DND DIVA Gel & Lacquer Duo #221 Aloha!

DND DIVA #221 Aloha! is a bright cool green 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: Bring the island vibes to your everyday routine with this muted jade green.

Clients who ask for bright cool green by name or by number 221.

Which option to choose

Salons that only stock the gel end up mixing a close lacquer for pedicures. The DND DIVA #221 Aloha! duo avoids that: the lacquer is made to the same shade as the gel. If you also need the base and top gels, the combo listing for this number includes them.

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.
