If you're doing body paint and either you can't afford arm socks, or the outfit you're wearing shows a lot of skin, I present to you - morph suits. They do have a zip at the back and a lot of them have morphsuit printed on the lower back, but I found it was a lifesaver for my Marcelline cosplay.
Laughs in monokuma
@@Aventurine__8 f-
Luckily my cosplay definitely needs one (Spring Bonnie)
@@Aventurine__8 that’s when you buy 2 of the same type cut them in half and sew them together.
@@magicspell1780 ohhhh ok thx
Hack number 5 is really fun. In 2019, my best friend and I went to Momo Con and the first morning when we arrived at the convention center, I went to the Starbucks in the food court dressed as Keith from Voltron: Legendary Defenders and one of the baristas noticed my cosplay and put the characters name on my cup. It brightened my whole day and I loved hearing them call out my name.
Hey, you!
I want to go to MomoCon. They cancelled it again this year..
Omg lol another Voltron fan!!
I love voltron! Keith is so cool!
press-on nails are something i’d find so useful! i struggle with painting my nails since they’re often really short and i get the polish everywhere :) great tip!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! 😃🙌🏻
In the same vein as the Starbucks hack, I’d love to hear more ideas about like fun things to do at cons outside of the actual con stuff. :D
Go to a shop and, in character, get something the character would buy, like if your an angel dust cosplayer like me, a dildo, and just act like the character in Normal places
@@thecutelilpupxxx9937 that is the best thing I’ve ever heard
i usually go to a gas station before/after a convention, because it's hilarious seeing people stare but never saying anything at all to be polite.
especially kids, they stare so hard until I say hi and they suddenly act shy or say hi back
Who else found Anyas channel from the first cosplay hack video?
Yep
I did.
I was working on a costume when I found her OG vid. My mom's sewing machine decided to stop working, so I had to put that on hold and work on another one. Now I know more.
Yep
Wish the Australian Starbucks stores had the app.
Cause I had a barista spell “Kylo Ren” as “Kyle Ren” once and posing with that was an awkward yet funny experience
Arm socks! Super good if you’re cosplaying a character and don’t want to paint your body! Great for any fandom
Body paint genuinely scares me, this is a really good tip!
@@candiedcockroaches yeah, it’s a lot haha. You can find the color tights you need for super cheap! Maybe Anya can share some resources in a future video~
Thanks!! My friends and I are wanting to do a Steven Universe cosplay soon, they asked me to be Peridot :)
@@candiedcockroaches Aw that sounds so fun!
Is is how I avoid doing the arm paint for dabi and saving myself like 1-2 hours
Ever since you told me about the Starbucks app I don't have to cry over my name being spelled as SALAMI.
SALAMI OMG 😂
I wanna do the Starbucks thing in my Venti Cosplay from genshin impact...imagine Venti orders a Venti xD
This would be so cute!!
Omg you have a venti cosplay ?!😍
I can’t wait until I can go to cons again!! Lol I’d love to order at Starbucks in cosplay, hopefully I’ll be brave enough.
There's no reason feel shy.
Yesss this is awesome! I love all these hacks and I can’t wait to try them when conventions come back! 🥰
Yes! Can't wait to see more con video from you!
Oh my goodness I love your videos
Thank you so much, I'm so glad you found them helpful! 🥰
Oh mah gawd Brigit watches Anya???
Aaaaaa Brigit you're here too! Hi 😁
My own personal nail hacks for cosplay: Peel off base coat! Holo Taco and Unt both make these, but basically you use it as a base coat, put your manicure on top, wait for it to dry, then peel it off in one peelie. You can use the same base coat on the peelies to reuse them. Then the nails are custom size, color, and finish. Also useful if you want to do nail art for cosplay.
Also possible is to paint the nails and peel them off after they are completly dry and then it is possible to reattach them with more peel off base coat. If you have a design that takes time on the nails. :) But yeah agree peel off base coat ❤️
Oh the smoothie tip is so helpful!!! I'm constantly trying to find foods to eat on the go and the usual go to is poptarts and cereal bars, and a drinkable yogurt.
