Love this collection, especially the ethereal. And of course, it's all sold out already HAHA It's only been an hour. Glad it will be available on the ethereal site later tonight!
@@corsicanlulu The whole collection sold out in less than an hour on the Cracked site in the morning. 'Mysteriously Me' is the only one still left on the Ethereal site. But the collection sold out within minutes! (I was stalking the site because I was going to buy the Ethereal Faerie collection anyway). Monique said they are bringing the polishes back at some point because they were not expecting such a high demand and for them to sell out so quickly, and to wishlist the ones you want on the Cracked website so they know how many more bottles to make.
Thank you for sharing!! 😍 Cracked’s reds make my jaw drop everytime omg. I just got and recently swatched situationship and several other polishes from their Black Friday sale! Thank you for the extra discount code to use! 🤭 $6.54-$9.36 each was a STEAL for their quality! The more I try from Cracked the more I love them! ❤ Which makes me wonder what your favorite brands overall are 👀 Will you ever do a “top brands” or brands “ranked” video? Or would that get folks too heated?🌶️ 😬 😂
Omg thank you for posting this!!! I saw the collab and I really need a swatch and review like yours before I consider a purchase. The photos really caught my eye. Especially for the two blurple shades. So ethereal and misty
All are pretty, but I've recently bought 3 Cracked blues, and I'm eagerly awaiting a Cracked deep red (with purple and pink shimmer!) from HHC. Not to mention several from Mooncat's Star Wars collection. Finally, I have many of the near-dupes mentioned ... so, I'm good! Thanks for the great video. The comparisons are extremely helpful!
Omg I was eyeing that cracked from HHC!! But I thought I might have something similar so I convinced myself out of it, hope I don’t regret it lol 😆 but it’s great you can basically dupe this collection with your stash, the color story is so pretty!! I’m glad you still enjoyed watching 🤗
Sweeter the Juice is kind of funny because, considering the name reference, it's a pretty bright berry color 😆 It's gorgeous though, and I love how vibrant it is
Thanks for this video and the comparisons!! I woke up this morning thinking I NEEDED these polishes in my collection but after watching this I feel good about skipping it. I have similar polishes or can combine some to get a similar vibe so I will be appreciating this collection from afar ❤
Yay! I am happy you got these in PR! My faves: Ethereal “So Chill” 😮💨😮💨😮💨 Ethereal “Cool Night”, 😮💨😮💨 Ethereal “Bliss” 😮💨😮💨😮💨 Cracked “Mysteriously Me” 😮💨😮💨 Cracked “Infinite Thrill” 😮💨😮💨😮💨 I love these as a skittle!! Cracked “Midnight Phase”, 😮💨😮💨 Cracked “Moonboots” Cracked “Sweeter the Juice”😮💨😮💨 ILNP “Crystal” is prettier than Moonboots! Thank you as always for the swatches and comparisons! And as usual- you looked lovely🌸
This collection is GORGEOUS ❤ I grabbed Cool Night, Bliss, So Chill, Infinite Thrill, Lunar Lux Duo, JOTM and Gingerbread Man sticker then went back and grabbed French75 + Menace sticker in a 2nd order. This sold out SO FAST!! I'm so grateful I was able to get all the shades I wanted ❤
Hm they definitely have the same kind of intense blue shimmer, but Flower Child is much more Pink! And I believe also has a holo sparkle too, so I’d call them like cousin shades 🤣
Thanks for the comparisons! Really does help. The crimson looks so close to mooncat the arsonist. If I can get my hands on it I won’t need the arsonist!
I did not have the best experience with Cracked jellies. My 1st one was Chocolate Gram, and while applying, it feels like the polish dries so fast, that I had to go pretty heavy handed to have a decent amount all over the nail. The same was with My Blood Aches, which btw was not red, as pictured on the website, but rather brown-red. Despite this, I ordered this lovely magenta jelly just for the sake of color haha, I'll try to thin it out.
I'm a sucker for anything pearlescent, so Infinite Thrill and So Chill were automatic add-to-cart. I'm still building a collection, and I've been really interested in acquiring a bright blue shimmer topper, but I've held back for many months because I get the ick from the translucent yellowy color that shows up in the base of all of those that I've seen. However, Bliss having a super-sheer taupe base is the perfect solution. It's all the electric blue shimmer particles without the sickly yellow tinge. Glad to have snagged it. The other shades are too dark for my personal preference, but the whole look of the collection is very sleek and definitely matches that inspiration of night time city lights excitement 🌆 Thanks also for the comparison of the JOTM with CC Bitten. Upon seeing some earlier PR photos, I suspected those subtle differences of slightly more purple-y, slightly more opaque, and it's nice to see that confirmed. Appreciate your work! 🌟
I love this collab, but-- these make me want to wear my existing Ethereal shades and polishes that are close to these! I do agree with your take on the Ethereal polishes cus she has a tendency to make similar shades, while also saying that she doesn't write down her formulas, so... I do see that 2/3 shades from this are a little too similar to be in the same collab.
Thank you for always taking the time to do comparisons! That is really helpful, and no one else really does that regularly. 😊
of course!! i’m happy to help 🥰
She's the BEST 😍
Agreed!
Your comparisons are immensely helpful! Thank you so much for including those in your videos. ❤

