Independence Day is just around the corner, and what better way to show your patriotic spirit than with a festive manicure? In this blog post, we will show you 40 different 4th of July nail ideas. From stars and stripes to red, white, and blue nails, we have something for everyone!
How to Get Patriotic Nails for the Fourth of July
One popular design is to paint your nails with a base of white polish. Then, use a thin brush to add blue stripes near the tips of your nails. Finally, add a dot of red polish in the center of each stripe. This design is simple yet effective and can be easily created at home.
Another idea is to start with a red basecoat. Once that has dried, use a star-shaped stencil to add white stars all over your nails. For an extra touch of patriotism, you can also add a blue stripe or two.
If you want something a bit more subtle, try painting your nails with a nude polish. Then, use a small brush to paint thin stripes of red and blue on each nail. This design is perfect for those who don’t want their nails to be too overwhelming.
Below, you’ll find different ideas for patriotic manicures that are perfect for the Fourth of July. Which one will you be trying? Let us know!
Glitter, Stars & Sparkles
If you love glitter, this manicure is perfect for you. You can start with a white basecoat and then add red and blue glitter all over your nails. You can also add some star-shaped sequins for an extra touch of patriotism. The key is to use a topcoat so that the glitter doesn’t fall off throughout the day. One more tip- use a toothpick to apply the glitter so that you don’t have to dip your fingers in it. We recommend silver, red and blue glitter for this look, as it looks the most like fireworks!

Colors can be as bright or as subdued as you want them to be. To add a little extra something, you can paint a blue square in the corner with white stars. This manicure is perfect for those who want to show their patriotism without being too over-the-top. For the stars, you can use a toothpick to place them on your nails or you can buy star-shaped sequins.
