DND Gel + Lacquer Duo #985 Loco Motion

DND #985 Loco Motion is a pastel purple gray 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: All aboard for good times.

What you get

1 x DND #985 Loco Motion gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp

1 x DND #985 Loco Motion nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries

Why techs stock it

Professional bottle size: each bottle holds 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), the standard salon size rather than a mini.

Matched by number: the gel and the lacquer share one shade number, so reorders and client records stay simple.

A system you already run: it works with DND Base #500 and DND Top #600, and with DC or DIVA base and top.

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

Specifications

How to apply the gel

Prep the plate: shape, clean up the cuticle, lightly buff and wipe with a dehydrator.

Lay the base: a thin coat of DND Base #500, cured.

Build the colour: two thin coats of DND #985 Loco Motion; cure after each one and cap the edge.

Seal: finish with DND Top #600 No Cleanse and cure.

Who it suits

Evening sets: purple carries red and blue pigment, so it shifts between salon light and daylight.

Fall bookings, paired with a soft pink base.

Clients who ask for pastel purple gray by name or by number 985.

Which option to choose

Gel or lacquer? With DND #985 Loco Motion you do not have to choose. The gel covers the long-wear manicure, the lacquer handles toes and touch-ups, and both match.

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.
