Gene Simmons gives an oddly soothing KISS makeup tutorial

Posted on by Tom

Especially if you’re still in search of a Halloween costume, this throwback video of Gene Simmons giving a very relaxing KISS makeup tutorial to his daughter should 100% be on your watchlist. Plus, KISS just announced that the band will play their farewell tour, “End Of The Road,” in 2019 – so the timing is just right.

In this “Cosmopolitan” video from 2014, we get a glimpse at the makeup routine that made Gene Simmons famous. While his adult daughter occasionally falls into giggles at the beginning, Gene’s voice is oddly soothing as he describes the steps to recreate his iconic glam metal look as The Demon. Near the end, they share a cute moment as Dad demonstrates the need for complete coverage of the black lip.

With this life hack, there’s more than one way to carve a Halloween pumpkin

Posted on by Tom

It’s the final countdown to Halloween, which means there are only a few days left to carve up some pumpkins before the big day. Usually this would mean we’d be tracking down our biggest, sturdiest spoons and knives. But luckily HGTV was kind enough this year to remind us that there’s another way. A way that includes power tools… Go on, we’re listening.

Just be sure to clean all those pumpkin guts off the drill parts though. That stuff stinks.
