Whether you’re DIYing an ugly Christmas sweater or experimenting with spooky Halloween makeup looks, no festivity goes by without fanfare. That’s why it’s no surprise that this Fourth of July, we’re getting decked out in RWB gear, from our heads down to our mani.
That’s right — this year, we’re giving our digits the all-American treatment with patriotic nail art that shouts U-S-A! From star-spangled tips to omg-worthy firework nail wraps, these manis are perfect for any Independence Day activity. Need some patriotism in your life? Here are 15 Fourth of July manis you need on your digits for Independence Day weekend.
Two and Two
Mix up your nails by rocking solid colors on a couple of your fingers and patterns on the others. It's unsuspecting, but when your only colors are red, white, and blue, it isn't too much.
Fireworks
Let your mani shine bright by rocking these explosive nail wraps. Mix with an accented glitter nail, ’cause baby you’re a firework (sorry, we had to).
Tricks and Treats
Pay homage to both 4th of July staples like stars and glitter *and* everyone favorite summer treat, popsicles!
Wavy Baby
Keeping your nails festive with the red, white, and blue color combo makes them great for Independence Day, but picking a pattern that's classic makes them appropriate all summer long.
Stars and Stripes
Have a little fun by doing two completely different patterns on your hands. We love how this combo of stars and stripes mixes up the colors on each nail.
Festive Accents
We always love an accent nail, and what better time to rock one than the 4th of July? Paint the rest of your nails the same color, or alternate between red, white, and blue.
Flower Child
Not a huge fan of star motifs? Keep within the patriotic color palette but swap the usual patterns for flowers, gingham, and polka dots.
Mix and Match
Take your patriotism to the next level by saluting the troops with this cute AF mani. Use a small brush for a perfectly polished look that will have you #winning all weekend long.
Hearts
You owe it to your country to try these nails. This mani will look perfect with an LRD and luscious, fuss-free curls.
Vertical Stripes
Get girly with your American pride by using a top coat of glitter over your nails. Bling out your mani with star-shaped accents for an updated look on traditional Fourth of July nails.
Bold Stars
Forgo the stripes and paint all-American stars over your digits. Take it up a notch by swapping in a fire-engine red polish for an Insta-worthy design that’s impossible to ignore.
Double Stripes
Take a simple approach when it comes to your Fourth of July nails with this less-is-more style. Jazz it up with an accented firework nail that will outshine any Independence Day streamers.
Glitter
Bedazzle your American flag mani with multi-colored glittered nail polish. Opt for an LBD to let your swoon-worthy nails be the focal point of your weekend ensemble.
Minimalist
This starry mani is too cute to pass up. After you layer a nude coat, use two different glittered nail polishes for an extra-sparkly mani that’s sure to be a conversation starter.
Playfully Patriotic
Have fun with smiley faces, top hats, and your favorite picnic foods.
