Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DIVA #149 Nude Musical is a muted rose beige 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: This muted light mauve hits all the right notes and is sure to give you a standing ovation.
What you get
- 1 x DND DIVA #149 Nude Musical gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND DIVA #149 Nude Musical nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- 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.
- Matched by number: gel and lacquer carry the same number, so a client can buy a bottle to take home.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

Which option to choose
Gel or lacquer? With DND DIVA #149 Nude Musical you do not have to choose. The gel covers the long-wear manicure, the lacquer handles toes and touch-ups, and both match.
Check the shade first
