How to apply the lacquer
- Start clean: wipe the plate and push back the cuticle.
- Base: a thin base coat to protect the nail and help the colour hold.
- Two thin coats: DND DC #2543 Ladybug, letting each coat dry 2 to 3 minutes; thin coats dry faster than one thick one.
- Seal: finish with a top coat and cap the free edge.
Who it suits
- Summer and Winter sets: red shows brush strokes more than most families, so two thin coats beat one heavy one.
- Classic pedicures, paired with a glossy no-wipe top.
- Clients who ask for cool red by name or by number 2543.
Which option to choose
Lacquer or gel? The lacquer suits pedicures, quick changes and clients who take a bottle home. The gel with the same number is for long-wear manicures under a lamp.
Removal
Soak a cotton pad in polish remover, hold it on the nail for a few seconds and wipe toward the tip. Acetone and non-acetone removers both work.
