Why techs stock it

Soak-off gel: the gel removes with acetone, no drilling through the colour.

Part of a numbered chart: DIVA runs #001 to #288 plus a glitter range, so shades are easy to track.

Matched by number: gel and lacquer carry the same number, so a client can buy a bottle to take home.

Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

Clients who ask for light lavender-white by name or by number 101.

Which option to choose

The gel half of DND DIVA #101 Cotton Candy Lilac is for services that need up to three weeks of wear. The lacquer half is for pedicures, quick changes and the bottle a client takes home. Buying them as a duo keeps both on the same number. If you also need the base and top gels, the combo listing for this number includes them.

Thin coats win

Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 101 wear longer than one thick one.
