just made the fake blood recipe from this guide for my Halloween costume, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out! 🎃💉 The mixture was super easy to whip up, and it looked so realistic that my friends thought I’d actually had a mishap!
I used it for a zombie-themed party, and it completely transformed my costume. Not only did it add the perfect spooky touch, but it also sparked some great conversations throughout the night.
