- Soak-off removal: the gel comes off with acetone at the next appointment.

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 DND DC Base Gel and cure it.
- Two thin coats: apply DND DC #055 Black Ocean thin, cap the free edge, cure each coat 30 to 60 seconds under LED.
- Finish: seal with DND DC Top Gel and cure.
Every bottle you need for these steps is in the box, so the base, colour and top all come from the same DND DC line.
Who it suits
- Winter sets: black shows every gap at the cuticle, so keep the line tidy.
- Nail art bases, paired with a glossy top for depth.
- Clients who ask for black by name or by number 055.
Which option to choose
If you already own a DND DC base and top gel, the duo listing for #055 adds just the colour. If you do not, the combo saves ordering the base and top separately.
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 Black Ocean: DC #055 as a gel and lacquer duo, DC gel and lacquer shades, gel kits with base and top and black gel and lacquer shades.
Frequently Asked Questions
What comes in the combo?+
Four 0.6 fl oz (18 mL) bottles: DND DC Base Gel, the DND DC #055 Black Ocean gel polish, the matching DND DC #055 Black Ocean lacquer and DND DC Top Gel.
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DC #055 Black Ocean 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 Black Ocean?+
DND DC #055 Black Ocean is a black. 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.
