DND Gel Polish - 995 Walkman Wispy
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND #995 Walkman Wispy is a pastel mint gel polish from DND's original gel and lacquer line, the one with more than 1,000 numbered shades, sold here as a single bottle.
What you get
- 1 x DND #995 Walkman Wispy gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- Gel only: the matching lacquer is not in this listing
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.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

Which option to choose
Buy the single gel bottle of DND #995 Walkman Wispy to fill a gap on the wall. Salons that also do pedicures in the same colour usually take the duo instead.
Thin coats win
Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 995 wear longer than one thick one.
More to pair with Walkman Wispy: DND #995 as a gel and lacquer duo, DND gel colours, DND mint shades and DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels.
Frequently Asked Questions
What colour is Walkman Wispy?+
DND #995 Walkman Wispy is a pastel mint. 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.
How do I remove it?+
File through the top coat, soak in acetone for about 10 to 15 minutes, then ease the softened gel off with a pusher. The lacquer comes off with regular polish remover.
