Halloween is approaching and you still don't have a costume? Don't panic: with a good mask and two or three accessories, you can create a successful costume without spending hours sewing. Here are our simple and quick ideas, for both adults and children.
The mask: the foundation of a successful costume
A mask does 80% of the work. Add clothes you already have in your closet and the character is immediately recognizable.
- The Squid Game guard: a Squid Game mask, a red (or pink) jumpsuit or hoodie and black gloves. Simple, recognizable and perfect for a group of friends.
- V for Vendetta: the V for Vendetta mask with a long black coat and a hat. An elegant classic that works every time.
- The possessed demon: the horror mask inspired by The Exorcist with an old white nightgown. Guaranteed effect at a party.
- The long-haired ghost: the horror mask with long hair and a white dress or sheet. Ideal for startling your guests.
The finishing touches that make the difference
For those who prefer not to wear a mask all evening, Halloween temporary tattoos are the solution: skulls, scars, spiderwebs… They are applied in a few seconds, last all evening and are easily removed. Also perfect for completing children's costumes.
For children: the candy hunt
On Halloween night, children often walk around when it is already dark. The LED Halloween candy bag has a double advantage: it is fun and makes children more visible on the street.
A few safety tips for the candy run:
- Prefer makeup or tattoos to a mask for the little ones: a mask reduces the field of vision.
- Add a light-up or reflective element to the costume.
- Accompany young children and set a route in advance.
Organizing a Halloween party at home
No need for a big budget to create the atmosphere:
- Turn off the ceiling lights and use a rotating LED magic ball for colorful light shows.
- Plan a best costume contest.
- Keep a deck of cards like UNO handy for the end of the evening.
