Couldn't load pickup availability
DND 106 Sandie Smoke is a smoky rose brown from DND's HEMA & TPO Free line. You get the gel polish and its matching lacquer, so a gel manicure and a lacquer pedicure come out the same colour.
What you get
- 1 x DND 106 Sandie Smoke gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND 106 Sandie Smoke nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- TPO free: TPO is the photoinitiator the EU removed from cosmetics in 2025; this formula does not use it.
- Rated for 21 days: DND lists up to 21 days of chip-free wear with proper prep.
- Does not shrink: DND lists the HEMA & TPO Free formula as non-shrinking and chip-free.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

Which option to choose
DND's standard gel line contains HEMA, per its safety data sheet. DND 106 Sandie Smoke belongs to the separate HEMA & TPO Free line, so it is the DND option for clients who react to regular gel. Any client with a known allergy should still patch test.
Thin coats win
Most chipping comes from one heavy coat that never cured all the way through. Two thin coats of 106 wear longer than one thick one.
More to pair with Sandie Smoke: the DND HEMA & TPO Free collection, HEMA-free red shades and the Part 03 Up Up & Away set.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND 106 Sandie Smoke 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 do HEMA free and TPO free mean?+
HEMA is a monomer and the ingredient most linked to allergic reactions from gel polish. TPO is a photoinitiator the EU removed from cosmetics in 2025. This DND line is made without either one.
What colour is Sandie Smoke?+
DND 106 Sandie Smoke is a smoky rose brown. 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 45 seconds; a UV lamp takes about 2 minutes. Thin coats cure all the way through, thick ones do not.
