Cover Cosmetics: Catching Fire - Suzanne Collins

As I'm writing this, I just got back from the premiere of Catching Fire. This movie was seriously incredible. Of course, they had to cut things from the book, but I think they made good choices about what to keep and how to incorporate things they cut in a different way. Also, the costumes and makeup are so stunning. As a costume design major and makeup enthusiast, I was absolutely in heaven looking at all the costumes and makeup. A+mazing job, Trish Summerville. I want to be you when I grow up.

Anyway, I thought I'd share the makeup I did for the premiere! This one isn't inspired very much by the book cover - I was inspired mostly by Katniss as "The Girl on Fire" from the first movie and just fire in general.

The cover:

The makeup:

Anyway, I highly recommend going to see Catching Fire! I was fangirling so hard the entire time. They kept so many of the best lines and moments. They might seem random and insignificant to those who haven't read the books, but I think they definitely kept the fandom in mind when choosing what to include. I just loved it!

Happy Hunger Games! May the odds be ever in your favor.
