A soft sun-kissed taupe for polished nails that feel refined, modern, and effortlessly wearable.
✦ Soft Taupe Color, Two Ways
DND HEMA & TPO-Free Duo #199 Taupe-less Tan brings together one gel polish and one matching traditional lacquer in a pale mauve-taupe shade. The duo format makes it easy to create a coordinated manicure moment, whether you are offering a cured gel service or a classic air-dry lacquer option.
Each bottle is 15 mL / 0.5 fl oz and is designed to be bottle-for-bottle matched, so the gel and lacquer read similarly in color. The gel polish requires a UV/LED lamp and is finished with the appropriate top coat for a glossy look, while the lacquer air-dries with standard lacquer base and top coats.
