1. Body Glitter/shimmer 

The go-to for all girls who want to make their skin glow like a ghost on a moonlit Halloween night. A shimmery body oil or body glitter will give your skin a radiant finish and the best part is you can use it on your entire body. Our recommendation would be Charlotte Tilbury’s magic body cream which has a lightweight hydrating formula. So, if you want your legs to get that subtle shimmer in a cute Halloween dress, this one is worth trying. 

And the best part is, it has a delicious vanilla scent that feels like a sweet treat! 

2. Witchy Hair Accessories

When it comes to hair, the girls get experimental around Halloween, but do we really need to if a simple hair accessory can turn your look around? Be it a Medusa serpent headband or a regular pair of devil’s horns, s spooky hair accessory can even transform your casual Halloween look without going full costume. They’ll keep your hair in check while adding a fun, festive vibe!

3. Creepy but Cute Nail Extensions/Stickers

Who doesn’t love a mani with a spooky twist? Even if you don’t like dressing up, Halloween nails are the perfect middle ground to show some spirit and feel included. The Internet girls are going gaga over 3D nail designs that don’t look over the top, but serve its purpose fully. From black widow-inspired spider webs to a simpler French manicure with ghost faces, these extensions come in various designs and are perfect for adding that festive touch to your nails.

4. Face and Body Paint Palette 

Anyone who tells you that Halloween is just about the costume has no idea what they are talking about, because the best Halloween looks are created using face paint. In case you forgot to put together a costume, all you need is some face paint and an hour to create magic. There is a solid chance that you already have all the makeup you need to create a whimsical, spooky look, but don’t let that stop you from getting a Halloween palette that’ll have everything that stays on the face for hours. NYX has one such palette with bold colours that will impress without dressing up.

5. Lots of Highlighter

Nothing is over the top when it comes to the spirit of Halloween, and a nice highlighter can you make you stand out from the crowd. No matter who you’re dressed as and what character, your makeup is inspired by a gentle swoop around your cheekbones, nose and cupid’s bow will make you look dreamy and straight out of a fantasy world.

Pro Tip

Always follow the hair first, then makeup and last outfit rule (especially when it comes to painting your face for Halloween).