I bring a bag of whey protein and a packet of milk (the kind you don't need to keep refrigerated) to every convention. I'm on my feet all day long, might as well turn it into a workout 😂
I have a tip to offer, if you have a character who has a different skin colour like red, blue, green ext... rather then body paint you can buy or make body suits that are in the colour of your character, along with the suit you can get matching gloves which you can glue fake nails to, this way you only have to paint your face and it’s easier for you because it takes up less time but it also stops paint from getting on the cosplay that you worked so hard for
I’m picking a cosplay that already wears gloves.
Convention food is even harder when you have allergies or a restrictive diet. I’m dairy free, and always bring my own food
Thought the same, I'm fructose-intolerant so no smoothies for me 😔
I’m allergic to dairy, red meat, and intolerant of soy. I also have blood sugar issues which require me to eat exactly when I notice any low blood sugar madness starting.
I’ve learned to bring my own food. Avoid risks, avoid long lines, guarantee I can eat.
Smoothies can be made with also juice or water.
@@roxassora2706 A lot of them contain protein powder, which has dairy in it
I have ARFID, a food disorder and it’s so hard.
You could probably find a shinny and transparent balloon that would have that bubble gum appearance. I feel like I've seen some at party city! This is such a smart tip tho! I really want to get better at posing in cosplay ☺️
i cannot believe i havent thought of press on nails. i have ugly ass nails from anxiety biting, and im always self conscious about it in cosplay. Bless
Press on nails are my go to! I can’t do French tips to save my life but the stick on ones are so nice and really help! They can be a little pricey but are honestly worth it! Biggest thing to note with these is that when taking them off run your hand under hot water or take a q tip with a little acetone and put it under the fake nail
Are they reusable? I'm thinking about using them but I think it would feel kinda wasteful to use them once and throw them away.
@@chicka-boom7540 Sadly they are not but they can stay on for at least a week (longest I've gotten mine to stay is two weeks). What I do is I make my cosplay line up around the nails. For example I can do a pair of french tips and use them for Lucy (Fairy tail), Weiss (RWBY), Edelgard (FETH), and Vanilla (Nekopara). Or I can get a red set and use them for Junko (DR), Sonia (DR2), Cherri Bomb (HH) and any other character that wears gloves (Sailor Venus, volume 8 weiss, Hilda, etc)
@@rhihylia3155 aww, whatt? i thought they were reusable! the glue can stop being sticky and stuff but for me reusing them seems like, fine. ive reused some once and it was ok
Oh! Ballet flats definitely seconded! They make flats that specifically fold up incredibly small and into a small bag. They fit in my little cosplay bags and they come in all sorts of colors and sizes!
press on nails are a life saver since i have short af nails from biting them 💀
When you’re wearing armsocks or really long gloves that can be difficult to get on and off, bring a pack of unpowdered rubber/latex gloves with you for bathroom trips. Put a pair on over your costume gloves/armsocks, take em off when you’re done, no need to wash your hands and your cosplay gloves/armsocks are still nice and clean.
For my ruby rose cosplay wear black swim shorts under neath my dress as a extra covering in case tight are at all see through and the skirt flare up due to wind and a wave cap for keeping the bobby pin from poking through the net version of a wig cap
The first cosplay hack video was how i found you, this is giving me so much nostalgia lol
Anya's look today with the hair and outfit is '80's boss about to fight some robots in the vaporwave neon world' and I'm here for it
👏I👏Need👏Covid👏to👏be👏over👏for👏cons👏 I've only been to one con, and I NEED to go again now that I have more skill and have more people to cosplay with.
Hi! Personal trainer and cosplayer here. When I go to conventions I recommend protein bars rather than granola or energy bars. Protein is more satiating than carbs and fats. My favorite are Quest bars because they are zero sugar, have fiber, and 20 grams of protein. Hope this helps! :D
Some people might need the glucose, especially people who have chronic low blood pressure or any kind of metabolic issue where having carbs is more important for preventing fainting episodes than protein, which is less digestible. Smoothies are a better option for people who’d be in this boat. :)
Also, protein bars are heavily processed (zero sugar usually means an artificial sweetener is used instead), so people with any kind of sensitivities including GI sensitivities need to be careful (organic/non-gmo are an option, but costly!) consider making homemade granola with a dried nut combination for a little protein to help stave off conmunchies instead!
as someone who wore wedges with my love live cosplay, my feet hurt so bad after a photo shoot i could barely walk and had to switch to flats, i've now learned to wear flats before and after the shoot to keep my feet from dying.
