Spooky Season Costumes Resources & Tips

Believe it or not, costumes don’t have to be super complicated or expensive. Yes I know I literally have a closet full of things, but really it can be done with a little thought and some imagination. I never buy a store bought costume because I feel that is too limiting, plus they are usually really expensive and the quality is not that great. So, I thought I’d share some ideas to help you get creative and save money!

Start with the foundational pieces

There are a few things that I do spend money on because I can get multiple uses out of them:

Wigs – I have an assortment and you can really do a lot with them. 

Corsets – I only have 2.  I have a black one that is ripped up a little, thanks to my dog Cree who decided she did not like my brand new corset! Oh Cree Cree! I kept it and use it for zombie stuff, Day of the Dead, Steam Punk. no one has ever really noticed the pieces of destruction but I would not use it for “pretty”costumes. The other is black with pink designs. If you stay neutral you will get a lot more use out of it and they make some that are reversible! 

Crazy Lashes – I have a whole case of crazy lashes. I just removed them carefully, wipe off the glue and store them in my box. I get a lot of uses out of them. This helps save on makeup time since the lashes can really cover the eyes easily. I usually pick these up on clearance. 

Makeup – I do have a few Ben Nye colors. These colors are used a lot by clowns or performers. The makeup lasts a long time and generally stays on really well, though be prepared to wash your face several times – I usually use Skin Script’s Pomegrante Cleanser, then the Green Tea and follow up another round of Green Tea or the Glycolic Cleanser. When you paint your face green like the wicked witch, it takes a minute to get the color off! LOL

Tutus – I have 2 I bought and 1 I made – I use them all the time. 

Look for good deals on over-the-top clothing

I look for good deals on over the top clothing, such as:

  • $25 for a 70s wedding gown with a crazy amount of ruffles. Turned this into Madonna and used it in several other costumes as layering pieces. I cut the dress apart and just pin the skirt the way I want it. 
  • $3 Beautiful green velvet dress that has been used as several different fairy versions, and elf and Poison Ivy. So versatile!
  • $12.49 for this crazy teal blue, ruffled prom dress at Ross a few years ago. I was like this will make some kind of cool costume. How much is it? $12.49! Heck yeah, if this baby fits, I am buying it! It did fit and then ideas started to come in. I had thought to do it like the Queen of the Ocean or to go as the ocean. I was going to glue or pin sea creatures to the dress. I still might do that some day but that was getting a little pricey, I have been waiting to find something at the thrift store or at a yard sale that has all the pieces that I need. Then, thanks to my little cousin who loves Elsa and Zombies, Zombie Elsa was created.
  • I do have a lot of layering pieces and costumes from my former belly dance days and I pick up pieces here and there, especially if I see a good deal on something. I might borrow something but even in your own closet you can find something fun. 

A few fun costume ideas

Dia de Los Muertos – Really this is all in the makeup most of which you may have at home or can buy. NYX is a nice brand that is not crazy expensive. My Minnie Mouse version didn’t cost me anything! I pulled everything out of my closet and borrowed the Minnie ears and bow. I have had 4or 5 different versions. 

Zombie Elsa – Cost $25ish – My crazy teal blue ruffle dress, a blond wig that I teased it up kind of crazy. I had some fake blood, white and black makeup, black lashes and that was it. Since the dress was so long, I could wear super comfy shoes since you could not see them.

Cheshire Cat – $25 – I did buy my Cheshire Cat ears and Tail on Etsy. They were/are $25 which was really cheap. I could not have made them for that price. They are great and very well made. CLICK HERE FOR THE LINK I love that the ears are clips so you can set them where you need them. I have a pink wig, then I went through my closet and pulled out everything pink and purple. I had striped tights, a pink dress and at the time I had purple boots. I have worn these pieces several times. And if you didn’t have a pink or purple wig (or hair!;)) you wouldn’t even have to do that. The makeup will give a great finishing touch. Here is a great video for some versions of this.

50s Kitsch Zombies – $0 – Douglas and I did a 50s style Zombie, we dressed in 50s style clothing which we have, I painted our faces a light green and we had red lips. I made 2 large jello shots out of a brain mold and brought it to the party. 

