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
- Quick cure: each thin colour coat cures in 30 to 45 seconds under an LED lamp.
- No-wipe finish: DC Top #900 No Cleanse leaves no sticky layer after curing.
- Bigger bottle: DC bottles hold 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), a little more than the classic 0.5 fl oz DND bottle.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

Which option to choose
The three options on this page are formats, not shades. Gel for long wear, lacquer for quick services, or both together so the manicure and pedicure match.
Restocking
Every DND shade has a fixed number, so write 318 on the client card. When the bottle runs low, the reorder is one code.
More to pair with Cherry Pie: the full DC range, orange gel and lacquer shades, the DC Part 9 Guilty Pleasures 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 Cherry Pie 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 #318 Cherry Pie 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 Cherry Pie?+
DND DC #318 Cherry Pie is a burnt orange crossed glazed scarlet. 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.
