074 Gloss Pilot gives you a clear pink and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Pink sits close to most natural nail beds, so regrowth shows up slowly.
What you get in the bottle
- Formulated without HEMA: the methacrylate behind most gel sensitivity complaints is simply not in DND 074 Gloss Pilot.
- No TPO either: the photoinitiator that can catch skin and eyes is left out as well.
- Levels itself: the texture settles after the stroke, so the second coat of DND 074 Gloss Pilot does not show brush marks.
- A full wall, not a shelf: 288 shades means a salon can convert the whole colour wall rather than keep a token few.

- Clean the plate: file to shape, ease the cuticle back, take the gloss off and wipe the nail down.
- Foundation: one thin coat of base gel, capped at the free edge, cured.
- Colour, coat one: DND 074 Gloss Pilot goes on thin. Let it settle rather than working it, that is what the self-levelling texture is for.
- Colour, coat two: the second coat carries the pigment to full depth, cure again.
- Top: top gel over everything, cure, and take off the tacky layer if your top coat leaves one.
- Before they leave: cuticle oil, and note the shade number so the next fill matches.
Where this shade gets booked
- Everyday salon sets: pink sits close to most natural nail beds.
- Pairing work: it sits next to a milky white for a soft French or a clear top for a bare look.
- Bridal and bridesmaid bookings, where a glossy finish is what the client asked for.
How it compares with ordinary gel
Put DND 074 Gloss Pilot next to the same shade family on the regular DND wall and the difference is not on the nail, it is in the bottle. The pigment and the gloss carry over. HEMA and TPO do not. That matters for the client who has come back twice with a sore cuticle, and for the tech whose hands are in product forty hours a week. A known allergy still calls for a patch test.
Storing the bottle
Keep DND 074 Gloss Pilot upright with the cap tight and out of direct sunlight, because daylight will start curing gel in a half-empty bottle. Wipe the neck before you close it so the cap does not seize. Pigment-heavy and glitter shades settle between services, so roll the bottle between your palms rather than shaking it, which puts bubbles in the first coat and shows up under the lamp.
DND 074 Gloss Pilot is stocked alongside the DND HEMA and TPO free collection, the whole gel and lacquer category and every HEMA and TPO free gel ND stocks.
