Beautypress had a feature on Patriotic Makeup Looks for 4th of July incorporating red, white, and blue.

Patriotic makeup – from beautypress.com

Get the look:

  • Red – Wear a cherry red stain. it “would guarantee the light and airy feel you love, with the lasting power you desire!” 
  • White – Apply white eye shadow to your inner corner.  “It instantly brightens your entire eye up and gives you that wide awaken look!”  Apply a neutral skin tone color to the entire lid.  
  • Blue – Apply a blue eyeliner to your upper and/or lower lash line. “It can really make your eye color pop and make the whites in your eye look whiter!”

Merle Norman likes to trumpet its “Made in the USA” credentials. OPI created its Americana nail set to celebrate Merle Norman’s heritage. It features red, white and blue mini OPI Nail Lacquers. The Americana nail set features:

  • Hussy – a ravishing red polish. No, it’s not named for a brazen woman who’s got her mitts on your man (and believe me, I’ve had to deal with one), it’s named for a classic car. 
  • Alpine Snow
  • Yoga-ta Get this Blue! 
  • RapiDry Top Coat

And once again, my apologies for the lousy picture quality, but it’s the best I could find. 😦

If you want to support Obama’s presidential campaign, you could create a patriotic theme using the nail polish set that Richard Blanch of Le Métier de Beauté created for the Obama campaign’s Runway to Win.

  • Victory White – “A soft, clean white perfectly polished for every day wear.” 
  • Bo Blue – “A shimmering sapphire blue, a fun take on the classic navy.”
