136 Candy Coated 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 DIVA lists it as bright warm pink. It is carried in the spring gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- A matched pair, not a near-match: DND mixes DND DIVA 136 Candy Coated as gel polish and regular polish in the same shade, so the take-home bottle reads the same as the set.
- Two services off one shade: the gel cures under a lamp for a full set, the regular polish air-dries for a quick colour change.
- High-gloss finish: the cured gel reads glossy rather than satin.
- Runs on the Daisy Gel system: gel colour then top coat, the same sequence your station already uses.
- 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.

Duo, single or add the dip
On this page you are choosing between DND DIVA 136 Candy Coated 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 136 Candy Coated covers gel, lacquer and dip. A tech testing a new colour on a few clients is better off with the duo on its own.
Storing the bottle
Keep DND DIVA 136 Candy Coated 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 DIVA 136 Candy Coated is stocked alongside the whole DIVA line, the spring gel lacquer line-up and DIVA nail lacquers.