Fairy/Elf/Poison Ivy all from my $3 green velvet dress. 

  • Fairy – $10ish I had an auburn colored wig that I had gotten for $3 so I decided to be an autumn fairy. I didn’t have time to get in a cool set of wings, plus big wings get in the way when you are dancing all night. I went to the Dollar Store and bought wings, some fake flowers and leaves. I made myself a flower crown and added flowers and leaves to the ankle of my boots. I have actually worn this several different ways. Different dress, no wigs, different boots, different makeup – it is always a great costume. 
  • Elf – $10ish just added my stripped elf hat and a belt – I do have elf ears just in case I have time to glue them one.
  • Poison Ivy -$40ish Red Wig, I took styrofoam cones (from the Dollar Store) that you use to make flower arrangements. I painted them red and then was able to take some of the wig hair to wrap around the cones. I then added some leaves and berries to my hair. I have long green gloves and I took some of the little leaves from the vine to make a kind of mask. I glued them on my skin with spirit or regular stick glue (the washable kind that kids use). I do have a cool pair of tall green boots I got a long time ago at Ross for around $18 (also used with my witches costume) and a long vintage green velvet coat from a thrift store in PA for $5. I had a different dress the first time I went as Poison Ivy. This has been one of my favorite costumes. 

The Joker – $0 clothes from my closet, crazy face paint and a green wig. Douglas also went as Joker 1 year and didn’t buy anything more than green hair paint. We used dress pants and a shirt he already had, made his hair and makeup crazy. 

Rosie the Riveter – $0 – I had everything – red bandana, jeans, grey denim work shirt and boots

Witch – $20ish – I bought a witches hat online. When it came it was that cheap foam stuff. I could not return it but I did love the shape. I pulled out my goodie box and had some tulle with purple spider webs, I cut the fabric to cover the hat and glued it in place, then I glued on Flowers, feathers, sparkly leaves that were left over from wreaths and another hat. I wore a black dress, stripped tights, boots and painted my face green and had bright red lips. I have worn versions of this costume several different times. 

Cruella Da Ville – $30ish So I bought a black and white dress for a gala and I wanted to get some more use out of it. I bought a black and white wig, red gloves, long cigarette, added some crazy blue eye shadow and voila Cruella was born. All of these extra pieces can be used later for other costumes. 

Some of the estimates are hard to give because I reuse my pieces and try to get the most out of them. Start building a little at a time and you can, too!

A sneak peek at this year’s costumes

Halloween 2021, here we come!

  • Woodland Creatures – Bad@$$ Biker Garden Gnomes and a Dark Fairy
  • Witches and the Witch Hunter
  • Dia de Los Muertos 

Then we also have actual Halloween night, Spirit Day at School and work costumes! LOL

Items we had to purchase: 2 hats (being slouchy beanie caps so they can easily be worn again), gnome beard (use this for another costume later), Fairy Wings (Who doesn’t need fairy wings?) and 1 more witch hat. 

Alright, it’s time to get your spooky on. Go have some fun and share your pictures with us on social at @raspberrymoonst!

The Complete Guide to Our At-Home Facial Treatment

Get your Glow on at The Moon…..I mean at home!

Just because you can’t make it in for a full facial doesn’t mean you can’t get beautiful skin at home. We’re now selling At-Home Facial Kits in our online store. Purchase your kit and then follow the instructions below to beautiful skin.

Tune into Facebook Live on Friday, April 10 at 4pm for a full demonstration of how to do an At-Home Facial with the kit. And we’ll have a YouTube video in the near future too.

Our At Home Facial Treatment Kit
Our At-Home Facial Kit

Also check out the Mini-Me kit further down this page so you and your little one can have spa time together!

If you already have full size versions of these Skin Script products, you’re good to go!

