Which option to choose
For a client who wants a HEMA-free colour, DND 219 Couple'd Up is the DND duo to reach for, since the line leaves out HEMA and TPO. The base and top gels are separate products, so check their labels too.
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 219 Couple'd Up 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 used in many gel polishes, and TPO is a photoinitiator the EU removed from cosmetics in 2025. This DND line is made without either one.
What colour is Couple'd Up?+
DND 219 Couple'd Up is a pale pink. 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.
