177 OJ gives you a warm peach and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Peach carries both pink and orange pigment, so it warms up a cool skin tone without going bright. DND DC lists it as a summery peach-orange with pink undertones (can be sheer). It is carried in the spring gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- Two coats is the norm: DND DC 177 OJ is pigmented enough that a third pass is rarely needed, which keeps the set thin.
- Up to 21 days: the DC line's published wear when used with base gel and top coat.
- Easy removal: soaks off in 10 to 15 minutes, so a rebalance does not thin the plate.
- Bigger bottle: DC ships in 0.6 oz rather than the 0.5 oz the regular DND line uses.

Which option should you add to the bag
On this page you are choosing between DND DC 177 OJ in different formats. Gel Polish & Lacquer is the matched gel and lacquer pair, so the client can take the polish home in the same shade. Gel Polish Only is the gel bottle on its own, for salons that only run gel services. Lacquer Only is the air-dry lacquer on its own, no lamp needed. Gel & Lacquer + Dipping Powder is gel, lacquer and dip powder together, so one shade covers all three services. If you already stock base and top coat, the plain DND DC 177 OJ duo is the sensible reorder. The bundled options exist for a new station or a second room that has nothing in it yet.
How to take it off
DND DC 177 OJ is a soak-off gel, so nothing here needs to be drilled off. Break the seal by filing through the top coat until the shine is gone, then wrap each nail in an acetone-soaked pad and leave it long enough for the layers to lift on their own. Ease the softened gel off with a wooden pusher. If it resists, re-wrap rather than scrape, because scraping is what thins the plate and causes the next set to lift.
DND DC 177 OJ is stocked alongside the DND DC, DND and DIVA gel wall, the spring gel lacquer line-up and DC nail lacquers.
