DND DIVA Gel & Lacquer Duo #268 Cedar-licious

DND DIVA #268 Cedar-licious is a deep camel brown 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: What wood we do without it?.

What you get

1 x DND DIVA #268 Cedar-licious gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp

1 x DND DIVA #268 Cedar-licious nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries

Why techs stock it

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

Professional bottle size: each bottle holds 0.5 fl oz (15 mL).

Up to three weeks of wear: with a base gel, two thin colour coats and a no-wipe top.

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

Clients who ask for deep camel brown by name or by number 268.

Which option to choose

Salons that only stock the gel end up mixing a close lacquer for pedicures. The DND DIVA #268 Cedar-licious duo avoids that: the lacquer is made to the same shade as the gel.

Check the shade first

Paint a swatch stick and hold it next to the client”s hand before the full set. Screens and lamps both shift how a colour looks.
