The gang will look frightfully fabulous, and you can relax and enjoy the spookiest night of the year. Happy Halloween!
- Vampire. With the popularity of Twilight, vampires will be all the rage this year. This disguise can be simple-wear black clothing and add fake teeth, black lipstick, nail polish and eyeliner, with a touch of red blood, and a cape. Shopper's Drug Mart and Rexall PharmaPlus have all your make-up essentials.
- Ghost with a twist. An old favourite gets a new look! Make a ghost costume out of a bed sheet and dress it up. Add a wig, false eyelashes and lipstick for a Glamour Ghost; a tiara, jewellery and boa or a top hat and black jacket for a Rich Ghost; a hockey helmet and jersey for a Sports Ghost... you get the idea. Just use your imagination!
- Bunch of grapes. Blow up purple balloons to the same size and attach them all over a purple or green sweat suit with tape or small safety pins. A green hat covered with grape leaves completes the look.Read more...
