Couldn't load pickup availability
DND 193 Craving A Lobster Roll is a light coral 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: Freshly caught and ready to wear, the catch of the day is this muted coral, served with a bit of beige undertone and plenty of seaside charm.

Which option to choose
Compared with a standard DND duo, DND 193 Craving A Lobster Roll 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 193 Craving A Lobster Roll 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 Craving A Lobster Roll?+
DND 193 Craving A Lobster Roll is a light coral. 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.
