DND HEMA & TPO Free Gel Duo 217 Nautical Blackout

DND 217 Nautical Blackout is an indigo blue from DND”s HEMA & TPO Free line. You get the gel polish and its matching lacquer, so a gel manicure and a lacquer pedicure come out the same colour.

What you get

1 x DND 217 Nautical Blackout gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp

1 x DND 217 Nautical Blackout nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries

Why techs stock it

Fits your current system: DND says it works with any DND, DC or DIVA base and top gel.

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

TPO free: TPO is the photoinitiator the EU removed from cosmetics in 2025; this formula does not use it.

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

Specifications

How to apply the gel

Prep: shape, cuticle work, light buff, dehydrator.

Base: thin base gel from any DND line, cured.

Colour: DND 217 Nautical Blackout in two thin coats, capping the edge, 45 seconds each.

Top: no-wipe top gel, cured, no cleanse.

Who it suits

Summer sets: blue is high contrast against most skin tones, so a clean cuticle line matters.

Pedicures, paired with a silver chrome accent.

Clients who ask for indigo blue by name or by number 217.

Which option to choose

Compared with a standard DND duo, DND 217 Nautical Blackout swaps in a formula without HEMA or TPO while keeping the same gel and lacquer format. It still works with the DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels you already stock.

Thin coats win

Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 217 wear longer than one thick one.
