Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #143 Banana Crepe is an apricot pink with hints of orange 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 #143 Banana Crepe gel polish, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND DC #143 Banana Crepe nail lacquer, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Built for a base coat: DC is designed to sit on DC Base #800, which is what holds it through the wear cycle.
- 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.
- Opaque in two coats: a cream finish covers the nail in two thin coats.

Which option to choose
The gel half of DND DC #143 Banana Crepe 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DC #143 Banana Crepe 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 Banana Crepe?+
DND DC #143 Banana Crepe is an apricot pink with hints of orange. 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 45 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.
