DND Gel + Lacquer Duo #2345 Bare Neutral

DND #2345 Bare Neutral is a sheer nude from DND”s original gel and lacquer line, the one with more than 1,000 numbered shades. 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: A sheer taupe with warm undertones that highlights the flush of your natural nails.

What you get

1 x DND #2345 Bare Neutral gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp

1 x DND #2345 Bare Neutral nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries

Why techs stock it

Soak-off gel: the gel removes with acetone, which keeps the natural nail in better shape between sets.

Easy to restock: DND numbers every shade, so a best seller is one code away from a reorder.

Two services from one colour: use the gel for the manicure and the lacquer for toes or at-home touch-ups.

Natural-nail look: the sheer finish lets some of the nail show through, good for clean-girl sets.

Specifications

How to apply the gel

Prep: clean the nail, push back the cuticle, buff off the shine and dehydrate.

Base: one thin layer of DND Base #500 (or a DC or DIVA base), cured under the lamp.

Colour: two thin coats of DND #2345 Bare Neutral, capping the free edge, curing each coat.

Top: DND Top #600 No Cleanse, cured, then a drop of cuticle oil.

Who it suits

Office-friendly sets: nude reads differently on each skin tone, so swatch it on the client first.

Clean-girl manicures, paired with a white French tip.

Clients who ask for sheer nude by name or by number 2345.

Which option to choose

The gel half of DND #2345 Bare Neutral 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.

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.
