Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #2525 Zen Oasis is a blue 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 & 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
- 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 45 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
Most salons buy DND DC #2525 Zen Oasis 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.
Lamp check
An LED lamp cures each thin colour coat in well under a minute; a UV lamp takes about 2 minutes. If the surface stays soft, the coat was too thick or the lamp is getting old.
More to pair with Zen Oasis: the full DC range, blue gel and lacquer shades, the DC Part 15 Free Spirit collection and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the three options?+
They are the same Zen Oasis 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 #2525 Zen Oasis 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 Zen Oasis?+
DND DC #2525 Zen Oasis is a blue. 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.
