That's right, the CIA has decided to share a few secrets with us on what makes a disguise believable.

1. Start with the basics: Change you hair, height, clothing or age because these are the first things that people notice. Your appearance matters and just adding a ball cap and sunglasses can make all the difference.

2. Simple is better: Don't go over the top because then it will look face. Adding simple elements will look more natural.

3. Dual-purpose: When buying clothing or props for your next disguise, try reversible items that you can use in a variety of ways.

4. Space savers:  Items that are easily hidden or packed away are very useful for a disguise.

5. Watch out for your "tells"- We all have them.. whether it's biting your nails, your accent or being clumsy be aware of your tells to be more believable.
