DND HEMA & TPO Free Gel Duo 256 Pagemaster
Couldn't load pickup availability
DND 256 Pagemaster is a grey shimmer 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 256 Pagemaster gel polish, 0.5 fl oz (15 mL), cured under an LED or UV lamp
- 1 x DND 256 Pagemaster 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.
- Light-catching finish: the shimmer shows most on a smooth, well-buffed surface.

Which option to choose
If a client has reacted to gel before, DND 256 Pagemaster is the DND duo to trial, since the line leaves out HEMA and TPO. The base and top gels are separate products, so check their labels too.
Storing the bottles
Keep gel bottles closed and away from the lamp and from windows, since stray UV can thicken the gel in the neck. Wipe the neck before capping so the lid does not stick.
More to pair with Pagemaster: the DND HEMA & TPO Free collection, HEMA-free gray shades and the Part 08 School Of Sleek set.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the lacquer match the gel exactly?+
Yes. DND mixes DND 256 Pagemaster 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 Pagemaster?+
DND 256 Pagemaster is a grey shimmer with a shimmer finish. 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.
