How to look orange

RandolphEsq

For a Halloween costume I wish to go as a guido so part of the look is to be orange. What product would I be recommended to use so I would look orange, and how would I use it?

Haha going as a guido...I love it! Do you want to look like you have a dark orangey tan or do you want to just look really really extreme orange to play up to it? What I could suggest would be to get a dark bottle of the Sally Hansen airbrush legs and get someone to put a really thick coat on you, if you went down the fake tan route it will take days to come off! If you want a really extreme look don't body builders use some kind of orangey bronzey body paint for competitions?

Thanks for the help! I want to be exaggerated orange like as if I did fake tan very poorly. Oh and it is important that it comes off easily because I don't want to be stuck as a guido!

Why don't you use orange face paint? That washes right off. Would that be too orange?

Something like this would be ideal.


But if you can't find that then this would also do

Although you may need more than one pack.

You should be able to find face paint in any good joke/costume shop and as Halloween gets closer you'll probably even see it in Tesco. Although orange might be a bit harder to find. That second pack above I saw online for 3.99.


Good luck with the costume.

Ed Hardy is the epitome of tack. Bonus points if you buy it too small and you flex your muscles! :P

Sally Hansen Airbrush for legs will really make you perfect the guido look. Especially if you trowel it on.

I went with the Sally Hansen, lashed it on. It was perfect! I was completely over the top!
