DND Gel + Lacquer Duo #697 Sizzlin Cinnamon
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND #697 Sizzlin Cinnamon is a glitter gold 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.
In DND's words: A decadent chocolate brown with gold glitter and plum undertones.
What you get
- 1 x DND #697 Sizzlin Cinnamon gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND #697 Sizzlin Cinnamon nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- 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.
- Up to three weeks of wear: when it goes on over a base gel and under a top gel, cured layer by layer.
- Glitter finish: glitter sits best under a generous top coat so the surface stays smooth.

- No-wipe top: DND Top #600 No Cleanse, cured, no cleanse step needed.
Who it suits
- Fall and Winter sets: gold catches light unevenly on a thick coat, so build it in thin layers.
- Wedding guest nails, paired with a nude base.
- Clients who ask for glitter gold by name or by number 697.
Which option to choose
Salons that only stock the gel end up mixing a close lacquer for pedicures. The DND #697 Sizzlin Cinnamon 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.
More to pair with Sizzlin Cinnamon: DND gel polish and nail lacquer, gold gel and lacquer and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND #697 Sizzlin Cinnamon 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 Sizzlin Cinnamon?+
DND #697 Sizzlin Cinnamon is a glitter gold 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 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.
