Today I have my 4th of July Nails. I had a short amount of time, so I needed simple and fast. I currently have house guests staying with me since last week, and they will be staying until next week, so I couldn't do anything too time consuming. At lot of us have busy schedules around this time of year, so if you are looking for something fast...this is the perfect manicure.
I started with Zoya Polishes:
(Left to Right: Chyna (Pixie Dust), Purity, and Liberty (Pixie Dust).
I then topped it off with one of my top favorite Indie Polishes - Rainbow Polish -Shooting Star.
This is a fund raising polish where 50% of the proceeds are donated to
various charities. It is still available on ETSY and retails for $10 USD
- click HERE for details.
I usually use tape to do strips, but for this one I just free-handed it. I figured it would be tough to get smooth lines with the Pixie Dust Texture. I never free handed lines before, so for my first try - not too bad.
I love the silver stars and bars in Shooting Star. It's the perfect topper for a 4th a July themed polish. I ended up loving the effects over the Zoya Pixie Dust, the sparkle is off the chain (lol).
I hope everyone has a SAFE and Happy Fourth of July.

I'm absolutely loving this look! The striped nail is my favorite; you definitely put work in placing the stars on that one. And thanks for sharing a nail polish that actually gives back! Too awesome; this could potentially make me feel better about spending so much money on polishes... haha! :)
