Product Description
For anyone tired of pastel lilacs, DNKa Cover Base #0033 Esthetic offers something different — a deep, saturated lilac that holds its own instead of fading into a soft lavender like #0023 Tender. This is a dense camouflage base from the DNKa Cover Base line, built for people who want a real lilac statement rather than a muted, "safe" color.
The formula has a medium density and medium hardness, self-levels well, and doesn't run toward the cuticle or side walls, leaving an even, glossy finish. It holds its shape during wear and resists chipping.
Application follows the standard DNKa Cover process: degrease → non-acid primer → foundation layer (DNKa Nano Base / Rubber Base / Fiber Base), cured 60 seconds under LED/hybrid or 2 minutes under UV → a leveling layer of Esthetic itself, cured the same way → finished with DNKa Top No Wipe or Top Matt No Wipe for a glossy or matte result.
The depth of this shade makes it a natural fit for colder-weather manicures, and it pairs well with silver or gunmetal accents — the kind of pairing that would look flat against a pastel lilac.
