Couldn't load pickup availability
DND #489 Antique Purple arrives as a complete gel kit: the base gel, the top gel, the gel colour and its matching lacquer. The shade reads as cool dusty mauve.
What you get
- 1 x DND Base Gel, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL)
- 1 x DND #489 Antique Purple gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL)
- 1 x DND #489 Antique Purple matching nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL)
- 1 x DND Top Gel, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL)
Why techs stock it
- Up to three weeks of wear: when it goes on over a base gel and under a top gel, cured layer by layer.
- Soak-off gel: the gel removes with acetone, which keeps the natural nail in better shape between sets.
- Professional bottle size: each bottle holds 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), the standard salon size rather than a mini.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

How to apply the gel
- Get the nail ready: remove oils and shine so the base can grip.
- Base gel: DND Base Gel, one thin layer, cured.
- Two colour coats: keep each coat of DND #489 Antique Purple thin; thick layers cure unevenly.
- top gel: DND Top Gel, cured.
Every bottle you need for these steps is in the box, so the base, colour and top all come from the same DND line.
Who it suits
- Fall sets: purple carries red and blue pigment, so it shifts between salon light and daylight.
- Fall bookings, paired with a soft pink base.
- Clients who ask for cool dusty mauve by name or by number 489.
Which option to choose
If you already own a DND base and top gel, the duo listing for #489 adds just the colour. If you do not, the combo saves ordering the base and top separately.
Check the shade first
Paint a swatch stick and hold it next to the client's hand before the full set. Screens and lamps both shift how a colour looks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What comes in the combo?+
Four 0.5 fl oz (15 mL) bottles: DND Base Gel, the DND #489 Antique Purple gel polish, the matching DND #489 Antique Purple lacquer and DND Top Gel.
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND #489 Antique Purple 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 Antique Purple?+
DND #489 Antique Purple is a cool dusty mauve. 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.
