Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DIVA #224 Gypsy Soul is a creamy dark lavender 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 #224 Gypsy Soul nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Short cure: thin colour coats cure in about 30 to 45 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.
- Natural-nail look: the sheer finish lets some of the nail show through, good for clean-girl sets.

Which option to choose
Salons that only stock the gel end up mixing a close lacquer for pedicures. The DND DIVA #224 Gypsy Soul duo avoids that: the lacquer is made to the same shade as the gel. If you also need the base and top gels, the combo listing for this number includes them.
Removal
File through the top coat, then soak in acetone for about 10 to 15 minutes and ease the softened gel off with a pusher. Skip the drill on the natural nail and finish with cuticle oil.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DIVA #224 Gypsy Soul 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 Gypsy Soul?+
DND DIVA #224 Gypsy Soul is a creamy dark lavender with a sheer 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 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.
