some have even dubbed the ‘Montecito Mani’. The official nail polish used by the Duchess (or more likely, her manicurist) is a bespoke blend of CND Vinylux Longwear Nude Nail Polish in the shades ‘Satin Slippers’ and ‘Romantique’. The gel-like polish is fast-drying and chip-resistant, making it a popular choice across salons worldwide – including whichever Californian establishment Meghan frequents.
