DND DC Gel Polish #322 Playground
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #322 Playground is a lush turquoise green with gray undertones 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 322 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.
- 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 322 on the client card. When the bottle runs low, the reorder is one code.
More to pair with Playground: the full DC range, blue 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 Playground 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 #322 Playground 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 Playground?+
DND DC #322 Playground is a lush turquoise green with gray undertones. 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.
