DND Gel + Lacquer Duo #501 Haven Angel
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND #501 Haven Angel is a rich magenta with deep purple tones shimmer from DND's original gel and lacquer line, the one with more than 1,000 numbered shades. You get the gel polish and its matching lacquer, so a gel manicure and a lacquer pedicure come out the same colour.
What you get
- 1 x DND #501 Haven Angel gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND #501 Haven Angel nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- A system you already run: it works with DND Base #500 and DND Top #600, and with DC or DIVA base and top.
- Up to three weeks of wear: when it goes on over a base gel and under a top gel, cured layer by layer.
- Soak-off gel: the gel removes with acetone, which keeps the natural nail in better shape between sets.
- Light-catching finish: the shimmer shows most on a smooth, well-buffed surface.

How to apply the gel
- Get the nail ready: remove oils and shine so the base can grip.
- Base gel: DND Base #500, one thin layer, cured.
- Two colour coats: keep each coat of DND #501 Haven Angel thin; thick layers cure unevenly.
- No-wipe top: DND Top #600 No Cleanse, cured, no cleanse step needed.
Who it suits
- Summer sets: purple carries red and blue pigment, so it shifts between salon light and daylight.
- Fall bookings, paired with a soft pink base.
- Clients who ask for rich magenta with deep purple tones shimmer by name or by number 501.
Which option to choose
The gel half of DND #501 Haven Angel is for services that need up to three weeks of wear. The lacquer half is for pedicures, quick changes and the bottle a client takes home. Buying them as a duo keeps both on the same number.
Thin coats win
Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 501 wear longer than one thick one.
More to pair with Haven Angel: DND gel polish and nail lacquer, DND purple shades and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND #501 Haven Angel 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 Haven Angel?+
DND #501 Haven Angel is a rich magenta with deep purple tones shimmer with a shimmer 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 DND Base #500 and DND Top #600 No Cleanse. DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels are cross-compatible, so any of them will work.
