4TH OF JULY MAKEUP IDEAS
1. RED SHADOW WITH STARS
Create a beautiful yet simple 4th of July look with this makeup idea. Brush on some red eyeshadow first onto your lid. You can be as subtle or dramatic with this as you’d like.
Then add some glitter and a few star stickers to complete the look.
2. RED WING SHADOW
I am a sucker for eyeshadow liner. There is just something so beautiful and “simple” about it. For the 4th of July, you’ll want to use the color red.
I suggest you use a piece of tape or some eye patches to create a sharp look.
3. RED SHADOW WITH BLUE GLITTER
This eyeshadow look has all of the colors of the holiday. Red, white, and blue! What more could you want? For this look, you’ll want to use a very natural shade or a subtle white color on your lid.
Use a red eyeshadow to blend the two together and add some blue on your bottom lash line. Go the extra mile and include some star stickers.
4. FIREWORKS LINER
How stunning is this look? I am beyond obsessed. Brush on a deep blue eyeshadow all over your eyelid and take some up to your crease as well.
Add red eyeshadow on your bottom lash line and finish it off by using white eyeliner to create “fireworks” on the outer part of your eye.
5. BLUE EYESHADOW WITH FIREWORKS
Don’t want the same old blue eyeshadow look for this year’s 4th of July? No problem! Brush on a shade of blue eyeshadow first and top off with some glitter.
If you want to make it look bolder, use black eyeliner on your waterline and really close to your lash line on the top.
Now, put your artistic skills to work and create the most stunning fireworks on the outer part of your eye.
6. GLITTERY EYEBROWS
Show some love to your eyebrows for the 4th of July, too, and make it glittery. I absolutely love the look of this! You will for sure be breaking a few necks with this makeup look, haha!
7. DARK BLUE SHADOW WITH RED
Make it simple but not really, haha! Grab a dark blue shade of your eyeshadow and sweep it across the lid. Grab the red and add some on your lower lash line.
Finally, finish it off by either drawing white stars or adding star stickers.
8. STARS GALORE
It is THE 4th of July, embrace all of the stars and glitter for this holiday.
Create the most beautiful eye look ever by using red and blue eyeshadow, adding glitter, and finishing it off by going ham with the stars.
9. GOLD GLITTER AND AMERICAN FLAG
How insanely stunning is this makeup look? You’ll want to first use gold glittery shadow all over your eyelids.
Then use red on the lash line and blend it towards the outer part of your eye using a blue shade. Repeat the same process for the crease and add some cute white stars.
10. SUPER SIMPLE LOOK
If you want to show a little festive spirit but don’t want to go overboard with the colors and designs, this is the one for you.
Simply use a natural shade for your eyelids and use a blue shade for your lower lashline.
You can stop here, or if you want, you can add red, white, and blue rhinestones on your high cheekbones to complete the look.
11. FIREWORKS GLAM
This may just be my favorite 4th of July makeup look on this list! The blue cut-crease and the glitter are absolutely gorgeous.
But my absolute favorite part is the fireworks happening on the cheeks. They look incredible. Plus, the little butterflies flying about are a great addition as well.
12. BEAUITFUL RED AND BLUE
Red and blue are two of the main 4th of July colors, so obviously we need to incorporate them into the look.
I suggest you first start with a red eyeshadow from the inner corner, use a white shade in the middle, and use a blue eyeshadow on the outer part of the eye.
Top it off by blending the colors together and with some glitter.
13. PATRIOTIC MAKEUP LOOK
Here is another stunning 4th of July makeup look that anyone can recreate.
With this one, you’ll want to start with a blue shade on the inner corner, use a white in the middle, and finish it off with a red shade on the outer part.
Make it bolder by adding a black wing liner. Bring the makeup look together with a bold red lip, and you’re set!
14. GLITTERY COMBO AND STARS
The 4th of July is a time for all things red, white, and blue. So, don’t be shy and create a bold eyeshadow look with those colors.
Start off with a blue shade on the inner corner, white in the middle, and red on the outer. Blend them really well together so no harsh lines appear.
Buff it out a little towards the crease as well. Finally, finish it off with some glitter on top because you can never have too much.
