July 4th Beauty

I can’t believe 2015 is already half way through, and that means July 4th is right around the corner! I have compiled a list of this year’s best red, white, and blue beauty products that will have you looking fabulous (and patriotic!) this holiday weekend.

The Essentials

1. Salon Grafix High Beams Collection ($4.99): This temporary spray-on hair color is the perfect way to make a bold statement without the commitment. There are 22 awesome shades available, but all you’ll need to show your patriotism is the “Rockstar Red”, “Silver”, and “Bangin’ Blue”. My personal favorite is the blue, and I will definitely be packing this one in my bag for the 4th of July weekend.
2. NYC New York Color 24 HR Waterproof Eye Shadow ($2.99): These retractable eyeshadow sticks are pigment-packed with 24-hour waterproof wear. They can be used as liners or smoky shadows if you smudge them. Pictured shades include: “East River Romance” and “Rockefeller Center Snowflakes”.
3. Dior ‘Diorshow’ Waterproof Mascara in “Azure Blue” ($25.00): This bright, electric blue mascara is ultra-glamorous and is the perfect way to incorporate one of the three American colors into your makeup regime. This July 4th staple is also waterproof, making it a double threat!
4. NYC New York Color HD Automatic Eyeliner in “Navy Blue”: These intense automatic liners are packed with high definition color and come in a variety of shades – but I recommend “Navy Blue” for the 4th! Added bonus for being waterproof!
5. Make Up For Ever Glitter in “Silver 2” ($15.00): July 4th isn’t just about the red, white, and blue but the sparkle and fireworks as well! I personally love the Make Up For Ever Glitter, as it can be worn as eyeshadow or just body glitter in general. They come in a variety of colors, including silver, gold, pink, sand, white, and many more.
6. Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Nail Polish ($4.99): I am a huge fan of the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri collection as they offer super trendy colors and if you couldn’t have guessed from their name, dry instantly! Pictured shades include: “Tag, Ur It!”, “Vandal Eyes” and “Quick Brick”.
7. OCC Lip Tar in “RX” ($18.00): If you want to be really bold this 4th of July, pick up OCC’s Lip Tar in “RX”, which is a true cyan blue. This shade is also a matte finish, so no blotting necessary!
8. NYC New York Color Expert Last Lip Color-MATTE in “Red Suede” ($1.99): This satin matte lip color is the perfect shade of red. The color wears up to 6 hours and does not feather or bleed.
