Couldn't load pickup availability
DND 116 Lost In Penn Station is a greige taupe 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 116 Lost In Penn Station gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND 116 Lost In Penn Station nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Matched lacquer: the lacquer shares the gel's number, so hands and toes match.
- Made without HEMA: HEMA is the ingredient most linked to gel polish allergies, and this line leaves it out.
- Fits your current system: DND says it works with any DND, DC or DIVA base and top gel.
- Clean cream finish: no shimmer or glitter, so it reads the same under salon light and daylight.

Which option to choose
Compared with a standard DND duo, DND 116 Lost In Penn Station swaps in a formula without HEMA or TPO while keeping the same gel and lacquer format. It still works with the DND, DC and DIVA base and top gels you already stock.
Removal
File through the top coat, then soak in acetone for about 10 to 15 minutes and ease the softened gel off with a pusher. Skip the drill on the natural nail and finish with cuticle oil.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND 116 Lost In Penn Station 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 Lost In Penn Station?+
DND 116 Lost In Penn Station is a greige taupe. 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.
