Frequently asked questions about fall colors
What is in the fall colors collection?
More than 400 gel and lacquer duos tagged for fall by the brands ND carries: DND, DND DC, and DND Diva make up the largest group, then OPI, LAVIS, SNS, NuGenesis, and LDS. Every listing pairs a soak-off gel with the same shade as an air-dry lacquer, and most offer the duo, gel only, or lacquer only, with some brands adding a dipping powder or base-and-top option on the same listing.
Which DND fall colors should a salon stock?
DND DC covers a full fall chart on its own: #040 Sandy Brown, #041 Light Mahogany, #042 Red Cherry, #046 Pewter Gray, #048 Electric Purple, #052 Walnut Brown, #053 Spiced Brown, #061 Wine Berry, and #062 Strawberry Wine. DC gel states up to 21 days of wear and soaks off in 10 to 15 minutes. Add the DND Diva effects shades for the art column and the OPI Fall 2026 duos for the client who asks for a name.
Why buy the duo rather than the gel only?
Fall is when clients want fingers and toes to match and the toes do not want a lamp. The duo gives gel on the hands and the matching shade as air-dry lacquer on the feet, and the lacquer doubles as the retail take-home bottle. If the salon only runs gel, the gel-only option on the same listing is the leaner buy.
How do I apply dark fall shades without streaks or staining?
Always use the base coat under reds, wines, and purples, since dark pigment stains a bare nail plate. Apply two thin coats and cure between them; one heavy coat wrinkles and stays tacky. Cure times are 30 seconds under LED for DND and OPI Intelli and 60 seconds for LAVIS, LDS, SNS, and NuGenesis. Cap the free edge with color and top so the tip does not chip first.
Are the fall colors sold at wholesale?
Yes. Every duo at ND Nails Supply is wholesale-priced for everyone, with no business license, no minimum order, and no membership fee. Orders $100+ ship free, and in-stock duos ordered before 2pm PT on weekdays leave the same day. Filter by brand, color, or style option in the sidebar.
Fall gel and lacquer colors, every brand in one place
This page is the fall shade board across ND Nails Supply: more than 400 gel and lacquer duos tagged for the season by the brands ND carries. DND, DND DC, and DND Diva make up the largest group, followed by OPI, LAVIS, SNS, NuGenesis, and LDS. Every listing is a matched pair, a soak-off gel and the same shade as an air-dry lacquer, and most can be bought as the duo, the gel only, or the lacquer only, with several brands adding a dipping powder or a base-and-top option on the same listing. The palette is what fall means on a nail chart: sandy browns, light and dark mahogany, red cherry, wine berry, beet root, walnut, spiced brown, mud oak, pewter and lead gray, electric purple, and the glitters that carry into the holidays.

How to build a fall chart from this page
- The core six: a sandy or camel brown, a mahogany, a cherry red, a wine, a deep purple, and a gray. DND DC covers all six on its own (#040, #041, #042, #061, #048, #046 Pewter Gray).
- The premium column: the OPI Fall 2026 duos (Every Month is Oktoberfest, Vampire State Building, Route Beer Float, Lincoln Park at Midnight) for the client who asks for the name.
- The nude column: LAVIS Modern Neutrals for the client who wants fall without a dark shade.
- The glitter column: filter by Color_Glitter for the shades that carry the chart from Thanksgiving into the holiday sets.
- The pedicure match: every duo's lacquer side is the toe color, so the fall chart doubles as the pedicure chart.
Why buy the duo instead of the gel alone?
Because fall is the season clients want fingers and toes to match and the toes do not want a lamp. The duo gives gel on the hands (2 to 3 weeks, up to 21 days on DND DC) and the matching shade as air-dry lacquer on the feet; gel and lacquer are made to match under one number, so swatch both before promising an exact match. The lacquer is also the retail bottle: a client who takes home the lacquer she just wore comes back for the gel service. If a salon only runs gel, the gel-only option on the same listing is the leaner buy.
How to apply a fall duo
- Gel side. Prep, one thin coat of the brand's base gel cured under LED (30 seconds for DND and OPI Intelli, 60 seconds for LAVIS, LDS, SNS, and NuGenesis), two thin color coats cured after each, then top gel with the free edge capped. Dark fall shades need the base coat more than pastels do; skip it and the nail plate stains.
- Lacquer side. Base coat, two thin coats of the matching lacquer, top coat, air-dried 5 to 8 minutes between coats. A fresh top coat every 3 to 4 days at home stretches a pedicure through the week.
Pro tip: deep reds and wines show every brush stroke when applied thick. Two thin coats, cured between, give the glass finish; one heavy coat wrinkles and stays tacky.
When should the fall chart go up, and when does it come down?
Most salons switch the display in the first week of September, when the OPI and DND fall drops are in stock and clients start asking for browns, and keep it up through Thanksgiving. From late November the glitters and deep reds on this page carry straight into the holiday chart, so the practical move is to leave the wines, the burgundy browns, and the glitter column in place and swap the sandy browns and grays for the winter shades. Because every listing here is tagged by season, the sidebar filter does the rotation: filter fall for September, add the winter tag from December, and the same duos that overlap both seasons stay on the chart without a reorder.
Wear, care, and removal
- Gel: 2 to 3 weeks with daily cuticle oil and gloves for cleaning; DND DC states up to 21 days.
- Lacquer: up to 7 days; refresh the top coat at home.
- Remove gel with a 100 percent acetone foil wrap (10 to 15 minutes on DND DC) and push the softened gel away; lacquer comes off with regular remover.
The art that goes with a fall chart
Fall is the moody-color season on the art tray as well as the color wall. The looks clients bring in are tortoiseshell over amber jellies, gilded stone from a marble ink with a gold vein, a Pat Pat ombre in the brown and burgundy palettes, and a plaid or leaf outline drawn with a brown or gold liner over a mocha cream. On the LAVIS chart the warm block (numbers 205 to 276) and the C06 Maple and Mocha collection are the fall spine; on LDS the Autumn Trails, Harvest Hues, and Fall 1 Color Craze sets; and the OPI Fall 2026 Most Requested drop covers the brand-name request. A salon that sets the fall chart in September pairs two art options with it at the desk, a tortoiseshell accent and a gold-line French, and sells them as a set with the seasonal shade.
