I recently took one of the big steps to becoming a beauty blogger by purchasing my first entire nail polish collection. The collection of choice? The new China Glaze 'Capitol Colours' collection, inspired by The Hunger Games!
I've been completely obsessed with The Hunger Games for about a year now. I read all three books in just over a week and I'm really excited for the film! (I'm going to an advanced screening with a friend which is hella exciting!)
For this look I decided to take inspiration from the book and create my own 'Girl on Fire' nails, inspired by the nail art that Katniss wears for her tribute interview before the Games. I managed to create this look with three polish's all from the 'Capitol Colours' collection - I used 'Smoke and Ashes' for the entire nail base coat, then I mapped out the shape of the flames with 'Riveting' then I added a bit of sparkle using 'Electrify'.
I love this nail art look, it's one of my favourites!
Hi, my name is Charlie! I like nail art, make-up, winter, buying new things, watching the Tudors and Glee and sparkly things. This blog will mainly be full of nail art and make-up designs of my own, along with swatches and reviews! Enjoy!

Galaxy Nails!
My second attempt at the famous galaxy nails and I think I may have been successful this time! I'm really happy with how they came out and these nails got a ton of compliments from people at college!
To get this look I used a base of American Aparrel 'Hassid' then sponged on two Nails Inc. colours, a mint green and bright pink, (I'll admit that I can't find the bottles so I don't know the names of them), and then finished off with two coats of a multi-sized glitter and then Seche Vite top coat!
What's your verdict on Galaxy nail? Love it or leave it?
