China Glaze You Drive Me Coconuts

Good morning to you! :) I'm up bright and early today. My husband woke me up at 5:30 this morning, then promptly fell back asleep. I couldn't do the same, so I thought I might as well get up and get something done. I have to say, if I could change just one thing about me, my top wish is to be a heavier sleeper. I so envy the folks who could just fall sleep anytime and stay sleeping through everything.

Today, I've got another one of the jellies from the China Glaze Sunsational Collection to share with you. You Drive Me Coconuts is a bright magenta pink with hints of purple and a squishy jelly finish.






This has such a fantastic formula! It goes on exactly as you would hope for a jelly, smooth and thin with no application issues. It's also nicely pigmented and builds up coverage quickly. You can probably get away with just two coats for this one, but I did three for the swatches and it's almost totally opaque at that. :)

You can find You Drive Me Coconuts at your local nail salons and at beauty stores such as Ulta and Sally Beauty for a retail price of $7 for 0.5 fl oz.

    So bright and gorgeous! I'm not into neons, really, but you're making this collection look absolutely brilliant, Yun ♥
    I'm pretty touchy when it comes to sleep, too. I have to fall asleep first or it won't be a good night and I HAVE to fall asleep to the tv and it has to be certain shows, lol. I'd probs be better off using drugs. lol. Anyhoo, I do hope you have a better night tonight.

      Aww thanks a bunch, Liesl, I'm so glad you think so! <3 I don't want to resort to drugs cause I feel like it's partly mental, so I don't want to get addicted to them. Then I'll really be in trouble lol. I slept better last night and feel much better now. :)

    This is solo gorgeous!!! I'm trying soo hard this year not to buy any new neons since I still have to go through the ones I bought last year!
    And you will hate me but I'm one of those sleep anywhere, anytime people... There could be a tornado outside and I won't know any better! The downside though is that I need at least 8 to 9 hours of sleep to be rested and I just can't bring myself to go to bed at 9!! I'd rather be painting my nails LOL ;)

      Thanks, I think it's beautiful too! :) You too? With all the scientific advancements, you'd think they'd be able to make everyone be a deep sleeper by now.
