New Advertiser :: Manic Panic
Please welcome our newest advertiser, Manic Panic!
I have a feeling everyone here has dyed their hair with Manic Panic at least once in their lives (I left an old apartment with a permanently stained Vampire Red bathtub), so we are very excited to welcome Manic Panic to Haute Macabre!
Founded on 7.7.77 by sisters Tish & Snooky, the original Manic Panic started off as a punk boutique on NYC’s Saint Mark’s Place. Becoming an icon of the first generation of punk, color was infused into the 1980′s with rainbow shades of hair dyes and cosmetics. To this day, Manic Panic remains 100% vegan and cruelty free products!
Find them on Facebook and follow their boards on Pinterest!
To celebrate Manic Panic’s new advertising run on Haute Macabre, we’re giving away one prize pack full of items from The Creature of the Night cosmetic collection, valued at $100! To enter to win, just leave a comment below!
A winner will be selected at random on Wednesday, May 23!
**Due to postal restrictions, winner must be in the United States. Items pictured above may not be the same as items in prize pack.

I currently have about 7 open containers of manic panic in my bathroom right now, ha ha.
I like how soft it makes my hair after applying, especially when I’ve bleached too much. Almost like a conditioner. I also have la-riche but I feel like it doesn’t do as much in that area.
May 16th, 2012 at 10:54 AM
I love Manic Panic hairdyes! They always leave such a nice, vibrant color. Knowing that they have lovely hairdyes, I would love to try their cosmetics. I’ve been looking for a good black lipstick for a while now.
May 16th, 2012 at 10:55 AM
Oh wow!! I didn’t realize they were vegan!! So cool! Now I gotta start making my christmas list for make up supplies from this company and hand it to my family
and now I just have to pick out the perfect hair dye.
This is gonna be harder than I thought!!! X3
May 16th, 2012 at 10:57 AM
Oh man, this brings back the memories.
May 16th, 2012 at 10:57 AM
Ahhh Manic Panic – my very first foray into hair dye. As a little obnoxious goth (and the only Jewish kid in my rich conservative republican Midwest school) I dabbled with the hair dye pretty young. It was the only rebellion I could think of, since the Piercing Pagoda at the mall would only do ears with your parent present.
The rule was “nothing permanent and do it before mom get’s home.”
(because clearly once it was in, she just had to accept the blue/hot pink/green/red)
And this was so much better than dying it in fifth grade with Kool-Aid. You guys remember that fad? Blue bangs, blue fingers for a week.
Thank you Manic Panic! To this day I’ve never left my high-school-burgundy “phase!”
May 16th, 2012 at 11:22 AM
My God…
Manic Panic and Haute Macabre – that’s a marriage made in…
I love to see Manic Panic coming back strong – they got me through my “Blue Period”.
Good to see you again, old friend!
May 16th, 2012 at 11:23 AM
I love Manic Panic, especially the Amplified colors. I have been dying my hair with Manic Panic for about 8 years now, literally the whole rainbow at one point or another. It’s funny, with blue hair (my current color of choice, been that way a few years) strangers come up to me almost every day and ask how to get their hair blue like me, people I would never expect to dye their hair let alone dye it blue, and I always suggest Manic Panic Amplified After Midnight Blue. I have never used the cosmetics before, and winning this would be the perfect opportunity for me to try them, and become a walking advertisement for whatever I get, as well.
May 16th, 2012 at 11:26 AM
Manic Panic made the turquoise ends of my hair possible before I chopped most of it off. Hooray for vegan war paint!
May 16th, 2012 at 11:27 AM
Yay manic panic!!!
May 16th, 2012 at 11:32 AM
i used some of their colors in my hair back in the day..

May 16th, 2012 at 11:38 AM
Love Manic Panic!
May 16th, 2012 at 11:45 AM
I love manic panic vampire red lipstick! It’s the best lipstick I’ve found for myself that’s red! Matches my skin tone perfect!

