4 Outfits to Rent for Halloween
Wondering how to have a more sustainable Halloween? Here's our tips from renting your outfit to using non-toxic face paint.
New research by UK charity Hubbub and Fairyland Trust estimates that 2,000 tonnes of plastic waste, equivalent to 83 million plastic bottles, will be generated this Halloween from costumes alone. From polyester costumes worn once to plastic vampire teeth and trick or treat pumpkins, it's no secret that the spookiest day of the year has a sustainability problem.

For your make-up use natural face paints without nasties from Natural Earth Face Paint and if you're looking to glam up your look with glitter (especially recommended to spice up the good old skull face) make sure to get eco glitter and avoid the microplastics!
Upcycle and reuse any old hairbands, jewellery and accessories you already own (or borrow from a friend) - Pinterest is our favourite platform to browse for DIY ideas!
