Meet Cracked Polish’s Three Little Pinkies 💅🏼 Neutrals for a Your Nails But Better Look!

[@denisenugent3966]

I like the shearness of them.

[@PolishedYogi]

definitely adds some elegance and class to them!

[@sj3designs]

I think this collection is so cute! ❤❤❤

[@PolishedYogi]

so glad you think so too!!

[@PocketSleuth]

They're all so cute! I just prefer Cirque Color's Jellies to these that are more milky looking...I do think it's funny when ILNP took out 2 blues in their Cabana collection I was a bit disappointed but a 3 pink collection has me excited and wishing they had more 😆 the pink bias is real ✊😔 thank you for the comparisons as always!! 💗

[@PolishedYogi]

LOL you know what that’s a good point 🙈 buuut I think for sheers it’s basically allowed haha! and Cirque’s jellies/sheers are really nice too ✨

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

I think this is a brilliant release. I am so glad you took the opportunity to go over the comparisons. Thank you

[@PolishedYogi]

so glad you enjoyed this release! and my review & comparisons too :) 💕

[@yangkuma]

Picking these up! Thank you for the review 💜💜

[@PolishedYogi]

yayy exciting!! would love to know which one ends up being your favorite 😍

Pinkie pink is a need 😍

[@PolishedYogi]

so cute right!!

[@janetdunleavy3926]

Oh I love these SO much!!!! I love a chic sheet neutral! 💖

[@PolishedYogi]

aren’t they so elegant!!

[@cynthiajfaulkner8655]

Nice to see them expanding into jellies, and I think these will work for those with different skintones if they want to match.

[@PolishedYogi]

Yess I was thinking these would probably look incredible on medium & deeper skin tones! My best friend often hates the super white based pink sheers but loves shades like Georgette, it’s crazy how different colors can read!

All three are so beautiful!! I want all three 😅 Thank you as always for the lovely swatches and comparisons🌸

[@kristinarodriguez5356]

They are all so pretty and squishy! I can't wait to get mine. They should be delivered tomorrow!

[@PolishedYogi]

Yay how exciting!! Which one will you wear first?!

[@sreginachu]

I ADORE "Three Little Pinkies"! Totally agree with you on brands all doing their own sheers/neutral lines -- and tbh I'm happy Cracked did this as a standalone collection in between seasons :) I'm also drawn most to Pinky Pink since I think the color correction for stained nails would be really helpful, but I tend to prefer Brownie Pink just in terms of overall depth and hue. My only complaint with this is that I wish the individual names were a little more... poetic? But I don't think that's Cracked's vibe, they're more of a laidback brand, so that's just my personal preference :)

[@PolishedYogi]

isnt the name perfect!! love it just as much as Mascara Flakes for the black flake topper 🤣 and omg totally agree about loving that these are an in between release! though i feel like she releases monthly anyway so its not as bad as doing seasonal drops 😅 i think Brownie Pink would look so cute on you! i love how it looks in other swatches. & ooo yes I normally am not a fan of straightforward names (like Holo Taco naming every yellow Banana something, every green = mint something etc 😒) BUT yeah this def seems very on par with Cracked as a brand!

[@MoniqueVanRey]

Thank you so much for sharing!! Lovely swatches ❤❤❤❤ great comparisons 😊

[@PolishedYogi]

thank you soo much Monique!! 🤗🫶🏼

[@kipp3100]

I think on you pinky pink looks the best in one coat, peachy in two, and brownie maybe more for French tips cause it blends in nicely with your skin tone by your cuticles. I’d wonder how brownie pink would look in the winter tho (idk how much paler you get in the winter, but a darker sheer neutral screams winter to me lol)

[@PolishedYogi]

oh yes i totally agree! and sadly i’m already as pale as i get LOL but yeah I can see myself using Brownie in the fall or winter too!

[@invaderzimm1010]

Oh no, it's my favorite type of polish! I'm stuck between Peachy and Brownie, but they all look so lovely I don't think I could go wrong!

[@PolishedYogi]

aren’t they so pretty!! yeah I really don’t think you could go wrong with either, I hope you follow them on social media to see more swatches!!

[@iluvjpm]

I have Pinky in my wish list, but after seeing the comparisons I might just want all 3. Georgette has been sold out every time I try to buy it, but since Brownie seems to be a dupe, plus a bigger bottle at a lower price, I'll probably get that instead of Georgette.

[@PolishedYogi]

Yes definitely think Brownie is worth getting over Georgette since it’s really similar but a better price per size! I do wonder why it’s taken Cirque so long to bring that one back though..