15. EASY BLUE EYESHADOW
If you don’t want to use all three shades on your eyelid, stick with one. Grab your favorite blue shade and sweep it across the lid.
Blend it out really well and bring out a little. Add a bold wing liner and use a red shade on the lower lash line. Complete the look by incorporating some patriotic stickers on your cheeks.
16. CREATIVE FLAG MAKEUP
I am a beginner makeup girly and can barely do a one-shadow look, haha! But if you are skilled or have the patience, you should definitely give this a go. It looks so realistic and is so detailed!
Ugh, I can’t get enough. Plus, that lip combo is perfection!
17. DOTTED EYE MAKEUP
If you are a beginner and want something that isn’t too hard to recreate, this is the one for you! Grab bottles of red, white, and blue eye paint and a dotting tool.
Then, just start dotting away and create a similar wing shape like in the picture.
18. BLUE CUT CREASE AND RED WING
How amazing does this look? I love the blue cut-crease, the glittery shadow all across the lid, and the most perfect red winged eyeshadow I have ever seen.
An eyeshadow look like this calls for bold, dramatic false lashes.
19. CREATIVE 4TH OF JULY MAKEUP
I will bow down to whoever recreates this look. You would have to be beyond talented! I mean the attention to detail on this is just *chef’s kiss*.
Even the lips are amazing, and the red false lashes are just the perfect addition. You will not stop getting compliments on this.
20. STRIPES AND FRIEWORKS
You cannot tell me this doesn’t look out-of-this-world fantastic. How are people so talented? The blue on the inner corner and the red on the outer are amazing.
Blend some of that red into the crease and add white stripes on the outer. Finish it off by drawing gorgeous fireworks above your crease.
21. PATRIOTIC STARS
Keep it simple and classy with this makeup look. First, create your desired eye look. You can go all out with the colors or keep it natural.
Then, for the fun part, draw on some patriotic stars using red, white, and blue face paint.
22. RED AND BLUE EYE LOOK
I am in love with this makeup look! Make each a different color for this 4th of July eye makeup. Use red and blue eyeshadow on each eye.
Bend it well and extend a little bit on the outer part to create a winged look. Create some dainty stars with white eye paint and finish the look with a bold red lip.
23. RED AND BLUE CUT CREASE
This is kind of similar to the one above, except this is a cut crease look. You’ll want to start off with a nude base and add your colors to the crease. Blend them in really well to avoid harsh lines.
Then, grab your glittery shade and pat it all across the lid. Go the extra mile and incorporate a few small star stickers.
24. PATRIOTIC LINER
How cute is this makeup? If you want something festive without going overboard, this is the one for you! Buy red, white, and blue eye gel liners.
Use them to create beautiful stars and a sharp eyeliner. You can also add a few rhinestones if you want to be extra!
25. STArS AND BLuE SHADOW
Ok, I know I already said another one was my favorite, but I change my answer to this! It is absolute perfection.
If there were a contest being held for the best 4th of July makeup, I’m pretty sure this look would win the award.
26. COLORFUL EYE LOOK
Since the 4th of July is held during the summertime, go all out with the bright colors. Use red, blue, orange, yellow, and literally any other color you like.
Bring the blue and red down to your lower lashline and finish it by adding some stars.
27. THE AMERICAN FLAG
How fun is this look? I am loving the red lines and the blue eyeshadow with the stars. Plus, that little heart on the nose is gorgeous. Wear a red outfit to match this makeup.
28. SIMPLE STAR
This one is for my natural girlies who like to keep it minimal. Do your daily makeup routine, and for a festive touch, add a cute blue star on the outer part of your eye.
29. STAR STICKERS
Here is another super simple and easy look anyone can do. It requires no makeup skills and is perfect if you don’t want to go all out. Just grab some star stickers and place them on your eye.
You can create a winged shape if you’d like or just place them wherever you feel like it.
30. RED AND BLUE SWIRLS
I love makeup looks where all you need to do is create swirls. It requires no effort and looks amazing. Use a red and blue gel liner to recreate this.
You can also add in a white gel liner to make it pop more!
