DND DC Gel + Lacquer Duo #2461 Milky Pink
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #2461 Milky Pink is a sheer milky pink 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 #2461 Milky Pink gel polish, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND DC #2461 Milky Pink nail lacquer, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), air-dries
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 2461 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.
- Natural-nail look: the sheer finish lets some of the nail show through, good for clean-girl sets.

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 DC Base #800 and cure it.
- Two thin coats: apply DND DC #2461 Milky Pink thin, cap the free edge, cure each coat 30 to 60 seconds under LED.
- Finish: seal with DC Top #900 No Cleanse and cure.
Who it suits
- Spring and Winter sets: white is the hardest shade to lay down evenly, so keep coats thin and cap the free edge.
- Clean-girl sets, paired with a French tip over a sheer pink.
- Clients who ask for sheer milky pink by name or by number 2461.
Which option to choose
Gel or lacquer? With DND DC #2461 Milky Pink you do not have to choose. The gel covers the long-wear manicure, the lacquer handles toes and touch-ups, and both match.
Thin coats win
Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 2461 wear longer than one thick one.
More to pair with Milky Pink: DC gel and lacquer duos, white gel and lacquer shades, the DC Part 13 Sheer 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 #2461 Milky Pink 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 Milky Pink?+
DND DC #2461 Milky Pink is a sheer milky pink with a sheer 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 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.