What you will need:

Do an At-Home Facial Treatment with our kit
  • Two hand towels
  • Microwave safe container to hold warm towels
  • Bowl of warm water
  • At Home Facial Kit
    • 2 Skin Script Cleansers
    • Skin Script Toner
    • Skin Script 2% Retinol Scrub
    • 2 Skin Script Serums
    • Skin Script Moisturizer
    • Mask from our Raspberry Moon Collection
    • Washcloth
    • Facial Mask Brush

The Step-by-Step

These are your basic steps to do an at home facial using Skin Script Rx Professional Grade Skincare Products.

1. Gather all of your supplies.

2. Soak your hand towels in water, wring out the excess and put in a closed container that you can microwave for about 3 minutes. If you have essential oils at home, you can add a drop or two to the water as you fill up the bowl to soak your towels. (Lavender is always a good option.)

3. Dispense about a large pea size of Pomegranate Cleanser, blend on fingertips and apply to damp skin. Massage the cleanser over the face and neck. If you are also doing your decollete, you will need a little more cleanser. I always start with less and then add more if I need it so I don’t waste product. Remove cleanser with warm water and a washcloth.

4. Repeat Step 3 with the Green Tea Citrus Cleanser, especially if you are wearing a lot of makeup.

5. Apply about a large pea-to-dime-sized (if you are including your decollete area) amount of Skin Script’s 2% Retinol Exfoliating Scrub/Mask – leave on for up to 10 minutes. Use your warm towels after about 5 minutes of the mask being on. Be sure to wring out excess water on the towels, cool them down some if they are too hot, fold the towel in half length wise, and wrap around the face like a moon. 

6. After a few minutes, use the towels to remove the scrub, you may also need to use your washcloth to remove any extra beads. 

7. Spray with Cucumber Hydration Toner.

8. Take 1 -2 pumps each of Ageless Hydrating and/or Vitamin C Serums on your fingertips, blend them together then apply over the face and neck (you may need more to do your decollete). You can tap the product on the skin in four zones in a cross design and then blend in from there. Every chance you get to do a little massage, make it happen! 

9. Optionally, apply your favorite Eye Serum around the bottom and the top of the lid IF your eye serum allows for that. Follow the directions in the Eye Treatment Kit if you have it or if you have cucumbers then you can slice them and apply those to closed eyelids.

10. Apply appropriate Mask with a mask brush or your fingers, massage the skin for a few minutes if you want and then rest for 10-20 minutes.

11. Remove Mask with a warm washcloth.

12.  Hydrate with the best Moisturizer for your skin type. Apply a large pea-sized amount of moisturizer to fingertips and apply to your skin, again in a cross-like motion. 

13. Enjoy your amazing skin!


Eye Treatment Kit How-To

Be one of the first four people to purchase your At-Home Facial Kit and receive an Eye Treatment Kit that you can do at the same time as your facial treatment or separately to extend your Me Time!

What you will need

  • Small Bowl with ice cold water
  • Eye Treatment Kit
    • 2 Smooth Stones
    • 2 Cotton Rounds
    • Sample Eye Serum
    • Collagen Eye Mask
  1. Put the stones in the ice water to chill.
  2. Cleanse the eye area (if doing at the same time as the At Home Treatment, do this when you cleanse in Step 3, above)
  3. Apply eye serum on the top and bottom eye area depending on your eye serum directions (see Step 9 in the At Home Treatment, above)
  4. Wet the 2 cotton rounds in the ice cold water, squeeze gently to remove excess water and have them nearby as you find a comfortable place to lay down.
  5. After applying your face mask in Step 10 above, place your eye collagen mask over your eye area, and top with the cotton rounds and then the cold river stones.
  6. Rest for 10-20 minutes.
  7. Return the stones to the ice water for a few minutes while you remove the collagen mask (but don’t discard yet) and remove the face mask as directed in Step 11, above.
  8. For a real spa experience, take any extra collagen from the mask (those sheets always have excess) and apply to your face and around the eye. Use the ice cold flat stones to do a massage around the eye area. Work from the inner eye out in circular motion. This is SO COLD BUT SO GOOD for the eyes, especially those suffering from allergies dark circles, puffiness and tired eyes. Keep expanding the massage outward from forehead to temples, down either side of the nose across the sinus cavities, even along the jawline and down the neck as long as the stones have some “slipperiness” to them.
  9. Finish with the moisturizer for your face in Step 12, above.
The Mini Me Facial Treatment Kit

The Mini Me Facial Treatment Kit

Have kiddos at home and you’re trying to keep them busy? You know they’re going to want to do facials too! They can basically do the same steps as you, minus a few products. We have a Mini Me Facial Treatment Kit that’s available on its own, or bundle it with the At-Home Facial Treatment Kit for a special add-on price.

