Couldn't load pickup availability
DND #859 Vintage Lace is a sheer nude 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.
In DND's words: A creamy off-white sheer Please Note: Our Sheer Polishes are buildable giving you the desired glassy jelly look or working up to a fuller coverage.
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
- Soak-off gel: the gel removes with acetone, which keeps the natural nail in better shape between sets.
- Easy to restock: DND numbers every shade, so a client favourite is one code away from a reorder.
- Two services from one colour: use the gel for the manicure and the lacquer for toes or at-home touch-ups.
- Natural-nail look: the sheer finish lets some of the nail show through, good for clean-girl sets.

How to apply the gel

- Lay the base: a thin coat of DND Base #500, cured.

- Seal: finish with DND Top #600 No Cleanse and cure.
Who it suits
- Spring and Winter sets: nude reads differently on each skin tone, so swatch it on the client first.
- Clean-girl manicures, paired with a white French tip.
- Clients who ask for sheer nude by name or by number 859.
Which option to choose
Most salons buy DND #859 Vintage Lace as the gel and lacquer pair, so the manicure and pedicure match. The gel-only and lacquer-only options suit techs who already own the other half.
Thin coats win
Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 859 wear longer than one thick one.
More to pair with Vintage Lace: DND gel colours, DND nude shades and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND #859 Vintage Lace 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 Vintage Lace?+
DND #859 Vintage Lace is a sheer nude 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 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.
