What Looks Can I Create Using A Facepaint Set And Costumes?

You can create many amazing looks using a facepaint set and costume combination. Here are some of our favourite ideas:

Children's Costume And Face Paint Ideas

• Lion - become a fierce (yet cuddly) lion using any of our adorable lion costumes combined with a lion face paint kit. Other big cats like tigers and cheetahs also make great costumes, but we love the extra fluffy mane of a lion costume!

• Clown - whether you want to be a funny or scary clown, our clown costumes and quality clown facepaint sets will help you achieve the look you want. Add a large wig to complete the outfit.

• Princess - make it magical with a combined princess dress and face paint costume. Not only do we have a fantastic range of classic and Disney princess costumes available, but you can add accessories like a princess wand or wings to really take it to the next level!

Adult Costume And Face Paint Ideas:

• Skeleton - this iconic Halloween look can be achieved with a full-body costume and a striking application of black and white skeleton face paint. Skeleton face paint also works well with other costumes - become a terrifying necromancer or undead sorcerer with the right outfit!

• Witch - whether you are going for the classic green or a more mottled, warty appearance, our witch face paint kits go perfectly with Spotlight's huge range of witch costumes. Use a broom or cauldron prop to elevate your outfit.

• Zombie - rip up some old clothes, perfect your shamble and become a zombie with some terrifying zombie face paint! Fake blood is great for adding to your outfit, and if you need some help creating a really gory look, check out our zombie face paint guide.
