Hey, hey! :)
The title says it already, but I'm doing a manicure inspired by a character today and it's Effie Trinket! She is like the escort for the District 12 tributes and a real colorful character :D In the trailer you can see her wearing a pink outfit at the reaping and also these nails:
It's a pink base with a golden gradient at the tip. This nails got me started with the whole Nail Art Series thing :) I'm sure once the movie comes out we will see more fun manicures :D
Here is my recreation of the look:

I used: Catrice - Big Spender Wanted! and sponged the gradient with P2 - Hyper. I think it's the perfect combination, because Catrice - BSW has golden shimmer in it and it kinda continues the gold at the tip.

I bumped my middle finger against the table, that's why there is this weird dent in it :P Sorry about that!
Since this is the first character inspired mani I want to know: who is your favorite character ? Besides Katniss, mine would be Finnick and Cinna. Finnick doesn't appear til book 2 though :)
Have a good night (or day) and see ya tomorrow! :)
I like this :-)

ReplyDeleteThanks! Me neither :D
DeleteThis is so pretty!! :D I haven't read the books so I don't know too much about the characters.
ReplyDeleteThanks :D Do you plan on reading them ? :)
DeleteVery nice. I never read any of these books, but I'm loving all of the hunger game inspired nails I've been seeing this week and these are no exception, great job.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I can only recommend you the books! They're awesome :)
DeleteThis is totally fun! I like it. Great choice of colors! They're both bright and eye catching and neither overshadows the other.
ReplyDeleteThank you! And I agree, they look really good together! :)
DeleteThis is fantastic! I love how nail polish is such a big part of the Hunger Games, I'm loving all these nail art posts!
ReplyDeleteYea me too! I was smiling when they mentioned Nail Art in the books :D
Deleteso fun! i la la love it :)
ReplyDeleteThank you!! ;)
Deleteniceee:D i like it:D
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous! Those two colours look like they belong together! :]
ReplyDeleteThat's what I thought too! :D
DeleteOh Wow! You replicated it perfectly! Love the colors :)
ReplyDeleteWow, thanks! Love the combination too ;)
Deletemy favorite (minor, very minor) character was Buttercup, the cat. I love the role she plays in the third book :)
ReplyDeleteI love Effie, too. One of my favorite parts of the movie was all her outfits. The wardrobe was insane!!
Love this mani :) Effie would too.
That's true, in the third book he's awesome :D But I imagined him a orange color, certainly not black&white :P
DeleteThe wardrobe is one of the best things in the movie :D
And thank you so much!! :)
Haven't tried sponging yet, but this is something I can see myself copying. I have BSW as well and will surely find a good gold for this.
ReplyDeleteIt's easy and you get the hang of it, after trying a few times ;)
