274 Zesty Vibe gives you a warm orange and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Orange is a warm-toned shade that lifts tanned and olive skin. DND DC lists it as a zesty creamsicle orange creme. It is carried in the spring gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- Two coats is the norm: DND DC 274 Zesty Vibe is pigmented enough that a third pass is rarely needed, which keeps the set thin.
- Up to 21 days: the DC line's published wear when used with base gel and top coat.
- Easy removal: soaks off in 10 to 15 minutes, so a rebalance does not thin the plate.
- Bigger bottle: DC ships in 0.6 oz rather than the 0.5 oz the regular DND line uses.

Picking the right option on this page
On this page you are choosing between DND DC 274 Zesty Vibe 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 + 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 DC 274 Zesty Vibe, and a shop that offers dip in the same shade saves a colour match by taking the combined option.
Matching this shade across services
The point of a duo is that the client can leave with a bottle that matches the set. DND DC 274 Zesty Vibe 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 DC 274 Zesty Vibe is stocked alongside the DND DC, DND and DIVA gel wall, the spring gel lacquer line-up and the DC gel and lacquer range.
