DND DC Gel Starter Kit - 047, 060, 091, 108, 288, BT 800-900

This kit pairs the DND DC duos 047, 060, 091, 108, 288 with the base and top gel 800 and 900 that cure them.

What is in the box

• 5 gel and lacquer duos: each one a soak-off gel with a matching air-dry lacquer in the same shade.
• Bottle size: 0.6 oz per bottle.
• Base and top gel: included, so the kit cures a full service on its own.
• Wear: up to 21 days when run as a full service.

Specifications

Running a service from this box

1. Prep: file to shape, push back the cuticle, buff off the shine and dehydrate the plate.
2. Base gel: one thin coat, capped at the free edge, cured under an LED or UV lamp.
3. Colour coat one: one thin coat, kept off the skin, cured.
4. Colour coat two: a second coat brings the pigment to full depth, cured again.
5. Top gel: one coat, cured, then wipe the tacky layer if your top coat leaves one.
6. The lacquer half: air-dries over a base coat at home, no lamp needed.

Best for

• A tech setting up a first station, who needs the base and top gel as well as colour
• A mobile tech who carries a short colour range
• Trying a line before committing to a full part

How it compares

The kit answers a different question from a part. A part asks how much of the wall you want. A kit asks whether you can run the service at all yet: it brings the gels as well as the colour, so nothing else has to be ordered before the first client sits down.

Reordering from here

Once a box is on the wall, the shades that move fastest are the ones to reorder as singles rather than waiting for the next block. Keep a short list at the desk of what is running low. Buying the movers as singles and the rest in blocks is what keeps a colour wall useful without tying up cash in slow numbers.
