DND DC Gel Polish #170 Plum Frost
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #170 Plum Frost is a neutral beige (can be sheer) from DND's premium DC line, poured into gold 0.6 fl oz bottles. Choose the gel alone, the gel with its matching lacquer, or the lacquer on its own.
What you get
- Gel Polish Only: one 0.6 fl oz (18 mL) gel bottle
- Gel Polish & Lacquer: the gel bottle and the matching lacquer, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL) each
- Lacquer Only: one 0.6 fl oz (18 mL) air-dry lacquer
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 170 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.

- Finish: seal with DC Top #900 No Cleanse and cure.
Who it suits
- Office-friendly sets: nude reads differently on each skin tone, so swatch it on the client first.
- Clean-girl manicures, paired with a white French tip.
- Clients who ask for neutral beige (can be sheer) by name or by number 170.
Which option to choose
Most salons buy DND DC #170 Plum Frost as the gel and lacquer pair, so the manicure and pedicure match. The gel-only and lacquer-only options suit techs who already own the other half.
Restocking
Every DND shade has a fixed number, so write 170 on the client card. When the bottle runs low, the reorder is one code.
More to pair with Plum Frost: the full DC range, nude gel and lacquer shades and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the three options?+
They are the same Plum Frost shade in different formats: gel polish only, the gel with its matching lacquer, or the lacquer only. Choose by the services you run.
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DC #170 Plum Frost 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 Plum Frost?+
DND DC #170 Plum Frost is a neutral beige (can be sheer) 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 45 seconds; a UV lamp takes about 2 minutes. Thin coats cure all the way through, thick ones do not.
