A Metallic Stars & Stripes Moment
@daily_charme delivered a stunning chrome masterpiece accented with stars and stones. The reflective finish adds a high-shine glam factor, while the celestial accents bring fireworks to your fingertips.
American as Apple Pie
@crystalxclaws combined fireworks, florals, and plaid—an unexpected yet totally charming trio that feels like a backyard BBQ, fireworks show, and summer picnic all in one design. Each detail adds texture and story to a perfectly balanced set.
All-American French Tips
@dreamynails1 went full-cover with a nude base and bold red-and-blue French tips. She topped it off with hand-painted stars and subtle striping for a refined take on Americana—elegant, crisp, and bold.
A Seriously Starry Set
@brittany_nailart also explored the French tip route but switched things up with a mix of stars across the nails. The neutral base makes the playful pops of patriotic color stand out without feeling overdone.
Nice and Nostalgic
@annaleebeauty wins the nostalgia prize with her adorable bomb pop popsicle nails and sweet cherry details. She used her red, white, and blue palette to evoke those sticky summer memories, all while flying mini American flags across a set that’s equal parts cute and clever.
