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!!

Barry M Glitter Gradient

Today I have a simple and easy to do glitter gradient using Barry M polishes. No nail art tools needs I just used the brushes that come with the polish to place the glitters on. And that is literally all there is to it. 

Onto the picture...

Polishes I used:

Duri Rejuvacote

Barry M Gelly Blue Plum

Barry M Rose Quartz Glitter

Essie Good To Go Topcoat

I love that this easy, simple and elegant. I chose Rose Quartz Glitter because of the 2 different size glitters in it but this would look great even with just one size glitters.
