223 Girlcode 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
- 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 223 Girlcode 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.

Spec Value Shade code 223 Shade name Girlcode Colour family Pink Finish Glossy Bottle size 0.5 oz Formula HEMA-free and TPO-free Item weight 145 grams Bottle glass Condition new Application steps
- 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 223 Girlcode. 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
- 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.
Why a salon moves a client onto this line
The choice on this line is not which format to take, it is this formula against ordinary gel. Ordinary gel polish is built on HEMA, and cures with photoinitiators that commonly include TPO. DND 223 Girlcode leaves both out while keeping the pigment load and the high-gloss finish. If a client has come back with redness at the cuticle after a gel service, this is the line to move them onto. Anyone with a known allergy should still patch test before a full set.
Storing the bottle
Keep DND 223 Girlcode 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 223 Girlcode is stocked alongside the DND HEMA and TPO free collection, the whole gel and lacquer category and DND, DC and DIVA shades.
