DND DIVA Gel & Lacquer Duo #243 Imperial Jade

DND DIVA #243 Imperial Jade is a bright neutral 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: It doesn”t matter where or when, treat yourself like royalty with this bright jade green.

What you get

1 x DND DIVA #243 Imperial Jade gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp

1 x DND DIVA #243 Imperial Jade nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries

Why techs stock it

Trend-led colour: DIVA is the DND line that follows seasonal colour stories, so it keeps the wall current.

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.

Opaque in two coats: a cream finish covers the nail in two thin coats.

Specifications

How to apply the gel

Get the plate ready: remove shine and oil.

Base gel: a thin layer of DIVA Base #100, cured.

Colour coats: DND DIVA #243 Imperial Jade in two thin coats, curing each one.

Seal: DIVA Top #300 No Cleanse, cured, then cuticle oil.

Who it suits

Fall and winter sets: green swings cool or warm with the base, so check it against the client”s skin.

Editorial nail art, paired with a gold accent nail.

Clients who ask for bright neutral green by name or by number 243.

Which option to choose

Salons that only stock the gel end up mixing a close lacquer for pedicures. The DND DIVA #243 Imperial Jade 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.

Storing the bottles

Keep gel bottles closed and away from the lamp and from windows, since stray UV can thicken the gel in the neck. Wipe the neck before capping so the lid does not stick.
