FAQ — DND DC #032 Caribbean Island

Q1: How is DND DC different from standard DND Gel Polish?

DC is the Designer Collection tier — 18mL bottles (vs 15mL standard DND), richer pigment, smoother single-coat coverage. DC and standard DND have separate color codes.

Q2: Is DND DC HEMA-Free?

No. DND DC uses standard premium gel formula. For HEMA-Free formulation, see the separate DND HEMA Free line (codes 210-218 Nautical Blue) or A'DOR HEMA-Free private label.

Q3: Is Caribbean Island closer to teal or seafoam?
