Couldn't load pickup availability
DND DIVA #274 Mint Julep is a bright mint green 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.

- 1 x DND DIVA #274 Mint Julep nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries

- Professional bottle size: each bottle holds 0.5 fl oz (15 mL).
- Up to three weeks of wear: with a base gel, two thin colour coats and a no-wipe top.

Which option to choose
Salons that only stock the gel end up mixing a close lacquer for pedicures. The DND DIVA #274 Mint Julep 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.
Restocking
Every DND shade has a fixed number, so write 274 on the client card. When the bottle runs low, the reorder is one code.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND DIVA #274 Mint Julep 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 Mint Julep?+
DND DIVA #274 Mint Julep is a bright mint green. 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.
