DND DC Gel + Lacquer Duo #325 Icon
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #325 Icon is a hunter green legend with golden 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 #325 Icon gel polish, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND DC #325 Icon 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.

Which option to choose
Salons that only stock the gel end up mixing a close lacquer for pedicures. The DND DC #325 Icon duo avoids that: the lacquer is made to the same shade as the gel.
Thin coats win
Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 325 wear longer than one thick one.
More to pair with Icon: DC gel and lacquer duos, green gel and lacquer shades, the DC Part 9 Guilty Pleasures collection and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DC #325 Icon 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 Icon?+
DND DC #325 Icon is a hunter green legend with golden 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.
