Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DC #288 Faded Violet is a pink 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 #288 Faded Violet nail lacquer, 0.6 fl oz (18 mL), air-dries
- Lacquer only: no gel polish in this listing
Why techs stock it
- Matched to the gel: it shares its shade number with the gel polish, so a gel manicure and a lacquer pedicure line up.
- About a week of wear: with a base coat and a top coat it typically lasts 5 to 7 days.
- Restock by number: reorders are one code: 288.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

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 #288 Faded Violet, 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: pink sits close to most natural nail beds, so regrowth shows slowly.
- Everyday short square sets, paired with a milky white for a soft French.
- Clients who ask for pink by name or by number 288.
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.
Storing the bottle
Keep the cap tight and wipe the neck after each use so the brush and lid do not stick. Store the bottle upright at room temperature.
