DND Gel + Lacquer Duo #635 Burgundy Mist

635 Burgundy Mist gives you a blue-based red and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Red shows brush strokes more than most families, so two thin coats beat one thick one. DND lists it as a mysterious and sophisticated deep burgundy with blue undertones. It sits in the winter gel lacquer line-up at ND.

What you get in the bottle

• Thin coats, full colour: DND 635 Burgundy Mist rarely needs a third pass, which keeps the set flexible and less prone to lifting at the stress point.
• Wear you can quote a client: about three weeks on the DND base gel and top coat, cured under LED.
• Take-home match included: the lacquer in this duo is the same shade, so a chip on day twelve is a two-minute fix at home.
• A range worth standardising on: over 1,200 DND gel shades means the wall grows without a second system to learn.

Specifications

Application steps

1. Shape and clean: file, push the cuticle back, take the shine off the plate and wipe it down.
2. Base: a thin layer of DND base gel, capped at the free edge, cured under LED.
3. First colour coat: float DND 635 Burgundy Mist on in a thin layer without touching the sidewalls, then cure.
4. Second colour coat: build to full opacity, cure again.
5. Seal: DND top coat over everything, cure, and remove the tacky layer if there is one.
6. The lacquer half: air-dries over a base coat at home, no lamp required.

Where this shade gets booked

• Evening and date-night sets: red shows brush strokes more than most families.
• Pairing work: it sits next to a glossy top coat and a clean cuticle line.
• Classic pedicures, where a glossy finish is what the client asked for.
• Winter bookings, which is where ND files this shade.

Picking the right option on this page

On this page you are choosing between DND 635 Burgundy Mist 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 + Base Top is the duo bundled with a base and top coat, useful when you are opening a new station. 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 635 Burgundy Mist, and a shop that offers dip in the same shade saves a colour match by taking the combined option.

Storing the bottle

Keep DND 635 Burgundy Mist upright with the cap tight and out of direct sunlight, because daylight will start curing gel in a half-empty bottle. Wipe the neck before you close it so the cap does not seize. Pigment-heavy and glitter shades settle between services, so roll the bottle between your palms rather than shaking it, which puts bubbles in the first coat and shows up under the lamp.

DND 635 Burgundy Mist is stocked alongside the full DND gel and lacquer wall, the winter gel lacquer line-up and DND starter sets.
