Halloween is almost here! And it’s quite a busy time for MWS! Beyond helping customers realize their costumes, we’re hosting a handful of holiday-related events as well.

For starters, our makeup pros are offering custom Halloween makeup applications (in our salon) on Oct. 28th, 29th and 31st. Contact jaci@mwsprobeauty for details and appointments.

Additionally, we are very excited to be hosting another Halloween Costume Contest. The winner will receive an in-store credit worth $200! Follow this link for the contest rules.

Of course, before you finalize your Halloween weekend plans, you need to finalize your costume! And if you’re still struggling with an idea, fear not; MWS has your back. Below are some amazing looks/concepts inspired by film and TV. You can also check out our first Halloween post for additional options.

Halloween Costumes: The Tarantino Brand

Quentin Tarantino is a master at creating characters with iconic looks. The common denominator? Blood. And if you and your friends are searching for a group costume, you can’t go wrong with bloody Reservoir Dogs-inspired suits. Of course, to achieve that look, you’ll want to pick up some Mehron Stage Blood.

Tarantino’s Kill Bill is also rife with great ideas, especially if you’re on the hunt for female characters that are rough and tough. Indeed, both the Bride and her archenemy Elle Driver are fantastic options. If you want to capture the sweaty look of their infamous sword fight, try using some Ultra Sweat Glycerin Free Wet Look.

Finally, if you and your significant other are already chained at the hip, you might want to consider dressing up as hangman John Ruth and his prisoner Daisy Domergue from last year’s The Hateful Eight. This costume can be especially fun if you opt to use Daisy’s final look in the film. For that, we recommend purchasing some Mehron Coagulated Blood Gel.

Halloween Costumes: Zombies

Zombies still hold a significant place in today’s pop culture. After all, they are featured in two of television’s most popular shows – Game of Thrones and Walking Dead. And since the fad is still going strong, it makes for a great costume! To perfect your zombie look, we highly recommend the following products:
