275 Sandcastles 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 sandy apricot pastel. It is carried in the spring gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- Colour that covers: the DC formula is richly pigmented, so DND DC 275 Sandcastles reaches full depth in two thin coats.
- Twenty-one days of wear: ND publishes up to 21 days without chipping or peeling for the DC gel when it is run as a full 3-step service.
- Matching lacquer in the same shade: the duo pairs the soak-off gel with an air-dry lacquer, so a client can touch up at home without a lamp.
- Off in ten to fifteen minutes: DC is a soak-off gel, so removal is a wrap rather than a drill.
- 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.

Picking the right option on this page
On this page you are choosing between DND DC 275 Sandcastles 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 275 Sandcastles, 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 275 Sandcastles 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 275 Sandcastles is stocked alongside the DND DC, DND and DIVA gel wall, the spring gel lacquer line-up and the DC gel and lacquer range.
