DND Gel + Lacquer Duo #563 DND Red
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND #563 DND Red is a dramatic neon red classic 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 #563 DND Red gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND #563 DND Red nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Professional bottle size: each bottle holds 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), the standard salon size rather than a mini.
- Matched by number: the gel and the lacquer share one shade number, so reorders and client records stay simple.
- A system you already run: it works with DND Base #500 and DND Top #600, and with DC or DIVA base and top.
- Bright finish: a neon needs thin, even coats to avoid streaks.

Which option to choose
Gel or lacquer? With DND #563 DND Red you do not have to choose. The gel covers the long-wear manicure, the lacquer handles toes and touch-ups, and both match.
Restocking

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND #563 DND Red 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 DND Red?+
DND #563 DND Red is a dramatic neon red classic with a neon 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.
