788 Deja Vu 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 this bright grassy green shade will want to make you run around barefoot on the lawn. It sits in the summer gel lacquer line-up at ND.
What you get in the bottle
- Thin coats, full colour: DND 788 Deja Vu rarely needs a third pass, which keeps the set flexible and less prone to lifting at the stress point.
- Wear you can quote a client: about three weeks on the DND base gel and top coat, cured under LED.
- Take-home match included: the lacquer in this duo is the same shade, so a chip on day twelve is a two-minute fix at home.
- A range worth standardising on: over 1,200 DND gel shades means the wall grows without a second system to learn.

Which option should you add to the bag
On this page you are choosing between DND 788 Deja Vu 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. If you already stock base and top coat, the plain DND 788 Deja Vu duo is the sensible reorder. The bundled options exist for a new station or a second room that has nothing in it yet.
Matching this shade across services
The point of a duo is that the client can leave with a bottle that matches the set. DND 788 Deja Vu 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 788 Deja Vu is stocked alongside the full DND gel and lacquer wall, the summer gel lacquer line-up and gel and lacquer in bulk.
