742 Minty Mint 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 a strikingly muted ocean green that shines bright. It is carried in the spring gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- Two thin coats is usually enough: the pigment load in DND 742 Minty Mint 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.

Duo, single or add the dip
On this page you are choosing between DND 742 Minty Mint 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. Salons running a full service line usually take the combined option so DND 742 Minty Mint 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 742 Minty Mint 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 742 Minty Mint is stocked alongside the full DND gel and lacquer wall, the spring gel lacquer line-up and DND DC shades.
