Zero Dollar Halloween

Are the Halloween posts getting obnoxious yet? Hopefully not because I have ANOTHER fun look to show you!

If you’ve been following along in my saga of WHAT THE HECK do we wear for Halloween(?!?), you’ll know that we are trying NOT to spend money on costume stuff this year. It’s SO HARD, y’all! So hard. And let me just say…thank goodness for friends!!! I’ve had so many wonderful mamas lend me their stuff so that I can piece things together and get creative!!

This look is courtesy of the one-size too big hand-me-down pajamas from big brother and a two-size too small dress from a girlfriend. I’m not gonna lie, friend! I felt like a stuffed sausage casing, but thanks to a very well-loved pair of Spanx and a long cardigan to hide some side lumps (just being real here, y’all) I think I just MIGHT have pulled it off! (If you disagree, you can just keep that opinion to yourself though…mkay?)

And then for the REALLY fun part — the makeup!

I’ll share with you what I used, but if you want a step-by-step guide…you gotta know that I followed this YouTube video by the amazing Katie Enos almost to a T! So you should most definitely check that out.

/ SKIN /
3-in-1 Cleanser in Normal to Dry, Climate Control, SeneSerum-C, Daytime Moisturizer in Normal to Dry, EyeLuminator, Silk
