Which option to choose

Gel or lacquer? With DND DIVA #118 Pale Kiwi you do not have to choose. The gel covers the long-wear manicure, the lacquer handles toes and touch-ups, and both match. 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.