[@learp17]

Omg I just ordered these after watching this video! I’ve been obsessed with finding perfect sheers and these look like they will fit the bill! Thank you for posting this!

[@PolishedYogi]

how exciting!! I hope you’ll love these, keep me updated! 💅🏼✨

"Three Little Pinkies" is such a cute name! Pinky Pink would be the one for me! 🦩

i know right!! ugh i love it so much hehe and yess that one is super pretty!

[@viacheddar]

Super cute collection. I think a great staple for the brand.

[@PolishedYogi]

totally agree!! 🐷

[@tabularasa]

Will you review the new Cracked Polish Artificial Flavors collection? They look so pretty. You helped me to become a jelly polish fiend this year 😅 and I'm curious how Cracked Grapeness compares to Cirque Eros Jelly. Eros seems deeper and maybe more red leaning purple, but if anyone would know, you would! 💅

[@PolishedYogi]

unfortunately i didn’t have time to do a review for that collection, in case you missed it CaitlinSwatches has a video on them ! but as far as Grapeness goes you’re correct that its more blue leaning than Eros Jelly, feel free to send me a DM and i can show you :)

[@tabularasa]

@@PolishedYogi Thanks! Yes, I saw Caitlin's video, I think that's how I became aware of the new collection. But you are the queen of comparisons 😊 I don't use social media other than KZbin, but I really appreciate your description verifying my hunch about the differences in these purples! 💜

[@jenniferw392]

Granted I’m not an expert, but I think you do pretty well describing colors! Love this little collection!

[@PolishedYogi]

Haha thank you!! I definitely try my best 😝

[@lisapierce525]

I love the Pinky Pink. That will suit my skin tone the best. Have a great day!

Hi, Stephanie! I'm just curious. Are you going to swatch and review the Artificial Flavors collection?

These are lovely but I already own Dimension Nails Strawberry Soy Milk, Orange Pecan Milk and Chocolate Cashew Milk. Definitely not dupes, I agree, but still close enough I think I’m gonna hold off - at least for now lol.

[@PolishedYogi]

Omg yeah I didn’t even think of showing Orange Pecan Milk lol! I totally get you though, those 3 are still really good! …for now 🤪

Cirque Color's Georgette is one of my all time favorite polishes because I use it for 90% of my negative space nail art. But it's too sheer for me! I need at least 5 coats to build up to an acceptable opacity for nail art, and even then, I still have VNL. Is Brownie Pink a perfect dupe or is it more opaque?

[@PolishedYogi]

ahh it’s hard to say since I never tried building either of those to opacity.. i think Brownie Pink IS a bit more pigmented, but it’s not gonna completely cover your nail line in 3 coats :/ i honestly think you should look into a blurring base coat to help cover up your VNL under sheers! Polished For Days has a few called Soft Focus Base Coats in different colors, I think I would suggest Briar Rose as it seems close in color to Georgette so it won’t alter the color too much!

[@sharibc3597]

I looked at these, they are so cute! But I think I have so many pinks and peachy pinks I’ll pass on these. The brownie I’m afraid would look too close to my skin color. 😕 If they had some shimmer in them or flakies or the like I might have picked them up. I have lots of jellies and just aren’t wearing them much lately. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@PolishedYogi]

i totally understand that! i feel that way about certain colors/finishes too, once i have one or two I don’t feel the need for more 😅 and aw yeah i can also understand reaching for something more sparkly, especially in the summer! 💅🏼✨

[@bethanneelion3475]

[@tabularasa]

Sorry, just scrolling comments and saw yours, wondering if you have any methods for combatting peeling? I got into nail polish about 6-7 months ago, but noticed my tips really starting to peel about 6 weeks ago. I know it's partly from contact with water, so I've tried to be conscious about how long my hands are submerged, definitely always wear gloves when washing dishes now, but after some searching online, I also found that it could be because my base coat has polyvinyl butyral in it. Apparently it's a really sticky component that is great for keeping polish on the nail, but also might have the effect of being so sticky that it actually lifts up a layer of the nail as well, when removing the polish. People with naturally oily nails don't seem to have issues with it, but I sure do. I filed down my length almost to my nail line, but there's still a few more weeks of growth that needs to happen before the peeled bits are grown out. Keeping my nails painted in meantime though, because it does give them a protective shell. I'm currently trying out an easily found drugstore base coat (Essie smooth-e) that doesn't have PVB in it, hoping it helps! Will you let me know if you find anything that works?
