It’s already October, which means Halloween is right around the corner. Have you picked out your costume yet? Trick-or-treaters in Japan were treated to some extra inspiration by Daiso, a discount store where everything is 100 yen (US$1), in the form of an impressive variety of Halloween lashes featuring cobwebs, haunted houses, and swirly stars. Early wearers of these accessories have been praising them for their high quality (but really, would you expect any less from Daiso?). Let’s take a closer look at these outrageous falsies!
Fashion-conscious Halloween fans in Japan have been flocking to Daiso to snap up the inexpensive accessories, and of course, everything lands up on Twitter, so we’ve been treated to up-close views of each product:
▼ There are two styles: Long, colorful lashes and black Halloween-shaped ones.
