248 Cherry On Top 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 DIVA lists it as warm bright red. It sits in the summer gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- The client can take the shade home: DND DIVA 248 Cherry On Top ships with a regular polish mixed to match, so a chip is a two-minute fix rather than a rebooking.
- Works with your existing lamp: cures under UV or LED.
- High-gloss, long-lasting: the published finish for the DIVA gel.
- Daisy Gel system: gel colour then top coat, nothing extra to stock.

Which option should you add to the bag
On this page you are choosing between DND DIVA 248 Cherry On Top 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. Most reorders are the plain duo, because the base and top coat outlast any single colour. The DND DIVA 248 Cherry On Top bundles are worth it the first time the shade enters the wall, not on the third reorder.
Matching this shade across services
The point of a duo is that the client can leave with a bottle that matches the set. DND DIVA 248 Cherry On Top is mixed as a pair, so the air-dry lacquer reads as the same colour as the cured gel under normal light. Where the same code also exists as a dip powder, a salon can run gel, lacquer and dip off one shade code without a second colour match. Check the options on this page to see which formats ND carries for this code.
DND DIVA 248 Cherry On Top is stocked alongside the whole DIVA line, the summer gel lacquer line-up and the DIVA gel and lacquer range.
