Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DIVA #022 Glimmer Galaxy is a glittery silver 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: Even in galaxies far, far away, this silver glitter with holographic sparkles is a fan favorite.
What you get
- Gel Polish Only: one 0.5 fl oz (15 mL) gel bottle
- Gel Polish & Lacquer: the gel bottle and the matching lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL) each
- Lacquer Only: one 0.5 fl oz (15 mL) air-dry lacquer
Why techs stock it
- Soak-off gel: the gel removes with acetone, no drilling through the colour.
- Part of a numbered chart: DIVA runs #001 to #288 plus a glitter range, so shades are easy to track.
- Matched by number: gel and lacquer carry the same number, so a client can buy a bottle to take home.
- Packed sparkle: works alone or as an accent nail over a cream shade.

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 Glimmer Galaxy shade.
Storing the bottles
Keep gel bottles closed and away from the lamp and from windows, since stray UV can thicken the gel in the neck. Wipe the neck before capping so the lid does not stick.
More to pair with Glimmer Galaxy: DIVA #022 as a gel and lacquer duo, every DIVA shade, silver 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 #022 Glimmer Galaxy 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 Glimmer Galaxy?+
DND DIVA #022 Glimmer Galaxy is a glittery silver 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.
