435 Spring Leaf gives you a deep green and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Green swings cool or warm depending on the base, so check it against the client's skin. DND lists it as an electric green neon. It sits in the summer gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- Two thin coats is usually enough: the pigment load in DND 435 Spring Leaf is high, which keeps the set thin and cuts down on lifting.
- Built for the 3-step system: base gel, gel colour, top coat, each cured under an LED lamp, gives about three weeks of wear.
- The client takes the shade home: the matching lacquer air-dries, so touch-ups between appointments need no lamp.
- Depth of range: with more than 1,200 shades DND lets a salon standardise on one system without running out of colour.

- Bench prep: shape the free edge, lift the cuticle back, take the gloss off the surface and dehydrate.
- Lay the base: DND base gel goes on thin and capped, then straight under the LED lamp.
- Colour, first pass: a thin coat of DND 435 Spring Leaf stopping a hair short of the cuticle, then cure.
- Colour, second pass: this pass closes any thin spots in the pigment, cure again.
- Top and cure: DND top coat over the full nail, cure, and take off the tacky layer if your top coat leaves one.
- What the client takes home: the matching lacquer needs only a base coat and air time, no lamp.
Where this shade gets booked
- Autumn and winter sets: green swings cool or warm depending on the base.
- Pairing work: it sits next to a gold accent nail or a matte top.
- Editorial nail art, where a glossy finish is what the client asked for.
- Summer bookings, which is where ND files this shade.
Which option should you add to the bag
On this page you are choosing between DND 435 Spring Leaf 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 + Base Top is the duo bundled with a base and top coat, useful when you are opening a new station. Gel & Lacquer + Dipping Powder is gel, lacquer and dip powder together, so one shade covers all three services. Most reorders are the plain duo, because the base and top coat outlast any single colour. The DND 435 Spring Leaf bundles are worth it the first time the shade enters the wall, not on the third reorder.
How to take it off
DND 435 Spring Leaf is a soak-off gel, so nothing here needs to be drilled off. Break the seal by filing through the top coat until the shine is gone, then wrap each nail in an acetone-soaked pad and leave it long enough for the layers to lift on their own. Ease the softened gel off with a wooden pusher. If it resists, re-wrap rather than scrape, because scraping is what thins the plate and causes the next set to lift.
DND 435 Spring Leaf is stocked alongside the full DND gel and lacquer wall, the summer gel lacquer line-up and DND starter sets.
