Which option to choose

Gel or lacquer? With DND DIVA #198 Overseas you do not have to choose. The gel covers the long-wear manicure, the lacquer handles toes and touch-ups, and both match.

Lamp check

An LED lamp cures each thin colour coat in well under a minute; a UV lamp takes about 2 minutes. If the surface stays soft, the coat was too thick or the lamp is getting old.
