How to apply the gel
- Get the plate ready: remove shine and oil.
- Base gel: a thin layer of DIVA Base #100, cured.
- Colour coats: DND DIVA #289 Crocodile Tales in two thin coats, curing each one.
- Seal: DIVA Top #300 No Cleanse, cured, then cuticle oil.
Every bottle you need for these steps is in the box, so the base, colour and top all come from the same DIVA system.
Who it suits
- Fall and winter sets: green swings cool or warm with the base, so check it against the client's skin.
- Editorial nail art, paired with a gold accent nail.
- Clients who ask for deep green with blue undertones by name or by number 289.
Which option to choose
If you already own DIVA Base #100 and Top #300, the duo listing for #289 is the cheaper way to add the colour. If you do not, the combo saves ordering the base and top separately.
Thin coats win
Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 289 wear longer than one thick one.
More to pair with Crocodile Tales: every DIVA shade, DIVA #289 as a gel and lacquer duo and gel kits with base and top.
Frequently Asked Questions
What comes in the combo?+
Four 0.5 fl oz bottles: DIVA Base Gel #100, the DND DIVA #289 Crocodile Tales gel polish, the matching DND DIVA #289 Crocodile Tales lacquer and DIVA Top Gel #300 No Cleanse.
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DIVA #289 Crocodile Tales 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 Crocodile Tales?+
DND DIVA #289 Crocodile Tales is a deep green with blue 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.
