498 Lipstick gives you a soft coral and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Coral reads brighter in daylight than under salon lamps, so check it by the window before the second coat. DND lists it as a dreamy deep rosy pink with coral undertones.
What you get in the bottle
- Pigment that covers: DND gel is heavily pigmented, so DND 498 Lipstick reaches full colour in two thin coats.
- Three weeks between fills: run it as a 3-step service with DND base gel and top coat under an LED lamp and it holds for about three weeks.
- Matched lacquer in the box: the duo pairs the gel with an air-dry lacquer in the same shade, so a client can match at home.
- Range that fills a wall: DND carries more than 1,200 gel shades, so a repeat client can stay in the same system for years.
- 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 498 Lipstick 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. Salons running a full service line usually take the combined option so DND 498 Lipstick covers gel, lacquer and dip. A tech testing a new colour on a few clients is better off with the duo on its own.
Matching this shade across services
The point of a duo is that the client can leave with a bottle that matches the set. DND 498 Lipstick 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 498 Lipstick is stocked alongside the full DND gel and lacquer wall, the whole gel and lacquer category and DND DC shades.
