Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DIVA #103 Dainty Lavender is a periwinkle purple 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.
What you get
- 1 x DND DIVA #103 Dainty Lavender gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND DIVA #103 Dainty Lavender nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Short cure: thin colour coats cure in about 30 to 60 seconds under LED.
- 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.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

Who it suits

- Clients who ask for periwinkle purple by name or by number 103.
Which option to choose
The gel half of DND DIVA #103 Dainty Lavender 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 103 wear longer than one thick one.
More to pair with Dainty Lavender: DIVA gel and lacquer duos, the DIVA Coquette collection, blue gel and lacquer shades and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DIVA #103 Dainty Lavender 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 Dainty Lavender?+
DND DIVA #103 Dainty Lavender is a periwinkle purple. 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 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.
