284 Hibiscus 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.
What you get in the bottle
- Rich pigment, smooth lay-down: DND DC 284 Hibiscus covers evenly without the streaking that thin formulas leave on the second coat.
- A three-week-plus service: up to 21 days without chipping or peeling on the published spec.
- LED or UV, whichever you run: the DC gel cures under both, so it drops into an existing station with no new lamp.
- Soak-off, not drill-off: 10 to 15 minutes in a wrap and the layers lift.

Where this shade gets booked

- Bridal and bridesmaid bookings, where a glossy finish is what the client asked for.
Picking the right option on this page
On this page you are choosing between DND DC 284 Hibiscus 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 284 Hibiscus, 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 284 Hibiscus 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 284 Hibiscus is stocked alongside the DND DC, DND and DIVA gel wall, the whole gel and lacquer category and the DC gel and lacquer range.
