DND DIVA #008 Queen Conch is a warm pink from DND's trend-led DIVA line. Choose the gel alone, the gel with its matching lacquer, or the lacquer on its own.
In DND's words: A deep pink glitter with fine holographic sparkles that is the secret to having the best day today, yesterday, tomorrow, and forever.

Which option to choose
Choose Gel Polish Only if you only run gel services, Gel Polish & Lacquer if you also do pedicures or sell take-home bottles, and Lacquer Only for regular polish services. All three are the same Queen Conch shade.
Removal
File through the top coat, then soak in acetone for about 10 to 15 minutes and ease the softened gel off with a pusher. Skip the drill on the natural nail and finish with cuticle oil.
More to pair with Queen Conch: DIVA #008 as a gel and lacquer duo, every DIVA shade, pink gel and lacquer shades and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DIVA #008 Queen Conch 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 Queen Conch?+
DND DIVA #008 Queen Conch is a warm pink with a glitter finish. 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 60 seconds; a UV lamp takes about 2 minutes. Thin coats cure all the way through, thick ones do not.
Which base and top coat should I use?+
DND recommends DIVA Base #100 and DIVA Top #300 No Cleanse. DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels are cross-compatible, so any of them will work.
