279 Coral Bells gives you a clear pink and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Pink sits close to most natural nail beds, so regrowth shows up slowly. DND DC lists it as a beaming hot neon pink. It is carried in the spring gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- Colour that covers: the DC formula is richly pigmented, so DND DC 279 Coral Bells reaches full depth in two thin coats.
- Twenty-one days of wear: ND publishes up to 21 days without chipping or peeling for the DC gel when it is run as a full 3-step service.
- Matching lacquer in the same shade: the duo pairs the soak-off gel with an air-dry lacquer, so a client can touch up at home without a lamp.
- Off in ten to fifteen minutes: DC is a soak-off gel, so removal is a wrap rather than a drill.
- Gloss that holds: the cured finish stays high-shine for the life of the set as long as the top coat caps the free edge.

Picking the right option on this page
On this page you are choosing between DND DC 279 Coral Bells 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. Pick by the services you actually sell. A gel-only salon has no use for the lacquer half of DND DC 279 Coral Bells, and a shop that offers dip in the same shade saves a colour match by taking the combined option.
If the set lifts early
Early lifting is almost always prep rather than the colour, and that holds for DND DC 279 Coral Bells as much as any shade on the wall. Make sure the shine is fully off the plate, the cuticle is pushed back and the surface is dehydrated before the base goes on. Keep every layer thin and cap the free edge on the base, both colour coats and the top. A thick colour coat is the most common cause of a set that peels at the stress point in week two.
DND DC 279 Coral Bells is stocked alongside the DND DC, DND and DIVA gel wall, the spring gel lacquer line-up and the DC gel and lacquer range.
