Glitter Hair Products for Your Celestial-Themed Halloween Costume

When it comes to Halloween, we don't think it's possible to go too far. In fact, the bigger the better. We love costumes that incorporate loud patterns, bright colors, crazy makeup, and (yes, you guessed it) lots and lots of glitter. It's the one night each year—aside from maybe New Year's Eve—where we can go crazy with color and texture and shine, so why not take advantage of it with our beauty choices?

Lime Crime Unicorn Hair Color Spray

If the promise of having unicorn hair isn't enough to make you immediately run to the store for this product, then you'll most certainly be a believer after just one use. Tiny flecks of shimmer and glitter give a radiant finish to hair that looks sheen enough as it is chic. After all, who doesn't want their mane full of twinkling sparkle?

IGK Pre-Party Sprinkle

This IGK spray doesn't provide hold like a regular hairspray would, but it does provide a little bit of texture and lots of shine with fine glitter pieces. Spritz a little onto your strands for a subtle look or layer it for a more bold, eye-catching sparkle.

Jerome Russell Gold/Silver Glitter Spray

Jerome Russell's gold and silver glitter hairspray is an ideal combo of both colors. That's why you're likely to have seen it in the hands and hair of people attending various outdoor music festivals and concerts. It works equally well for Halloween purposes—just be sure to shake the bottle before spritzing, as the glitter has a habit of collecting towards the bottom of the can.

Unicorn Snot Glitter Gel

Yes, there's a beauty product actually named Unicorn Snot, and here it is in all its glory. Super reflective pieces of chunky glitter are suspended in a gel formula that you can smooth onto your skin or hair for a standout look.

Ruth Paul Skin Unicorn Sparkles Glitter Gel

This little bottle of holographic blue glitter can be used as a decorative gel on hair or skin. It's infused with moisturizing aloe vera and peppermint essential oil for a refreshing scent.

Eva NYC Kween Glitter Spray

Who says you have to sacrifice hair health in the name of a stellar costume? Eva NYC's Kween Glitter Spray is infused with anti-breakage ingredients Keravis (a hair-strengthening protein complex) and argan oil. And thanks to the fine, subtle nature of the glitter, you can use it after Halloween to add some sparkle to your holiday party looks, too.

Verb Ghost Dry Oil Disco Edition

The moringa oil blend in this spray conditions hair and adds some shine—in terms of both hair health and literal shimmer. Another subtle option, this sparkly silver dry oil mist is the perfect finishing touch to any Studio 54-inspired costume.

ColourPop Glitter Gel

Going for something extraterrestrial? Dab a bit of ColourPop's Glitter Gel in Avenue of the Stars onto your hairline to frame your makeup look.

Cai Beauty NYC All That Glitters

Fans of this chunky glitter gel sing its praises for festivals, dance parties, and of course, costumes. You get 3 oz. of products with this one, making it perfect for glitter-all-over get-ups.

Projekt Glitter Fine Glitter

If you're feeling crafty, you can always make your own glitter hair gel. Just sprinkle loose glitter (we're big fans of Projekt Glitter's biodegradable offerings) into a mixing bowl with a few dollops of your favorite hair gel, and get to styling.
