Nail Designs For the 4th of July
White Nails with Sparklers
Stand out from the crowd with this fresh take. Start with a pure white base that’s perfect for summer weather. Then with glitter polish or stickers, add a spark of fun. The details are up to you whether you want to draw gold or silver sparklers or simply place sparkly accents.
Pro tip: liner gel comes with a thin brush for precise lines. Plus, it comes in a wide range of shades and won’t dry until it’s cured in a nail lamp. It’s the perfect tool for the nail artist who loves to draw.

Whimsical Swirls and Twirls
Did you know that you can water marble nails with nail lacquer at home? And if you use blooming gel, it’s easy to get a similar effect with gel polish. Both methods make for swirly and psychedelic red, white, and blue nails.
Old Glory
Go chic with a distressed, tricolor tie-dye pattern with silver or gold foil accents.
Cold Sweet Treats
Chrome drip nails are trending and so are translucent jelly nails. Get inspired by these styles and create dripping ice cream cones or melting popsicle flags on your fingertips.

Is It Okay to Display the Us Flag on Your Nails?
Now that’s a tricky question. The US flag itself should never be worn as clothing. It’s also not okay to put the flag upside down unless it’s to signal distress or danger.
However, it's perfectly fine to use red white, and blue designs on your nails.
If you want to read the rules regarding how to treat and display the American flag, the Department of Defense has an illustrated explanation.
