Patriotic Nail Paint

Around the 4th of July, we like to let our red, white, & blue shine.  So, we painted out nails with our own version of stars (dots) and stripes!

You can start with a clear base coat if you would like.  I painted the fingers on each hand the same way...3 blue nails and 2 red ones.  For the red, I used OPI's Chick Flick Cherry on myself and used Big Apple Red on my daughter.  I painted every-other nail red and the other ones Sally Hansen's Co-Bolt Blue.  After the solid colors were painted, I used a white Sally Hansen nail art pen to make the stripes on red nails and dots (stars) on the blue ones.  A manicure always looks great with a top coat.  Plus, even better is a quick-drying one!  I like to use INM's Out The Door for that.  Of course, Seche Vite makes a top coat that one of my friends swears by.  Whatever products you like to use - have fun with your nail art!
