DND DIVA Gel & Lacquer Duo #248 Cherry On Top

DND DIVA #248 Cherry On Top is a warm bright red 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: We wouldn”t change it for the world.

What you get

1 x DND DIVA #248 Cherry On Top gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp

1 x DND DIVA #248 Cherry On Top nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries

Why techs stock it

Short cure: thin colour coats cure in about 30 to 45 seconds under LED.

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.

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

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 #248 Cherry On Top in two thin coats, curing each one.

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

Who it suits

Holiday and date-night sets: red shows brush strokes more than most families, so two thin coats beat one heavy one.

Classic pedicures, paired with a glossy no-wipe top.

Clients who ask for warm bright red by name or by number 248.

Which option to choose

Salons that only stock the gel end up mixing a close lacquer for pedicures. The DND DIVA #248 Cherry On Top 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.