What you will need:

  • Two hand towels
  • Washcloth
  • Microwave safe container to hold warm towels
  • Bowl of warm water
  • Honey, preferably local, in a small bowl
  • Mini-Me Facial Kit
    • Skin Script Cleanser (either Pomegranate or Green Tea)
    • Skin Script Toner
    • Skin Script Moisturizer
    • Mask from our Raspberry Moon Collection
Your little one can join you in spa time
  1. Pomegranate Cleanser or Green Tea Citrus Cleanser (Green Tea if your little one has Gluten Allergies) used the same way as Step 3, above, though they probably don’t need as much product.
  2. They don’t really need an exfoliator but you could use some honey on them. Put about 1-2 teaspoons of honey – local if possible – into a little bowl, apply a few drops of warm water to make the honey more liquid so it will spread better. Apply to face with fingertips and let sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Microwave a damp hand towel for 3 minutes, let cool slightly, and use it to remove the honey
  4. Spray with Cucumber Toner.
  5. Apply Mask and leave on for 10 minutes. If you have cucumbers then slice them and place them on their closed eyelids. 
  6. Remove Mask with a warm washcloth.
  7. Apply a pea-sized amount of Moisturizer to fingertips and dot on face before blending in.
  8. Enjoy your amazing skin!

Announcing the Raspberry Moon Store!

Hey everyone, I have some super exciting news! I finally have the Raspberry Moon Online Store up and running. This should make it so much easier for you to order your professional-grade skincare products and have them sent to your house. You can also elect to pick them up at the store. I will be adding more product lines as I go along.


Raspberry Moon's Online Store is now open!

I am so excited about the things to come this year. 2020 may have started off differently than many of us had hoped but we have to keep moving forward and doing the best we can with where we are now. 

Currently, you will find all of your favorite Skin Script Rx Skin Care online at The Moon. If you are unsure of the products that would best suit your skin type and condition, please contact me and we can set up a consult. 

Do you have dry skin? Skin that breaks out at the drop of a hat? Does your skin feel tight, look red, get irritated all the time? Well, I am here to help you create the ideal skincare routine that works best for your skin type and condition as well as your time and budget. 

Skincare doesn’t have to be complicated or scary. If all you can do is three products then do three products. Cleanser, Toner, and Moisturizer. (And for sure some kind of sunscreen to protect your skin from damage. This could be something like Colorescience SPF50 Total FaceShield so it is your sunscreen and has a little tint to it for coverage as well.) As Maria Forleo says “Everything is Figureoutable” 

Call or text me at 864.271.2710 or use our contact form and let’s get you started on a new, healthy, effective skincare routine today. 

Local and Online Resources While Social Distancing

We provided a list of some resources in our blog post about COVID-19 but since then we’ve heard a lot more great ideas so our intent is to keep updating this blog post with new resources, both local and online, for ways to stay occupied, to learn new things, to teach the kiddos, and help the local community.

For general news and local updates related to the virus, Keller Williams has a Daily Greenville site with all of that information.

If you want to help local businesses in general

The Chocolate Moose in downtown Greenville has started a website called Kill COVID not Small Biz that lets local restaurants and retail shops provide information about current hours, online shopping and/or gift cards, and other ways that the Upstate community can support each business during this time.

