Halloween is a fun time for children and adults to get all dressed up. If you want to scare people with your costume this year, there are many ways you can make yourself look extra spooky. Below are two of these ways to help you get started.

Colored Eyes

When people look at someone the first thing they will likely notice is their eyes. For this reason, you should start out by making your eyes look spooky. You can do this by purchasing some colored contact lenses. This can be beneficial if you currently wear glasses and have been considering getting contacts to replace them, as it would help you see how they would feel on your eyes.

If you do want contacts, visit your eye doctor to get regular contacts and then order a second pair of colored contacts along with them. There are a wide variety of colors you can choose.

Because you want to make your eyes look spooky, you could get white contacts and dress up like a zombie. Dress up like a vampire and choose completely black or red contacts to make you look even scarier. Red contacts with a black cape can make your eyes really stand out. These are just a few of the colors you could choose.

If you are interested in this, visit your eye doctor or an optometrist in your area. You can purchase prescription colored contacts, as well as non-prescription if you have good eyesight.

Monster Hands

Monster hands go great no matter if you are dressing up like a zombie, Dracula, or any other scary thing. There are latex-colored gloves that have long, colored nails on them. Choose a grey color to make your hands look dead along with nails that match your eyes.

Liquid latex can be used to make yourself look any way you want, including making your hands look wrinkly. Liquid latex can also be used to put open sores on your hands. If you do not want to do this yourself, some Halloween stores may have experienced makeup artists on staff to help customers with their costume makeup. While you are at it, add some wrinkles or bloody sores to your face as well.

These are just two ways you can make yourself look scary. Look online or visit costume stores for some ideas on great costumes you can purchase or make on your own.
