What you get

1 x DND DC #226 Vivid Red gel polish, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL) gold DC bottle

Gel only: no lacquer in this listing

Why techs stock it

Built for a base coat: DC is designed to sit on DC Base #800, which is what holds it through the wear cycle.

Soak-off removal: the gel comes off with acetone at the next appointment.

Gold-bottle DC formula: DC is DND”s premium line, with richer pigment and a glossier finish than the classic range.

Glitter finish: glitter sits best under a generous top coat so the surface stays smooth.

Specifications

How to apply the gel

Start clean: the nail must be fully prepped and free of oil.

DC base first: DC needs a base coat, so lay DC Base #800 and cure it.

Two thin coats: apply DND DC #226 Vivid Red thin, cap the free edge, cure each coat 30 to 45 seconds under LED.

Finish: seal with DC Top #900 No Cleanse and cure.

Who it suits

Holiday and date-night sets: red shows brush strokes more than most families, so two thin coats beat one heavy one.

Classic pedicures, paired with a glossy no-wipe top.

Clients who ask for glitter red by name or by number 226.

Which option to choose

A glitter gel like DND DC #226 Vivid Red is usually one or two nails in a set, or a full set for holidays and events. It wears on the same DC Base #800 and DC Top #900 as the cream DC shades.

Removal

File through the top coat, then soak in acetone for about 10 to 15 minutes and ease the softened gel off with a pusher. Skip the drill on the natural nail and finish with cuticle oil.