If you want to cook more (or better)

Make some homemade pizza while staying home
  • Want to learn to make pasta and yummy Italian Food – Check out https://nonnalive.com/ – this is a paid class but seems like it would be super fun. 
  • Christina at Atlantic Institute posts a lot of things going on in the community – The Turkish ladies did an online cooking class last week and I think they’re going to be doing another one soon.
  • Maybe be creative with your cooking! Use Google or Pinterest and try something different. My friend Angela just did a challenge with her Dave Ramsey group in February to eat everything out of her pantry and freezer without going to the grocery store. She had to get pretty creative and not everything was a huge success but it was a challenge and I thought pretty cool.
  • Michelin-Star Chef Massimo Bottura is live streaming his family dinners on his Instagram account so those who are stuck at home, just like he is, can also enjoy a delicious meal while improving their cooking skills. He’s called the series “Kitchen Quarantine” and is recording in English to reach as many people as possible.

If you want to eat in

So many restaurants are offering delivery and take out. In addition to the list on the Kill COVID Not Small Biz website, here are a few small places you might not know about:

Really just too many to name, maybe go out of your comfort zone and try something new. We are pretty stocked at home so we are cooking away. 

If you want to work out

Yoga Girl

If you miss nature

If you love the arts

  • Logos Theater in Taylors is offering 2 shows online – I love their plays and look forward to watching this at home since my live version was cancelled.
  • Shelter at home with streaming episodes of Austin City Limits. The beacon of live music is opening its archives as a gift to music fans during the current live music moratorium.
  • So now that I have my Hoopla App I can listen to audiobooks (you can also watch movies or TV, listen to music, read comics and Ebooks) from the Library for FREE! Great books I have listened to:
    • The Flight Girls by Noelle Salazar (based on historical facts about women that flew planes during WWII)
    • The Radium Girls by Kate Moore (based on a true story)
    • The Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris (based on a true story)
    • I am starting the Narnia Series now – I needed something lighter after the last 2 books! I loved them but they are on the heavier side. Radium Girls and The Tattooist of Auschwitz were amazing stories about strength, perseverance, survival and happiness. Yes, even happiness was found by many of the Radium Girls and Lalo.

If you have kids to entertain and educate (in addition to above ideas)

My rabbit is enjoying a facial during the Bear Hunt
My rabbit is enjoying a facial during the Bear Hunt
  • Dolly Parton has announced a new weekly video called “Goodnight With Dolly” which will feature Dolly reading a series of Imagination Library children’s books.
  • The author of Pete The Cat goes live at noon on Instagram! I believe it’s every weekday.
  • These virus test kits are something you have to pay for but I thought it was cool to explain what is going on now.
  • Go Bear Hunting – This looks super fun and is based on a Children’s Book.
  • Pull out those old board and card games that may have been collecting dust these last few years as we are always on the run and don’t slow down.

COVID-19 Resources and What We’re Doing at the Moon

Sending cheers with my elderberry syrup
Sending cheers with my elderberry syrup

Good Afternoon Raspberry Moon Fam,

Before we get into the serious stuff, Sláinte is Táinte (“slawn-che iss toin-che”), meaning “health and wealth” in Gaelic!

This St Patty’s Day is a little different than most, but some downtime never stopped the Irish and on St Patty’s Day everyone has a little Irish in them! So Sláinte is Táinte to you and your family. Stay safe and healthy.

I saw this Guinness commercial and really loved it so thought I would share it with you. 

Stay healthy and safe my friends,

Nicole

My Plans at The Moon

Right now, I am planning to stay open and help create a place to rest and take your mind off things. I will continue to wipe down the room after every client and we are wiping down the handles and shop every day. There are diffusers being used with 4 Thieves in most rooms. There is hand sanitizer in the bathroom and in my room.

Please wash your hands a lot! Sing Happy Birthday twice while washing to really clean your hands well.

It is so hard to do this BUT try to stop touching your face, eyes and nose. You don’t realize how much we do this all day!

Please check your appointment time – you receive reminders via email and some clients received texts based on your preference. If you decide you would like to reschedule please do so as soon as possible. 

How Do I Stay Home Yet Stay Sane?

This is going to be a challenge for a lot of people to stay home, keep the kids entertained or not go stir crazy. 

This is a great time to take advantage of reading, playing games, being creative, spending time to just regroup and just resting. Getting proper sleep is one of the best and cheapest things you can do to stay healthy. Your body needs time to regenerate so be sure to go to bed at a decent hour and get up after 7 to 9 hours of sleep.

