Couldn't load pickup availability
DND #693 Sugar Spun is a deep denim blue with a flattering shimmer finish 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 #693 Sugar Spun gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND #693 Sugar Spun nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Air-dry lacquer: the lacquer needs no lamp, handy for pedicures and quick polish changes.
- 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.
- Soft shimmer: fine shimmer catches the light without the grit of a glitter.

Which option to choose
Salons that only stock the gel end up mixing a close lacquer for pedicures. The DND #693 Sugar Spun duo avoids that: the lacquer is made to the same shade as the gel.
Lamp check
An LED lamp cures each thin colour coat in well under a minute; a UV lamp takes about 2 minutes. If the surface stays soft, the coat was too thick or the lamp is getting old.
