What you get
- 1 x DND DC #243 Purply Pink gel polish, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL) gold DC bottle
- Gel only: no lacquer in this listing
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 243 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.
- Packed sparkle: works alone or as an accent nail over a cream shade.

- DC base first: DC needs a base coat, so lay DC Base #800 and cure it.

- Finish: seal with DC Top #900 No Cleanse and cure.
Who it suits
- Bridal and bridesmaid bookings: pink sits close to most natural nail beds, so regrowth shows slowly.
- Everyday short square sets, paired with a milky white for a soft French.
- Clients who ask for glitter pink by name or by number 243.
Which option to choose
A glitter gel like DND DC #243 Purply Pink is usually one or two nails in a set, or a full set for holidays and events. It wears on the same DC Base #800 and DC Top #900 as the cream DC shades.
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
Is the matching lacquer included?+
No. This listing is the 0.6 fl oz (18 mL) gel bottle only. Use a DC base and top gel with it for the full wear time.
What colour is Purply Pink?+
DND DC #243 Purply Pink is a glitter pink with a glitter finish. 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.
