A friend gifted these succulents to me, I think they are echeverias but would like your help in getting their specific name. The middle one looks like Echeveria PVN, I have no idea what the other two are.

The one on the left has a beautiful blue hue and farina, but I noticed the older leaves already lost their frills, I'd like to know how I can bring their frills back. The green one on the right appears to have waxy.

Thank you all!

Left plant could be Echeveria shaviana or another frilly type (Neon breakers is another I can think of right now). They supposedly get more frilly in great light. IIRC, Neon breakers could get more colorful, with pinkish-reddish margins.

The middle plant could be E. gibbiflora metallica, or PvN as you suggested - they could look very similar. I am not sure about plant on right.

I see plastic liner - make sure there are drainage holes in it. Give plans great drainage, good sunlight and hopefully they grow to be easier to ID.
