To turn actress
Elizabeth Banks into trend-setting character Effie Trinket for the hit film The Hunger Games, make-up department
head Ve Neill worked her magic all the way out to Banks’ fingertips. “Effie …
always wore hand-decorated false fingernails,” Neill said. “For this look, they
were lavender and white with tiny silver orbs and a decorative silver ornament
in the middle.”
