277 Pumpkin Patch gives you a warm orange and a wet-look gloss in one bottle. Orange is a warm-toned shade that lifts tanned and olive skin.
What you get in the bottle
- Two ingredients removed, not the performance: DND 277 Pumpkin Patch keeps the pigment load and the high-gloss finish while leaving out HEMA and TPO.
- Made for the techs too: hands are in product all day, which is why ND stocks this line for the bench as much as the client.
- Self-levelling texture: less fighting the brush, fewer heavy coats.
- Colour choice is not the trade-off: the HEMA and TPO free line runs to 288 shades.
- 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.
Specifications
Spec Value Shade code 277 Shade name Pumpkin Patch Colour family Orange Finish Glossy Bottle size 0.5 oz Formula HEMA-free and TPO-free Item weight 145 grams Bottle glass Condition new Application steps
- Clean the plate: file to shape, ease the cuticle back, take the gloss off and wipe the nail down.
- Foundation: one thin coat of base gel, capped at the free edge, cured.
- Colour, coat one: DND 277 Pumpkin Patch goes on thin. Let it settle rather than working it, that is what the self-levelling texture is for.
- Colour, coat two: the second coat carries the pigment to full depth, cure again.
- Top: top gel over everything, cure, and take off the tacky layer if your top coat leaves one.
- Before they leave: cuticle oil, and note the shade number so the next fill matches.
Where this shade gets booked
- Summer and vacation sets: orange is a warm-toned shade that lifts tanned and olive skin.
- Pairing work: it sits next to a white tip or a gold foil accent.
- Toes, where a glossy finish is what the client asked for.
How it compares with ordinary gel
Compared with the regular DND gel wall, this line swaps the formula rather than the colour range. You still get 288 shades and the same high-gloss finish, without HEMA and without TPO. DND 277 Pumpkin Patch ships as one option rather than a duo-or-single choice, so there is nothing to configure. A client with a known allergy should still patch test first.
If the set lifts early
Early lifting is almost always prep rather than the colour, and that holds for DND 277 Pumpkin Patch 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 277 Pumpkin Patch is stocked alongside the DND HEMA and TPO free collection, the whole gel and lacquer category and the whole gel and lacquer category.
