Halloween Temporary Tattoo: An A4 Sheet, Not a Costume Line
October 9, 2026 · Digest by YueFetch
A Halloween temporary tattoo here is one A4 sheet from Dongguan. It is a costume extra. It is not a needle, and it is not a medical device.
On 22 September 2026 the National Retail Federation said US Halloween spending is expected to reach $13.5 billion, against last year's record of $13.1 billion. The NRF release puts costumes at $4.4 billion, with 71 percent of shoppers expected to spend on them. Dressing in costume is one of the ways people mark the day, at 50 percent. The average expected spend is $115.14 a person, close to $114.45 in 2025. NRF asked 7,889 consumers from 1 to 9 September. The margin of error is plus or minus 1.1 percentage points.
That release is about US Halloween shopping. It is not a listing of this sheet. I am not going to treat $13.5 billion as a forecast for one piece of paper.
The sheet on the shelf
The listed piece is a D/W/S Halloween temporary tattoo sheet, 210×297mm, USD 10.99. 210×297mm is A4. Cut the motifs apart before you apply them. It is wet-transfer, made in Dongguan (Houjie): peel the clear film, press on clean dry skin, wet the paper backing thoroughly, wait 10–20 seconds, then slide the backing off.
If the costume needs a mark you can see after the lights drop, the smaller cousin is the glow-in-the-dark YXA sheet, 60×105mm, USD 10.99. Apply it with water, the way a standard temporary tattoo goes on. Charge it under a bright light. The glow is most visible in low light. A face strip, if that is the look, is the CLT color face temporary tattoo, 47×156mm, USD 10.99. The page calls it festival and party face art. Same price, same Dongguan origin, same wet-transfer steps.
Waterless press-on sheets, and the rest of the aisle, are in temporary tattoo stickers. The category page is temporary tattoo stickers from Dongguan.
A cart, not a costume invoice
Tattoo-only carts ship from USD 69. Free international freight to the US, Canada, the UK, Germany, or Japan starts once a tattoo-only order reaches USD 69. One sheet at $10.99 does not get there. Six of them are $65.94 and still miss. Seven are $76.93 and clear it. The rule is the dollar line. I did not invent a sheet-count minimum on top of it.
If the destination is not one of those five countries, freight is quoted after the carton is weighed. Duty, if your country charges it, is yours. The product page lists a shipping window of 7–15 business days. I buy and check these in Dongguan. YueFetch is registered in Hong Kong. A freight forwarder in Huizhou or Shenzhen exports and sends tracking.
A size or a design that is not listed is Custom Source. If I take it, the quote is three lines: the product, international shipping after weigh-in, and the service fee. On business days that is usually within 24 hours. Hours are Monday to Saturday, 9:00 to 21:00 GMT+8. You pay before I buy. PayPal to hello@yuefetch.com, a Payoneer Request a Payment, or a card. WhatsApp is +86 134 2285 5855. I may also decline. A listed Halloween sheet does not need the form.
The limit
A Halloween spending figure does not change this sheet. It is a fashion temporary tattoo. Not permanent ink. Not a medical device.