you’re so welcome!! these colors are superr gorgeous, yess ethereal and misty are perfect ways to describe them 🤩
So appreciate the comparisons & honest critiques of the shades. I love So Chill & Crimson Ecstasy.
My pleasure!! So glad you love those 😁

Such stunning shades ❤

Ethereal “So Chill” 😮💨😮💨😮💨
Ethereal “Cool Night”, 😮💨😮💨
Ethereal “Bliss” 😮💨😮💨😮💨
Cracked “Mysteriously Me” 😮💨😮💨
Cracked “Infinite Thrill” 😮💨😮💨😮💨
I love these as a skittle!!
Cracked “Midnight Phase”, 😮💨😮💨
Cracked “Moonboots”
Cracked “Sweeter the Juice”😮💨😮💨
ILNP “Crystal” is prettier than Moonboots!
Thank you as always for the swatches and comparisons! And as usual- you looked lovely🌸

Moonboots is kind of compelling. It's a subtle slow burn magnetic. Cool Night is just WOW!
I can see that! I do like how it looks once built up, but yes Cool Night is a stunnerrr 🤩
@PolishedYogi it's so good 💅🤩
Thank you for the swatches and comparisons! Definitely helps shorten my oh so long lists 😅
You’re so welcome!! 😆
Crimson ecstasy is so gorgeous!!!!
it really is!! monique keeps making incredible reds, somehow each new one is better than the last 😝😍♥️
I think Bliss looks a bit like ILNP’s Flower Child?
Hm they definitely have the same kind of intense blue shimmer, but Flower Child is much more Pink! And I believe also has a holo sparkle too, so I’d call them like cousin shades 🤣
This helped so much ! Thanks! Sux about the formula for the jelly of the month but I can’t pass on that shade so I’ll be snatching that one for sure 😅
so happy to hear that!! yeah maybe i was struggling with the jelly for some reason but totally agree the color is worth it lol 🙈
For Moonboots - ILNP Teddy or Cirque Halo?
Ugh they are so pretty but they are all so cool toned :(
Thanks for the comparisons! Really does help. The crimson looks so close to mooncat the arsonist. If I can get my hands on it I won’t need the arsonist!

The 3 cracked polishes are absolutely gorgeous!😍 super opaque and the colors are stunning. The ethereal on the other are very meh at best...
Right!! I was so blown away by those 🤩 & yeah I do wish I liked the ethereal more.. 🥲
Dang these are all sold out already
😔 Sold out within the hour.
they went so fast on Cracked’s site, but will be available on Ethereal’s later tonight!!
I love this collab, but-- these make me want to wear my existing Ethereal shades and polishes that are close to these!

I do see that 2/3 shades from this are a little too similar to be in the same collab.
also, now looking back on it, the taupe shade from Cracked reminds me of Sandbar from ILNP, but of course with some opacity.
Why do two indies do collaboration like this? I'm sincerely just curious
