DND HEMA & TPO Free Gel Duo 191 Knot Today
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND 191 Knot Today is a rose nude 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.
In DND's words: No need to tie yourself into knots thinking about what you should wear next, when you have the catch of the day: this soft pink beige.
What you get
- 1 x DND 191 Knot Today gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND 191 Knot Today nail lacquer, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), air-dries
Why techs stock it
- Vegan and cruelty-free: DND labels the HEMA & TPO Free line both vegan and cruelty-free.
- 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.
- Opaque in two coats: a cream finish covers the nail in two thin coats.

Which option to choose
Compared with a standard DND duo, DND 191 Knot Today 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.
Lamp check
An LED lamp cures each thin colour coat in well under a minute; a UV lamp takes about 2 minutes. If the surface stays soft, the coat was too thick or the lamp is getting old.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND 191 Knot Today 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 Knot Today?+
DND 191 Knot Today is a rose nude. 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.
