Which option to choose
If you already own a DND DC base and top gel, the duo listing for #096 adds just the colour. If you do not, the combo saves ordering the base and top separately.
Check the shade first
Paint a swatch stick and hold it next to the client's hand before the full set. Screens and lamps both shift how a colour looks.
More to pair with Olive Garden: DC #096 as a gel and lacquer duo, DC gel and lacquer shades, gel kits with base and top and green 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 #096 Olive Garden gel polish, the matching DND DC #096 Olive Garden lacquer and DND DC Top Gel.
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DC #096 Olive Garden 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 Olive Garden?+
DND DC #096 Olive Garden is a cool toned classic light olive green. 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.
