Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #162 Clear Red is a passionate dark red jelly (can be sheer) nail lacquer from DND's premium DC line, poured into gold 0.6 fl oz bottles. It air-dries, so it needs no lamp, and it matches the gel polish with the same number.
What you get
- 1 x DND DC #162 Clear Red nail lacquer, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), air-dries
- Lacquer only: no gel polish in this listing
Why techs stock it
- Quick dry: each thin coat dries in about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Take-home bottle: clients can buy the same number for touch-ups between appointments.
- No lamp needed: the lacquer air-dries, so it suits pedicures, quick changes and clients who skip gel.
- Buildable sheer: one coat gives a wash of colour, two or three build it up.
