Easy (and Cheap!) Last Minute Halloween Ideas

There was a time when the only Halloween costume anybody needed was a good old bin bag. Go back to basics with the simplest, cheapest costume of them all!

From vampires and batman, to the classic witch look… you can be assured a simple bin bag just can’t be beaten for a quick last-minute costume!

TIP! Having last minute guests for Halloween? Cover a balloon with a white bin liner, draw on eyes and a mouth with a black marker to create a quick ghost!

If you want to dress up but don’t have a costume, you can nail an impressive look with just eyeshadow, liner and some lashes (and a steady hand)!

Simply:

• Start with Profusion Spectrum Palette and cover your eyelid and crease with an orange base.
• With a steady hand apply liquid eyeliner from the inner corner to the outer corner of your top lash line. For a more dramatic look repeat with a khol liner on your water line.
• To create the spider web add a line along your crease and two lines slightly above it
• Add curved vertical lines, like you were drawing eyelashes to complete the web!

TIP: Before you tackle the web you can always draw dots in eyeliner where you want the lines to cross over. Then you can have fun playing connect the dots on your eyelids!

• Add some sparkle to your inner corner with some glitter or shimmery eyeshadow to complete your ghoulishly gorgeous look!

Want a shocking hair-do guaranteed to cause a scream? Dry shampoo and hairspray will be your best friends!

• Give your hair a generous spray of dry shampoo to prime it with volume before the craziness begins!
• Get a brush and back-comb your hair all over, making sure you hairspray each section as you go.

OPTIONAL: At this point you can add some hair glitter onto your roots for an extra stylish look!

• Once you have the desired height and frizz, give your hair an extra spritz of hairspray all over. You can never have too much hairspray!
• Spray dry shampoo over the top of your head and through the lengths. DO NOT rub it in! Let the white colour give you ghostly locks!

TIP: If the dry shampoo isn’t BOO! enough for you, get some talcum powder and give it a healthy shake over your head. Maybe do this in the bath or over a bin bag!

Whether it is to add to an already spooktacular costume or just to get into the spirit of Halloween, nail polish is a must! A coat of Rimmel 60 Secs Rita Shades Of Black Nail Polish will have you feeling scary and sexy! Drying in just 60 seconds this can be done at THE last minute, it’s frighteningly simple!
