PNB 057 Frankness – The Absolute Crimson
Make an honest statement with PNB Gel Polish 057, "Frankness." This shade is a deep, high-pigment crimson that strikes a sophisticated balance between a bright scarlet and a dark wine. It is a "true" classic red that leans slightly toward a cool, blue-toned base, which has the magical effect of making hands look fairer and teeth look whiter. "Frankness" is a dense, creamy enamel that provides a solid, "heavy-duty" color saturation. It is the ultimate choice for a woman who values tradition but wants a red with enough depth to feel modern, expensive, and completely bold.
Key Features:
-
Dense Crimson Pigment: A rich, full-bodied red that maintains its deep intensity without shifting or fading over time.
-
Full-Coverage Enamel: Engineered for maximum opacity, providing a solid, professional finish in two thin layers that completely hide the natural nail line.
-
Liquid Mirror Effect: The self-leveling formula glides onto the nail, automatically correcting surface irregularities for a smooth, high-fashion architecture.
-
Universal Sophistication: A versatile shade that works beautifully for autumn/winter wardrobes but remains a striking "power color" year-round.
-
3-Week Resilience: Formulated to resist the rigors of daily life, keeping your "Frankness" red chip-free and mirror-shiny for up to 21 days.
-
7-FREE Professional Safety: Hypoallergenic and gentle on the natural nail, adhering to the highest global safety standards for salon-grade results.
Creative Ideas:
-
Midnight Edge: Pair "Frankness" with a single accent nail of PNB 023 Black Royal or PNB 183 Black Silver for a moody, high-contrast look.
-
Red Velvet Matte: Apply PNB Powder Matte Top to transform this deep crimson into a soft, "velveteen" texture that looks incredibly luxurious.
-
Classic Hollywood: Wear as a full monochromatic set—the gold standard for a "polished professional" or a "glamorous evening" aesthetic.
How to Use:
-
Prep: Perform a standard manicure, cleanse with PNB Nail Prep, and apply Bond Control.
-
Base: Apply your preferred PNB Base Coat (Scotch Base is excellent for dark reds) and cure for 60 seconds (LED).
-
Color: Apply a thin layer of PNB 057 Frankness. Cure under an LED lamp for 60 seconds. Apply a second thin layer to lock in the deep, honest saturation and cure again.
-
Seal: Finish with PNB Express Top for a high-gloss shine that emphasizes the depth of the crimson.
