Feminine Fall Look

This tutorial is inspired by the Feminine Palette from Urban Decay. Go to urdbandecay.com to get this palette for only $16.00


This is the second tutorial in a series of three tutorials using the Feminine Palette from Urban Decay. The first video was an everyday look; much more subtle and classic. This look is more catty and more dramatic. It reminds me a lot of Ursula from the Little Mermaid, because of the colors. It's kind of a villainy look, but at the same time it is not so bold that you couldn't wear it everyday if you wanted to. Which means this makeup could be worn on a night out or if you are going to an event or on a date. If you are someone who likes to wear dramatic looks everyday, this is a wonderful everyday look, but it definitely has more fall-time colors. It's very dark. Not really much of a summer look.

How to get the "Hunger Games: Catching Fire" nail look I'm wearing in this video. (Fiery Ombre Nails)

 
You will need; a nail polish base (mine is from China Glaze), a bright red nail polish, a bright orange nail polish (China Glaze "Riveting"), a gold glitter nail polish (China Glaze "Electrify"), a cosmetics sponge, some kind of palette (I just used cardboard.), and a top coat.
 
Step 1: Base Coat
Step 2: Paint your nails either red or orange, whichever color you want to be more prominent. I painted my undercoat orange, because the red I used was a bit darker than the orange and I wasn't sure if the orange would show up on top of it. Let dry.
(You are going to have to work fast with these next few steps to prevent the polish from drying on the sponge or the palette before you get it on your nail.)
Step 3: Paint two lines, one on top of the other, the width of your nail, onto your palette. Don't be afraid to make paint it thick.
Step 4: Use the sponge as a stamp. Press it lightly onto the polish on your palette, then stamp the polish onto your fingernail. Press firmly (this is why it is so important the first two layers of polish on your nails is dry first. You may have to stamp twice to get the brightness you need. Always stamp the same direction. I stamped the two colors so that the pure red would be at the tips and the pure orange color would be at the cuticles.
Step 5: Paint on the glitter. Thicker at the cuticle to get the effect of fire. I prefer the China Glaze polish in "Electrify" from the Hunger Games collection, because it has red and gold glitter in it. I think you can still purchase this collection on Cherry Culture.
Step 6: Top coat.
