A fake mustache is a go-to accessory for anyone trying to mimic facial hair they don't actually have. The off-beat adornment is perfect for costume parties, masquerades and Halloween celebrations. This fake mustache by Gasoline Glamour takes the classic accessory further with a design that is fit for [Fourth of July celebrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stars-stripes-sweetness-collection).

Patriotic and posh, the American Woman Mustache is a faux facial hair accessory that is comedic as well as glamorous. Like most false mustaches, the piece features a standard facial hair design that is accented with false black hair.

Making this fake mustache a true American accessory are its assorted [Swarovski crystals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eye-bijoux) -- displayed in red, white and blue hues. The crystals are embedded across the mustache in no particular order, making the accessory silly yet utterly stylish.
