Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DIVA #055 Unicorn Lantern is a pastel purple with pink undertones from DND's trend-led DIVA line. 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: Light up your inner wonderment with a soft lilac créme that reminds us of the magic during a first snowfall.
What you get
- 1 x DND DIVA #055 Unicorn Lantern gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND DIVA #055 Unicorn Lantern nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
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.

Which option to choose
The gel half of DND DIVA #055 Unicorn Lantern 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. If you also need the base and top gels, the combo listing for this number includes them.
Restocking
Every DND shade has a fixed number, so write 055 on the client card. When the bottle runs low, the reorder is one code.
More to pair with Unicorn Lantern: DIVA gel and lacquer duos, the DIVA Frosted Chai collection, the DIVA #055 combo with base and top and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DIVA #055 Unicorn Lantern 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 Unicorn Lantern?+
DND DIVA #055 Unicorn Lantern is a pastel purple with pink undertones. 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 45 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.