I mean seriously, how often do you get a chance to just take it easy? I know this all can be scary but let’s see what kind of things you can do to increase your well being and how creative you can be!

Here are some ideas for you to sort of keep things business as usual:

  • If you enjoy yoga, check out Greenville Yoga – they are now doing their classes via Live Streaming and you can pay for classes as you go along. 
  • Do you have a library card? You can download audio books, movies, music, comics, Ebooks, television. 
  • Pull out those old board and card games that may have been collecting dust these last few years as we are always on the run and don’t slow down. 
  • Do home repair projects that you have been putting off! Grab your paint today or any supplies today, make use of your time. 
  • Time to clean out those closets and drawers! https://konmari.com/ or see a Google search for Konmari tricks.
  • Get those garden beds ready for planting! Read ideas on the Clemson Home and Garden website.
  • Maybe be creative with your cooking! Use Google or Pinterest and try something different. My friend Angela just did a challenge with her Dave Ramsey group last month to eat everything out of her pantry and freezer without going to the grocery store. She had to get pretty creative and not everything was a huge success but it was a challenge and I thought pretty cool.

We are pretty stocked here for a while but I am planning to get creative with things we have had for a bit we need to use up and I want to get the freezer cleaned out! 

Of course the Salvadorian LOVES beans! LOL this is what I came home to the other night.

He said when all we have left is beans I don’t get any since I was picking on him about it! (Ummm this doesn’t include the rice, pasta and beans we already had though we would have needed them at some point any how. LOL)

Some COVID-19 Resources

I know everyone has been inundated with Coronavirus information. I have been listening to this MedCram medical Course that is really in layman’s terms. The doctor does a fabulous job explaining things. I do better with this kind of information. I hope this helps you understand more about the disease and what actions to take. 

According to a video I just watched on MedCram here are some things that you can be doing to help keep others in the community safe:

  1. Get a Thermographer – know for sure if you have a fever! A fever is 100.4 F or 38.0 C
  2. If you have a fever – DON’T GO to the hospital UNLESS you need to. Your signs to know if you should go to the hospital include: Shortness of Breath, Severe Cough, Sleepiness.
  3. DON’T HOARD MASKS – Regular surgical masks don’t prevent you from getting Coronavirus! The surgical masks are used in the hospital to help prevent a SICK person from spreading disease! The N95 masks are NEEDED for Hospital workers. If they are not able to get supplies then they are more at risk and we need all of the hospital staff to stay healthy so they can do their job and take care of those who get sick!
  4. CALL BEFORE you go to the hospital! If you show severe signs such as shortness of breath, chest pain or are super sleepy then you should go to the hospital. 

There is just tons of good info on the MedCram site so just go check it out. The course is free and easy to understand, but you might need to create a free account first to view.

10 Things You Can Do to Manage Your Health at Home

if you have possible or confirmed COVID-19

Graphic courtesy of the CDC website.

If you’re not sure what products to use to clean and sanitize, the EPA website has a comprehensive list of cleaning agents that are effective against the virus. (Clorox and other familiar cleaning products are listed starting about page 5.)

Fifteen Days to Slow the Spread

These are new guidelines put out by the White House and CDC yesterday (3/16/2020):

  1. Listen to and follow the directions of your state and local authorities.
  2. If you feel sick, stay home. Do not go to work. Contact your medical provider.
  3. If your children are sick, keep them at home. Contact your medical provider.
  4. If someone in your household has tested positive for the Coronavirus, keep the entire household at home.
  5. If you are an older American, stay home and away from other people.
  6. If you are a person with a serious underlying health condition—such as a significant heart or lung problem—stay home and away from other people.

These guidelines build on the CDC’s general recommendations to help prevent spread of the virus. Americans should continue practicing strict personal hygiene, including washing hands regularly for at least 20 seconds at a time and wiping down surfaces in the home often.

Even if you are young and otherwise healthy, you are at risk—and your activities can increase the risk of contracting the Coronavirus for others. Everyone can do their part.

Please stay safe and healthy out there!
