Julep has an ad that says if you stock up on any 4th of July colors (such as America the Beautiful for example), you can then add Fireworks and type in “FIREWORKS” in the promo code and get it for free!

Sephora by Opi: Three Way Mirror Swatch & Review
Swatch Gallery My Review Three Way Mirror is a tawny pink brown and a gorgeous office appropriate color.

This is a nice shade to wear to prom and clubs as it is on the classy side. Sephora by Opi describes itself as...
