Couldn't load pickup availability
DND #462 Desert Spice is a mesmerizing pot of gold with rainbow glitter from DND's original gel and lacquer line, the one with more than 1,000 numbered shades. Choose the gel alone, the gel with its matching lacquer, or the lacquer on its own.
What you get
- Gel Polish Only: one 0.5 fl oz (15 mL) gel bottle
- Lacquer Only: one 0.5 fl oz (15 mL) air-dry lacquer
- Gel Polish & Lacquer: the gel bottle and the matching lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL) each
Why techs stock it
- Matched by number: the gel and the lacquer share one shade number, so reorders and client records stay simple.
- A system you already run: it works with DND Base #500 and DND Top #600, and with DC or DIVA base and top.
- Up to three weeks of wear: when it goes on over a base gel and under a top gel, cured layer by layer.
- Glitter finish: glitter sits best under a generous top coat so the surface stays smooth.

Which option to choose
Choose Gel Polish Only if you only run gel services, Gel Polish & Lacquer if you also do pedicures or sell take-home bottles, and Lacquer Only for regular polish services. All three are the same Desert Spice shade.
Storing the bottles
Keep gel bottles closed and away from the lamp and from windows, since stray UV can thicken the gel in the neck. Wipe the neck before capping so the lid does not stick.
More to pair with Desert Spice: DND gel colours, gold gel and lacquer and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND #462 Desert Spice 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 Desert Spice?+
DND #462 Desert Spice is a mesmerizing pot of gold with rainbow glitter with a glitter 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 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 DND Base #500 and DND Top #600 No Cleanse. DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels are cross-compatible, so any of them will work.
