“I only just wanna know how the girls suddenly have a fresh set of acrylics halfway through the series? Is someone a nail tech?”
Meanwhile, another person wrote: “Okay but who does the girls nails in the villa? #LoveIsland give us answers please?” As a fourth said: “Sorry but where is the love island villa nail bar????? I'm not sure if anyone has noticed but the girls have a new set every week.”
Season five's blonde beach babe, Lucie Donlan, confirmed the girls' beauty treatments, saying in a chat with Capital: "Every two or three weeks we’d have nails, hair, that kind of thing done. And we’d get a Maccies as well.
“Being in there that long, the nights are very long and no one sees how long they are, so you need a bit of a down day and a bit of a chill.”

A spokesperson for Love Island has also previously confirmed the islanders get hair and beauty treatments while in the villa, but said it’s “very irregular” and usually ahead of a big event such as the final.
2016 islander Kady McDermott has previously spoken out about beauty treatments in the villa, after noticing the girls appeared to be getting their nails done more frequently in the 2017 series.
She told OK! online: “We got our nails done once, in six weeks! It was awful. They’re definitely getting it done more this year.
“I reckon they’re getting their nails done every two weeks, they always look so fresh. I think the budget has gone up!”
Former Love Island winner Kem Cetinay also recently revealed the cast are allowed a day off of filming every Saturday, so the girls could have had their manicures on one of these days.
