Special Effects

Hey everyone I just wanted to talk a little bit about my favorite time of year, Halloween! I love this day because it is the only time when you can run around in crazy costumes and get together with all of your friends to check out their own costumes. I love when someone really gets into the Halloween spirit and puts together that stand out costume that grabs all of the attention in the room. Creativity is the key to putting together the best looking costume. If you get the right materials and really put some thought into it you will be amazed with the results.

 Over the years I have tried a lot of Halloween costumes and products used to create them. The thing is usually when you buy something cheap you get something cheap. People always say "you get what you pay for" and the statement holds true. But once in a while you come across a product that exceeds its expectations.

Reel F/X is a  line of affordable latex prosthetics with a huge selection characters like Demons, Zombies, Skeletons, and more. Along with the mask prosthetics they have a lot of prosthetics of scars, wounds, and other gorey injuries that add that extra element to a costume. All of these products come at a very low cost with professional quality results. The mask molds to the shape of your face making it look like it is actually part of your own skin! Each kit will come with all the materials needed a prepainted latex prosthetic, spirit gum adhesive, adhesive remover, and step by step instructions to walk you through the process. I love the realism of the products they sell and the unique look to make you stand out in a crowd.

I am glad that I found this company and their products because their price can’t be beat for what they offer. These are my new Halloween favorites and I plan to use a new one each year. So, what is your favorite Halloween costume of all time? 

  

Halloween Tips

When shopping for Halloween Costumes, what are the first things that you consider? Obviously, most of us choose our costumes according to what we want to be. Makes sense, right? But if you want to avoid the hassle of spending money to be disappointed this Halloween, there are a few ways to go about it.

First of all, make sure you know exactly what kind of costume you want to wear and what accessories you’ll need to go with it. That’s the biggest and most important decision you’ll make. But if you’re not used to shopping for costumes or you don’t know where or how to start, there are a few things I think you’ll find helpful.

Most people overlook some very important details when shopping for costumes. When you spend too much time focused on a particular costume and the way that it looks, it’s easy to look past comfort, material, sizing and versatility. Style is, of course, important and you absolutely need to look good in your costume. But you deserve to feel good in it, too! 

The last thing you want or need when you’re getting ready for Halloween is to put your new, expensive costume on and find that it’s too small, too big, itchy or hot. And what’s even worse is when it’s too close to Halloween to return or exchange the item for something that works for you. When you’re comparison shopping, always have at least one “just in case” costume in mind before you complete your order. Find out what the costume is made out of, your exact measurements and the costume’s measurements. 

Unfortunately it’s never possible to completely plan for the weather. But hopefully you’ll know what the approximate temperature will be during the Halloween season and you can plan accordingly. Having to throw a jacket on at the last minute can completely ruin the look of your costume, but being under-dressed can be just as much of a disappointment. Good luck in your costume search this year… I hope that you found this information useful. Have fun and be safe. Happy Halloween!

Pop Culture Costumes

                We all love Movie Costumes show characters so what better way to prove how much we love them than dressing up like them for Halloween. These are probably the best costumes to wear because they are the most recognizable and always put a smile on people’s faces when they get to see their favorite characters come to life. There are so many different options to choose from when it comes to dressing like a famous TV show or movie character. This is a fun way to show the world just who your favorites are and also a good way to play out your childhood fantasies. 

                Halloween only comes once a year, but these days there are events like Comic-Con that gives you the opportunity to play dress up and not feel like a total outcast.  When you dress like a famous character it’s also easier to find couple’s themed costumes. This works well for people that want to show that they are together and it doesn’t have to be boyfriend/girlfriend or husband/wife. A group of guys can all wear outfits from a certain movie or TV show that makes them look like a team.

                In any event people love to dress up in costumes, especially when they dress like someone or something that they admire. They seem to become the character that they chose to dress up as and take on that personality. In doing this they make other people around them get more into their costume themed ideas. So, be creative and find the costume for your favorite character this Halloween.
