DND DIVA Gel & Lacquer Duo #202 In The Mix

DND DIVA #202 In The Mix is a salmon pink from DND”s trend-led DIVA line. You get the gel polish and its matching lacquer, so a gel manicure and a lacquer pedicure come out the same colour.

In DND”s words: Time to juice things up and throw everything into the mix for a last minute vacation escape.

Specifications

How to apply the gel

Prep: clean the nail, push back the cuticle, buff and dehydrate.

Colour: two thin coats of DND DIVA #202 In The Mix, each cured 30 to 45 seconds under LED, edge capped.

Top: DIVA Top #300 No Cleanse (or DC #900), cured, no wipe.

Who it suits

Bridal and bridesmaid bookings: pink sits close to most natural nail beds, so regrowth shows slowly.

Everyday short square sets, paired with a milky white for a soft French.

Clients who ask for salmon pink by name or by number 202.

Which option to choose

Gel or lacquer? With DND DIVA #202 In The Mix you do not have to choose. The gel covers the long-wear manicure, the lacquer handles toes and touch-ups, and both match.

Thin coats win

Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 202 wear longer than one thick one.
