129 Pies in the Sky gives you a navy blue and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Blue is high contrast against most skin tones, so a clean cuticle line matters. DND DIVA lists it as dusty blue. It is carried in the spring gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- Gel and regular polish together: DND DIVA 129 Pies in the Sky covers both the lamp service and the air-dry service without a second colour match.
- Lamp-agnostic: the gel cures under UV or LED, so it drops into an existing station.
- Glossy cured finish: long-lasting wear with a high-gloss surface.
- No new system to learn: apply gel colour then top coat, as per the Daisy Gel system.

Duo, single or add the dip
On this page you are choosing between DND DIVA 129 Pies in the Sky 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. Salons running a full service line usually take the combined option so DND DIVA 129 Pies in the Sky covers gel, lacquer and dip. A tech testing a new colour on a few clients is better off with the duo on its own.
How to take it off
DND DIVA 129 Pies in the Sky 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 DIVA 129 Pies in the Sky is stocked alongside the whole DIVA line, the spring gel lacquer line-up and DIVA nail lacquers.