I'd never have thought of the bubblegum hack, I'll keep it in mind! And bringing comfy flat shoes is the ultimate hack
For the ballet flats, I use those inside of my shoes I need for my cosplay! I use fabric elf shoes for my cosplay and it makes this so much easier!
Edit: Months later, I know this was the worst possible idea, I recommend using sneakers inside of shoes like this- my feet were dying by the end of the day. AND THEY WERE NOT BALLET FLATS I FOUND OUT- THEY WERE LITERALLY DANCE SHOES 🩰
The ballet flat trick is great, they even make special ballet flats that are designed so you can roll them up and keep them in your purse so they take up even less space. Insoles and padded socks are also lifesavers when going to conventions!
Roll-up flats?? That's amazing! 🤯
@@AnyaPanda www.cinderollies.com/shop/ the soles are a bit too thin to wear as regular shoes but they're great for cons and hotels when you need a break from your cosplay shoes
I didn't know you could do that with Starbucks!! If I ever do that, I am going to put the most random name ever!!
Idk what this is yet though😂😂
If I ever get the chance to cosplay in the future I'm definitely using these hacks
This makes me want to go to a con so badly😭 these are really helpful thank you!
I'm so glad you found them helpful! 😃 Thank you for watching! 🥰
i never thought of press on nails! I'll definitely be using them for my Junko cosplay!!
i cant wait to use these when i go out in cosplay to scare small children
Ahh yes my favorite activity scaring young children
so real i love doing that
Anya: See? Squishy!
Me: Yes!
This made me miss cons!!! The smoothie hack is so great! I would’ve never thought of that!
When I saw the notification I almost immediately clicked on it- all of your hack videos have been so helpful!
I’m only like 10 seconds in and it’s already the best video I’ve seen this year
Aww bless you! 😂💕
In saving up to go to a con I will def remember these for my first convention
THAT BUBBLE ONE!! THANK YOU AHHHH
Hack number five is actually really fun! I’m a young cosplayer, I was cosplaying Evan afton from five nights at freddys 4 and I ordered a lemonade so I asked my mom to put my characters name on the cup. Loved it ❤️
I love that!
I'm soooo messy but because of that I don't like a lot of things food/drink wise, getting messy is not my biggest concern.
So what I always do is bring a fabric apron [sometimes part of my costume anyway] and at least 2 fabric napkins. :)
I always swear by smoothies for convention food, they're perfect 😂 another great cosplay hacks video 💜
Press on nails are the best. Especially when you do multiple cosplays at the same convention.
Press on nails saved me so much from going to the salon and I adore them.
I use the sticker nail and nail glue(one drop) and put them on before I fall asleep (to secure them on) to make them last longer.
BUT as a cosplay hack as you’ve explained I’m like YAS!!!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
an alternative for ballet flats is literal ballet slippers. They can fold up VERY small and almost feel like socks. I've done it a few times and technically they're still shoes 🏃♀️💨
also- I get mine from my friend who does dance so don't ask me where to find them. Although I think they're pretty easy to find.
OH AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET FLAT SHOES NOT POINTE SHOES! (pointe shoes are anything but comfortable and extremely dangerous if you don't have the proper training) also please don't buy Amazon pointe shoes. ever. (or pointe shoes in general if you aren't a dancer with the right training). get flat shoes for the cosplay and sew on some ribbons. your ankles with thank me later 😁
love,
your friendly neighborhood former ballerina turned cosplayer :)
@@annabelledoesstuff Yes!! Please make sure you're not getting pointe shoes for this use. 💀
I love cosplaying Greek gods me riordanverse characters! This helped me very much!
Smoothies... never thought about that. These were actually super helpful.
I love the star bucks hack i think its just such a cute thing to do i will definitely have to try it out!
