Picking the right option on this page
On this page you are choosing between DND DC 2540 Orange Soda - Free Spirit Collection 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. Think about who is buying. A mobile tech carries the DND DC 2540 Orange Soda - Free Spirit Collection duo and nothing else. A salon with three stations and a dip menu is better served by the combined option.
How to take it off
DND DC 2540 Orange Soda - Free Spirit Collection 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 2540 Orange Soda - Free Spirit Collection is stocked alongside the DND DC, DND and DIVA gel wall, the whole gel and lacquer category and DC gel colours.
