Many people tend to pull out all the stops for Halloween every year, and each year we see people becoming more and more creative. There are hundreds of costume ideas, and it's a chance to show off your best makeup techniques too.
However, if you have to return to work or school the next day, it can sometimes mean remnants of last night's attire may be a little tricky to wash away fully as one woman knew all too well. Using a 'temporary' Halloween face tattoo, Elizabeth Rose was horrified when she realised the huge scary fake teeth and scar on her face weren't washing off.

She panicked when she realised she had meetings the following day (alliwanttodoismile/Tiktok)Sticking it across her mouth, she then filmed herself trying to remove the ghoulish design afterwards as she realised it wasn't budging. The 46-year-old who also put one on her seven-year-old granddaughter shared a video of her trying to remove it, and wrote alongside it: "Put a tattoo sticker on, join in a bit of Halloween, you know? Put some on my granddaughter as well, she's seven, and my daughter rings up going 'How does it come off?'."
"Well, it can't be that difficult, surely?" She asked as she picked up a cotton wool pad to try and attempt to scrub the sticker off. But it wasn't budging and Elizabeth stressed: "F**k sake, I have meetings tomorrow."
People were quick to offer solutions - as well as laughing at her ordeal - and many people suggested different remedies. One user commented: "The thought of you walking into the office like that has me rolling and I don't even know you!" While a second advised: "Honestly grab a roll of packing clear tape. Put it on smooth and it will peel right off!" However, one TikToker jibed: "You will get all your projects approved if you show up in the meeting like that.

Unbelievable Ms Rose filmed a second video after she stuck a second tattoo on her face to try out some of the removal options. She listed vodka, anti-bac gel, sellotape, olive oil and nail varnish remover as possible solutions. But she started with brown parcel tape, which she wrapped around her hand before patting onto her cheek. Amazingly, the sticker came out almost perfectly.
Ms Rose laughed: "What the f**k, shut the front door! Do you know what I don't think I can be bothered to try the nail varnish remover, anti-bac or olive oil. I might as well drink the vodka and be done with it."