These are really great things to keep in mind! I think having an arsenal of hacks is great since at one point or another they will come in handy especially the smoothies and ballet flats. I normally just drink at least 2 cans of Coca Cola or Sprite soda because I wear cosplays that have corsets, solid food is really hard to have especially if the outfit has to have a corset or a built in corset that restricts eating unoess someone unlaces the back enough for me to eat and is willing to help lace me back up.
The ballet flat hack works for going out drinking with your friends as well. I have a couple pairs of high heels that look awesome but as heels tend to do they start to hurt after a while so I just have the flats in my purse. Also if you don't wear heels all that often drinking might make them even more difficult to walk in and the flats help with that. Please drink responsibly.
Translucent balloons work really well for bubble gum shots.
Smoothies are incredible for cons… the next con I am going to is really close to a smoothie place and it was such a great place to eat last year. This will be my first year in cosplay though.
Oh my gosh going to Starbucks in cosplay would be so cute! Also: I've been trying to find a wig for a Gwen Stacy cosplay (into the spiderverse ver.), not the side shave + Spidey suit Gwen, just her school uniform and pre-Miles messing her hair up Gwen lol But I've been having a lot of trouble, the only one I can find that looks similar and is decent quality is from a UK site and all my fellow Canadians know the exchange rate is CRAZY so it's pretty expensive (like 50ish dollars Canadian and I'm not sure if I'd be willing to pay that much for a wig) any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated 💜
Personally I LOVED the start, "Cosplay Hacks - I'm In!!" And as usual, great video, Anya! Thanks for the 5 Cosplay Hacks. xx
Whoo health combo!!!
omg the nails is genius. ive seen them in stores but i just realized that it will keep me from biting my nails. also they will look way better than painted nails. thank you!
These are wonderful! Your original hack video is one of my favorites and I think that even though cons are still on hold, these are fantastic for when everyone is ready to safely get back to them
Anya: I suggest smoothies!
*me flashing back to that one story time* x_x
:')
awesome vid as always! i might pitch the smoothie bar idea to the local con managers, as they always bring non-cosplay-friendly foods (cant even count the amount of times i got food stains on my cosplay, especially my favourite - pizza flour on black clothes) most of my cosplayer friends refuse to eat because of the foods around :(
Thanks for the tips ! I'm not really gonna cosplay but it's super intersting
Another hack for the high heel thing: sometimes flats will also hurt you (gonna add my experience) so I can also recommend dance shoes. These are made for a lot of action and they're super comfortable. Also quite expensive (~40$ more than regular high heels) but they will last an eternity, are super comfy and there are so many different kinds that you'll still find the perfect shoes for the cosplay.
I did the thing with the ballet flats so often and it's great, but once I was wearing my Princess Peach Summer dress and I couldn't wear the high heels (dance shoes) for most of the day because literally every pavement and street was just cobblestone and it was impossible to walk in the high heels without slamming my face into the cobbestone or break my ankles or both. I took matching ballet flats with me and they were super cute but they gave my feet more damage than even regular high heels could have ever done.
when you make a bubble from gum bit down a bit once its big enough so the air stays in it
I’m making an Amity Blight costume right now 😂, I’m definitely going to use the nail hack for that.
ALSO! 5:55 bra paddings! Helps a ton! Put them in the shoes like where most of the pressure is and it helps!
oh bra padding is a thing?
thank you so much for these! the starbucks hack is super cute^^
I think the nails hack is funny because I was looking and found some really cute nails….
then I remembered my cosplay has gloves and you can’t see them lol
Love the intro! Another great video and loved all the tips/ hacks. The Starbucks one is great for shy people who still want to have fun! Def gonna do that one at the next con. Loved it.
Aww these are all super helpful, thank you! 🥰 Funnily enough during my very first con I visited a Starbucks as Chi from Chobits, and the barista asked my friend if he was my Hideki! 😄 It was so fun 😄
I love how energetic you are :)
im so glad for these hacks cuz im going to animenorth 2021 and i was worried about a fair few of these
About the food part: drinking liquid meals like yfood with a straw is my recommendation!
hi love your videos!
One of my favourite hacks for cosplay is, if your filming Tiktoks and want to do multiple characters, having a simple makeup look that works for many characters can cut down on time.
