001 Winning gives you a milky white and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. White is the hardest shade to lay down evenly, so keep coats thin and cap the free edge.
What you get in the bottle
- A cleaner formula: neither HEMA nor TPO is in this line, which is the first question a sensitive client asks.
- Self-levelling application: the texture flows out on its own, so DND 001 Winning lays flat without chasing it.
- High-gloss finish: the cured surface reads glossy rather than satin.
- 288 shades to match: the HEMA and TPO free line runs to 288 shades, so a salon can standardise on it without losing colour choice.

- Prep: file to shape, push back the cuticle, take the shine off the plate and wipe it clean.
- Base: a thin coat of base gel, capped at the free edge, cured in your lamp.
- Colour coat one: one thin coat of DND 001 Winning. The texture is self-levelling, so resist loading the brush.
- Colour coat two: a second thin coat brings the pigment to full depth, cure again.
- Top coat: seal with a top gel, cure, then remove the tacky layer if your top coat leaves one.
- Aftercare: cuticle oil, and tell the client what changed if they came to you after a reaction.
Where this shade gets booked
- French manicures: white is the hardest shade to lay down evenly.
- Pairing work: it sits next to a French tip or a glazed chrome finish.
- Clean-girl sets, where a glossy finish is what the client asked for.
How it compares with ordinary gel
Put DND 001 Winning 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.
Matching this shade across services
The point of a duo is that the client can leave with a bottle that matches the set. DND 001 Winning 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 001 Winning 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.
