Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #030 Aqua Blue is a dreamy cool-toned sky blue with gray undertones from DND's premium DC line, poured into gold 0.6 fl oz bottles. 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 DC #030 Aqua Blue gel polish, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND DC #030 Aqua Blue nail lacquer, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Soak-off removal: the gel comes off with acetone at the next appointment.
- Gold-bottle DC formula: DC is DND's premium line, with richer pigment and a glossier finish than the classic range.
- Quick cure: each thin colour coat cures in 30 to 60 seconds under an LED lamp.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

How to apply the gel
- Start clean: the nail must be fully prepped and free of oil.
- DC base first: DC needs a base coat, so lay DC Base #800 and cure it.
- Two thin coats: apply DND DC #030 Aqua Blue thin, cap the free edge, cure each coat 30 to 60 seconds under LED.
- Finish: seal with DC Top #900 No Cleanse and cure.
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 dreamy cool-toned sky blue with gray undertones by name or by number 030.
Which option to choose
The gel half of DND DC #030 Aqua Blue 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.
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.
More to pair with Aqua Blue: DC gel and lacquer duos, blue gel and lacquer shades and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DC #030 Aqua Blue as a gel and a lacquer with the same shade number, so a gel manicure and a lacquer pedicure match. The lacquer air-dries, the gel needs an LED or UV lamp.
What colour is Aqua Blue?+
DND DC #030 Aqua Blue is a dreamy cool-toned sky blue with gray undertones. Screens show colour differently, so check a swatch stick against the client's skin before the full set.
How long do I cure each coat?+
Under an LED lamp, cure each thin colour coat 30 to 60 seconds; a UV lamp takes about 2 minutes. Thin coats cure all the way through, thick ones do not.
Which base and top coat should I use?+
DND recommends DC Base #800 and DC Top #900 No Cleanse. DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels are cross-compatible, so any of them will work.
