21 Temporary Tattoos You Can Wear as a Halloween Costume
Your Halloween costume probably includes a mask, wig or face paint. But there’s one form of disguise that often gets overlooked: temporary tattoos! They’re much simpler than intricate face painting, and they’re smudge proof! We’ve found some of the best temp tats to enhance your costume this year.
