Movie Mani: X-MEN Days Of Future Past

So, a bit late on posting this, I did this when X-Men came out and never got a chance to post these. 
But I finally have some time for this super quick post and I hope you like these. 


My inspiration in the corner



Polishes I used:
Essie 3in1 Base
Sally Hansen Wet Cement
Barry M Grey
Sally Hansen Brisk Blue
Barry M Blood Orange
Nails Inc Hampstead Gardens
Seche Vite

I also used:
Striping Tape
Fine Detail Nail Art Brush

I used 3 strips of tape side by side to get the thickness of the X on my middle, ring and pinky finger. 

Thanks for reading!!

Movie Mani : The Hunger Games

My favourite kind of manis are Movie Manis! And today I have one of my favourtie movies/books; The Hunger Games. 
I am a huge fan of both the books and the games. As you can probably tell I love watching movies and I love nail art so more often than not if there is a movie out that I like, I WILL do some related nail art. 

Lets take a look at the nail art and then I will take you through what I did. 




Please excuse my dry cuticle I forgot to moisturise them before I took these pictures. 

I attempted the needle dragging technique for what are supposed to be flames on my ring finger and pinky. I'm not overly happy about them and I definitely need a bit more practice at it but I think they do the job. 
For the middle finger I drew the Mockingjay pin. 
My index finger has the number 12 on it to represent District 12.
I ran out of ideas for the thumb so I just did a glitter gradient that would match with the rest of the mani. 


Polishes I used:
Duri Rejuvacote
Sally Hansen Ceramics - Raven 
No.7 Devils Delight
OPI Y'all Come Back You Hear
Orly Luxe
OPI Glow Up Already!
Seche Vite

I also used:
Needle
Small Detailing Nail Art Brush

So that just about sums up my mani, I hope you like it! If you have done a Hunger Games mani, link it in the comments, I would love to see them!!

Thanks for reading!!

Movie Mani: Star Trek

Today I have some nails for Star Trek Into Darkness. I love Star Trek! Well.. ever since Chris Pine has been Captain Kirk *swoon*. Ad when I found out Benedict Cumberbatch would be playing the villain I got even more excited.. if that were even possible! 

I wanted to do a mani inspired by Star Trek for when I went to watch it.. which just happened to be on the day it came out.. and at the first showing (I did tell you I love Star Trek). Unfortunately I didn't get to do a mani for it on the day but when I got home...

 This is what I came up with...






Those of you who have seen the movie(s) won't need me to tell you what I did but for those of you who don't know I attempted the costumes on my fingers, Gold (mustard) for Kirk, Blue for Spock, Red for Scotty and Ahura and Black for Khan. 

I am really pleased with these. They turned out better than I expected. I was supposed to use tape to keep the tips neat but...ain't nobody got time for that! lol.  

Polishes I used:
Duri Rejuvacote
Essie 3in1 Base
Wet n Wild Ink Well
Nails Inc Hampstead Gardens
Nails Inc Denim
Nails Inc Greenwich Market
Barry M Silver Foil
Seche Vite
