DND DC Gel + Lacquer Duo #092 Russet Tan
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #092 Russet Tan is a purple 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 #092 Russet Tan gel polish, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND DC #092 Russet Tan nail lacquer, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Bigger bottle: DC bottles hold 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), a little more than the classic 0.5 fl oz DND bottle.
- Separate numbering: DC uses its own shade numbers, so 092 will not clash with a classic DND code.
- Up to three weeks of wear: with DC base, two thin colour coats and DC top, each cured.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

Which option to choose
The gel half of DND DC #092 Russet Tan 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.
Thin coats win
Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 092 wear longer than one thick one.
More to pair with Russet Tan: DC gel and lacquer duos, purple gel and lacquer shades and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions

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.
