Hi all, I made my first purchase from cracked polish during their September sale. I got the shades buttoned brown and sweeter the juice. I’m a little bit dissatisfied in the latter. I’m not sure if my expectations were unrealistic, or if I got one that is different to the others. I was expecting it to be a bit more jelly-like, but I find this more like a creme with a slight squishiness. I also feel like it’s brighter than a lot of the swatch pictures show in real life E
(Except for ones in sunlight.) I don’t know if I’m being unreasonable, but I think I’m going to return it. I’m very happy with buttoned brown at least!

I think it is more of a crelly in reality. I think it is gorgeous on you, but I have only heard great things about Cracked customer service, so if you aren’t satisfied, definitely reach out.
I found that this got MUCH juicier after I added a glossy top coat. You could try that!
Weird, I ordered mine around the same time and found it to be slightly duller than the photos until I added a glossy top coat. It looks great/accurate to me but if you’re not happy with it you can always email them
Looks fine to me. Keep in mind that swatchers use optimal and possibly multiple lighting and could be using blurring base coats, false nails, etc. The polish is rarely going to look as good as the swatches.
your picture does look more opaque than the swatch to me! if it was just the color, you could just add a drop of purple in, but I think this is justified
It’s also likely that your skin tone pulls more pink out of it.
