What is CND, and what does CND stand for?

In nails, CND stands for Creative Nail Design — a US professional brand founded in 1979 that invented the Shellac soak-off gel polish category in 2010. CND also makes Vinylux long-wear polish, SolarOil cuticle oil, RescueRXx nail strengthener, and Perfect Color acrylic. DTK Nail Supply carries the CND range at wholesale.

Is CND owned by Revlon?

Yes. CND (Creative Nail Design) is part of the Revlon family — Revlon acquired CND's parent company, The Colomer Group, in 2013 for about $660 million. CND continues as its own professional nail brand under Revlon's portfolio.

Which brand of gel polish or nail polish is best?

There's no single best, but CND is one of the most trusted pro brands — its Shellac invented the modern gel-polish category and wears ~14 days. The 'best' depends on need: CND or OPI for prestige, DND or Kiara Sky for value, Lavis or A'DOR for HEMA-free. DTK stocks all of them to compare.

What's the best cuticle oil, and how do you strengthen weak nails?

CND SolarOil — a jojoba, sweet almond, and vitamin E blend — is one of the longest-recommended cuticle oils by nail pros for hydration and healthier nail beds. For weak, peeling nails, CND RescueRXx is a keratin treatment used like a base coat. Both are stocked at DTK.

What products does CND make?

CND's core lines are Shellac (soak-off gel polish, ~14-day wear), Vinylux (long-wear air-dry polish, no lamp, ~7-day wear), Perfect Color and Retention+ acrylic, plus SolarOil and RescueRXx nail care, and the Shellac base/top system. DTK carries the professional range.
