DND gel cures under both UV and LED lamps. LED is faster (~30-60 seconds per coat); UV takes ~2 minutes per coat. Any 48W+ professional UV/LED lamp works. The DND Base, color, and Top must each be cured for full hardness and 3-week wear.
Yes. A complete DND gel manicure is Base Gel, then color, then Top Gel, each cured. The base bonds color to the nail and prevents lifting; the top seals in shine and adds chip resistance. Skipping either cuts wear time and causes peeling. DTK stocks the DND Base & Top system (500 / 800 / 900).
They are DND's professional base and top coat system codes: the Base Gel (bonding layer), Top Gel (high-gloss seal), and matching no-wipe / soak-off options. Used with any DND, DC, or DIVA color to deliver the full 21-day cured-gel wear. DTK carries all three.
LED is the modern choice: faster cure (~30-60s), longer-lasting bulbs, and lower energy use. UV cures all gels but is slower and bulbs degrade over time. DND gel is compatible with both; for a busy salon, a 48W+ LED lamp is the better investment.
Up to 3 weeks (21 days) of chip-resistant wear with DND Base + color + Top properly applied and cured under a 48W+ UV/LED lamp. Soaks off in 10-15 minutes with foil + acetone wraps.
