Hook And Line - China Glaze






This polish is from China Glaze's Hunger Games collection (I bought mine from Nail Polish Direct), and deals with District 4 which is best known for its fishing industry, and it's victors Finnick and Mags.

This is a lovely mercurial silver, a colour that I think is brilliant for December/ January when it's frosty. The polish goes on really well and there was hardly any problems with the dreaded right hand.

The 1st coat goes a tiny bit streaky and three coats seems best as will all metallics they just need that extra coat to make it fully opaque.

I really did like this polish and will wear it again when the next Hunger Games movie comes out.

Thanks for tuning in

Catherine Wheel - Models Own


This is another edition from the Models Own Fireworks range, in the picture I have this over the top of Smoke and Ashes from China Glaze.

I matched these two together for the release of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (I was originally going to use Electrify by China Glaze but couldn't get a hold of it)

This is a lovely glitter polish, this glitter comes out in strands and specs of red and yellow, I was surprised with how much actually came out onto the nail, I only had to go back over 1 or 2 again to get a good covering of glitter.

This is a polish that you will be seeing again come November or The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1.

Thanks for tuning in

Smoke and Ashes - China Glaze


November saw the release of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, I loved the books and I loved the first movie so to celebrate the release of Catching Fire I bought a bottle of Smoke and Ashes from China Glaze's Hunger Games Collection.

This is a black colour with a subtle green shimmer running through the polish, the polish went onto the nail really easily and was highly pigmented, only one coat and it was opaque, I used 2 coats in the above picture.

Overall a great nail polish, and one that will be coming out again for the next two Hunger Games movies.

Thanks for tuning in