Another tip on having food while keeping yourself clean; Bring along a zip up jumper or hoodie and wear it over your costume in order to reduce the chance of you spilling anything on yourself. This can also apply in helping you to stay warm.
Holy heck why have I never thought of smoothies before? I am 100% havinh smoothies from now on a conventions.(especialy because I am an expert at getting food on my cosplays)
charlie cosplay??!!!! im going as alastor to my next one :D
10/10 for the intro joke 🔥🔥🔥
Solid tips and the smoothie hack has always been a con lifesaver even when running around from different shoots!
Also flashbacks to the Raven shoot as soon as you mentioned the stick on nails haha 😅😅😅
Another banger video Anya!
I love your cosplay hack videos so much Anya!!!!! you're so awesome💕💕💕
Aww shucks you're so sweet! 🙈💕
Im new to cosplay and about to start thank you for these videos it helps alot
In the same vein as the smoothies, cold soups. Some soups are meant to be eaten cold (like gazpacho which I love) or are good both hot and cold, you can buy them in a bottle or carton or make them at home and bring them in a bottle, you stick them in your hotel fridge and pour them into a reusable smoothie/coffee cup to drink on the go. If you have a microwave in your room you can do the same with hot soup, it feels a little weird to drink soup from a smoothie cup but it works just fine. I also try to always carry a couple of candy bars in my bag/purse, they're not exactly healthy but if you're susceptible to low blood sugar or you just get hangry they're great.
Wait so your telling me my favourite food is also the best food to drink in cosplay? Man that really is a win-win scenario for me!
Omg i love the Starbucks one i actually do that when i am in full zombie sfx and get a coffee with zombie on the cup proper perks me up at the start of the day
what kind of bag do you recommend to take with you on a con? Backpacks arent very good because they ruin your costume, but a handbag isnt big enough for everything either and can get tiring to carry.
Backpacks can be good if you don't have a long wig, otherwise I like messenger bags or rolling backpacks.
I wish I could use the press on nails, but my nail shape does not go well with them. If you get acrylics, though, you can soak cotton balls in acetone and wrap them around your fingers and then pack that in aluminium foil for half an hour. They are a lot easier to get off like that.
You look extra gorgeous in this video ! For the bubble hack there is those sorts of balloon paste that you can blow bubbles out of, they're a bit difficult and dont last that long I think? Well still more than bubblegum but since they're a bit translucent maybe they would look cool in photos !
Things like lipstick on your teeth just add to your charm
You're such a life saver Anya, I will definitely try all of them :^) thanks a lot!! 💕
I'm so glad you found them helpful! Thank you for watching. 🥰
Hi,do you have another option for the bubble gum hack for anyone who is allergic to the latex balloons?
Please tell me how you transport styled wigs. I have a wig I have styled and I don’t think putting it in a suitcase is a good idea. Please help.
Gosh, I wish I could work at a Starbucks near a convention so that anyone I recognize I can write down their character name for them
I love the impress stick on nails vs the glue on ones because they seem to stay on better. I've used glue on nails in the past and they pop off way too easy and the impress ones are less mess then glue and easier to take off.
These tips are so good 😱
Best intro!
Edit: Also, about shoes and soreness of your feet. I would highly recommend insoles (I believe that's the right name). I have gotten some for work as my new job has me standing all day so that would be pretty similar to a con.
I have very squishy ones that have a hexagonal or beehive shape/imprint on them. They also don't stick to the sole of your shoe (or at least mine don't) so you can use the one insole and keep swapping it out to the shoes your are wearing. The one I got was under $20.
Thank you so much!!! My first cosplay was March 2020 and that was a few days before lockdown, and I wasn't proud of my cosplay at all though I didn't even research tips or ways to improve my cosplay.
Currently, I have a goal to win 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place at a convention and I'm extremely dedicated and determined. Thanks for the video. I think it has worked a lot of people.
These are so helpful especially for a beginner like me
OMG I WANNA DO THE STARBUCKS THING!!
woah this is exactly what i needed today :D omg ty!! ^^
Who remembers the shoes party city used to sell that came in a small purse?? I loved those for cosplay
