Top 3 Sexiest Horror Costumes

It’s that time of year again…Halloween! Have you decided on what to wear for this year’s hottest Halloween parties yet? One of the biggest questions many women face when it comes to choosing the perfect Halloween costume is a theme. Some may want to go a traditional Halloween route and pick out a horror costume while others may be more interested in having sexy Halloween costumes to show off their hot body. However, did you know that you can choose both? Here are our top picks for the sexiest horror costumes this year.



1. Dark Angel/Gothic Vampire Costume – This unique costume can be worn in two different ways making it perfect if you’re planning to hit up multiple Halloween parties this season. Wear it with the wings for a sexy dark angel look. Or, remove the wings and add some fangs for a sexy, seductive vampire look. It’s definitely a darker, scarier twist on the typical innocent angel costume that many other girls may choose. However, that just means you’ll look more exotic and stand out against the crowd! This costume could also work well as half of a couples costume. Have your significant other dress up in a devil’s costume with a mask or if you’re wearing it as a vampire costume, have your partner go as Dracula. Or, you could even go with a friend and have one of you be the good angel and the other the dark angel.

2. Queen of Darkness Costume – It seems like every girl wants to be a Disney princess these days. Walk into any given Halloween party and you’ll be sure to find a whole sea of them. You may even see a bunch of girls dress up as the different princesses together. But where’s the horror that Halloween was made famous for? Why be a princess when you can be a queen? This queen of darkness costume will allow you to remind everyone that Halloween is supposed to be a bit scary. However, with the tight faux leather fit and mini dress and skirt --- you’ll also have the opportunity to show everyone just how sexy you can really be. Princesses are pretty --- but the Queen of darkness oozes of sexy, mysterious gothic appeal.

3. Red Illuminaughty Sexy Costumes – There’s never anything nice about a devil. They are supposed to be a bit scary. However, this may just be the sexiest devil costume we’ve ever seen. With its plunging neckline, tight silk fit, short shorts, and long boots, you’ll be sure to capture the attention of even the purest angel at the Halloween party. You’ll look so smoking hot that people will almost forget that you’re a devil and devils are anything but nice. Now, don’t be too hard on those poor, innocent souls you plan to steal….

What is the sexiest horror costume you’ve ever worn for Halloween? Would you try any of these costumes? Leave a comment letting us know which one is your favorite!

Skn Clinics


I am one of those lucky ones who never really suffered with breakouts at school, I get the odd spot now and again but other than that ive been quite lucky. The same cannot be said for my younger brother and sister who when they were younger and for my sister, even now had bad skin. Both suffer from breakouts, in the same place funnily enough, on both cheeks. Growing up the main spot treatment everyone used to turn too never really did anything for my skin, if I did get that dreaded one spot, which would be huge and on the end of my nose or right in the middle of my forehead, I always slapped Sudocrem on it and away it would go, but not everyone is that fortunate.

These days there are so many options for people to choose from when it comes to Acne treatment and there is just so much more advice out there for people. Skn Clinics offers a huge amount of treatments for Acne Scarring


Acne scarring occurs in the dermis, which is the area of skin immediately below the surface that acts somewhat like a cushion. When people suffer with acne, the dermis becomes inflamed as the body attempts to repair the wound created when scaly skin, pimples or blackheads are burst or otherwise removed.  

Is the apparently explanation as to what it is and I know for some family and friends, it has made them lose their self confidence because they constantly believe people stand and stare at them, knowing there is something that can be done, really pleases me.

At Skn Clinics every treatment is different for each person and a consultation is offered with trained and experienced skin experts to help the patient decide. In some cases, combining multiple treatments may have the best effect. I have been reading through some of the stories from people who have been having treatment and the results are amazing, ive even emailed one of them to my cousin who had the worst acne I have ever seen in someone right up until she was in her late 20's and she used to pack on her make-up so people wouldn't stare at her, now I am hoping she will read the article I have sent.

Have you ever had this kind of treatment?

Studio Make Up Brush Set

My Goddaughter turns 16 in a months time and she is at that age where make-up is a big part of her life. She is discovering what she likes, what she doesn't like, what works for her and what doesn't and like most 16 year olds money is not something she has a lot of.  So when I asked her what she wanted, she mentioned she would like a few bits of make-up and some brushes.

So I've decided to make her up my own version of a beauty box full of products I think she would like and shades that will suit her, please feel free to make some suggestions for brands and things I should definitely include, but when it comes to brushes, Superdrug have some amazing products this today is one I am going to rave about.

Available now for just £5 and yes I did say five pounds, this complete set of brushes from Studio could be yours and they are ideal for my goddaughter, though it will admit I am toying with keeping them for myself! In this set there are five brushes, so that is a whole £1 per brush and they comprises of:
  • Eyeliner Brush
  • Angled lip brush
  • precision eye brush shadow brush
  • Blending eye shadow brush
  • Powder brush








These brushes were created in collaboration with a professional make up artist and they make an absolute wonderful starter kit.

What do you think to these brushes?
