NOTD: China Glaze - Coconut Kiss



I've had this on for at least 5 days, before I've remembered to take any pics of this gorgeous colour.  Whoops!  Actually, I still have it on right now, but it is looking a little the worse for wear.  Still, it should last through the day tomorrow - fingers crossed!

  China Glaze Coconut Kiss ( from the Fiji Fling collection) is a really vibrant, glossy metallic violet/purple.  In fact, it reminds me of Cadbury's chocolate wrappers for those of you in the UK.  And for that reason alone,  it is a pain in the arse to photograph.  In some photo's it looked navy blue, some a flat purple. Nothing I could do, would capture this amazing colour in it's true form.  I guess the most accurate colour representation is the one above (taken with flash).  It really needs 2-3+ coats to ensure opacity, but if you can push past that, then you can enjoy this beautiful colour.
