Why techs stock it
- Trend-led colour: DIVA is the DND line that follows seasonal colour stories, so it keeps the wall current.
- 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.
- Opaque in two coats: a cream finish covers the nail in two thin coats.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DIVA #164 Raise the Barre 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 Raise the Barre?+
DND DIVA #164 Raise the Barre is a pastel peach. 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.
