120 Chiffron gives you a plum purple and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Purple carries both red and blue pigment, so it shifts under salon light and daylight.
What you get in the bottle
- High-gloss finish: the DC gel dries to a glass-like shine that holds for the life of the set.
- Published wear you can quote: up to 21 days without chipping or peeling.
- The client leaves with the shade: DND DC 120 Chiffron ships with a matching air-dry lacquer for touch-ups.
- Lamp-agnostic: cures under LED or UV.
- 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 DC 120 Chiffron 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 DC 120 Chiffron covers gel, lacquer and dip. A tech testing a new colour on a few clients is better off with the duo on its own.
If the set lifts early
Early lifting is almost always prep rather than the colour, and that holds for DND DC 120 Chiffron as much as any shade on the wall. Make sure the shine is fully off the plate, the cuticle is pushed back and the surface is dehydrated before the base goes on. Keep every layer thin and cap the free edge on the base, both colour coats and the top. A thick colour coat is the most common cause of a set that peels at the stress point in week two.
DND DC 120 Chiffron is stocked alongside the DND DC, DND and DIVA gel wall, the whole gel and lacquer category and the full DND gel and lacquer wall.