Manic Panic … more like nostalgic assault.
May 16th, 2012 at 11:58 AM
I love Manic Panic! I still can’t believe they’ve been around for 35 years!
May 16th, 2012 at 12:05 PM
Manic Panic brings back such great high school memories!! I STILL use their makeup. Never used their hair dyes though, was always afraid of bleaching my hair!!
May 16th, 2012 at 12:05 PM
I love Manic Panic! I always tried to get a hand on their products when i can. I love the variety of colors hair dyes that manic panic has my favorite so far is forest green.
May 16th, 2012 at 12:07 PM

May 16th, 2012 at 12:11 PM
Manic Panic! Would love to win this prize pack…I’ve been coveting their stuff since high school. My first tube of black lipstick was MP ‘Raven.’
May 16th, 2012 at 12:13 PM
my first experience was in 7th grade…some shade of purple. then onto chartreuse and others. vampire red was a good one! thanks for an opportunity to win this. so good to see a cruelty-free company doing well after all these years.
May 16th, 2012 at 12:14 PM

May 16th, 2012 at 12:39 PM
Manic Panic produce some fantastic quality products. I had my hair pink for a good three years solid. Lately I’m using Manic Panic ‘virgin snow’ as my white toner of choice for pristinely white hair.
May 16th, 2012 at 12:40 PM
This is awfully exciting! Ive been wanting to try their makeup for some time now.
May 16th, 2012 at 12:52 PM
What a wonderful prize to be won! Manic Panic makes a pretty great range of hair dye colors – have a few of them myself through the years. To try their make up out would be bodacious!
May 16th, 2012 at 12:53 PM

May 16th, 2012 at 1:02 PM
Hooray Manic Panic!
May 16th, 2012 at 1:18 PM
I’ve been using Manic Panic for over 15 years now. Currently, my hair sports a blue streak. I plan on keeping up the freaky colored hair until I die!
May 16th, 2012 at 1:45 PM
So many nice colours, I love Manic Panic sooo much *-*
May 16th, 2012 at 1:50 PM
Aaahh… these colors look so nice and saturated, and I’m fascinated by the model’s atypical eyes, since they look like mine, and I never see models with my type of eyes.
May 16th, 2012 at 1:54 PM
I’m rocking Cotton Candy Pink hair at this very moment. I LOVE their dye.
May 16th, 2012 at 2:22 PM
Manic panic ultraviolet is the most beautiful shade of hairdye <3
May 16th, 2012 at 2:41 PM
Ooh, I love the colors.
May 16th, 2012 at 2:45 PM
woo enter me please!
May 16th, 2012 at 2:48 PM
I never tried manic panic products, but some of my friends did to have funky hair and they were so happy of the quality of the products and variety of colors ! I would be very glad to try it.
Regards from France,

May 16th, 2012 at 5:28 PM

I would definitely love try out their cosmetics.
May 16th, 2012 at 7:21 PM
My dear, you have the best advertisers evvaaaar. Yay, Manic Panic!!
May 16th, 2012 at 7:23 PM
I’ve used Manic Panic for years and always got amazing colours on dark hair as well! (And a bathtub from a horror movie set.)
Whenever someone wants bright colours and asks me for hair dye advice, I always suggest MP.
May 16th, 2012 at 8:16 PM
I’m always down for some new fantastic colors for my head… be it my hair or cosmetics. And of course, like everyone else here, I’ve used Manic Panic hair dye to fun effect.
I had no idea they also did make-up!
May 16th, 2012 at 8:16 PM
In a humble voice… Pick me!
May 16th, 2012 at 8:43 PM
This is such a cool collection!
May 16th, 2012 at 9:09 PM
I’ve always loved Manic Panic. One of the only hair dyes that will actually stay in my hair a good amount of time. I’ve even got my mother dyeing her hair with it.
May 16th, 2012 at 9:28 PM
Yay! I love Manic Panic products. I died my hair Infra Red for years!
May 16th, 2012 at 10:30 PM
Love Manic Panic. Especially the color tinting shampoo. Helped keep my fire engine red hair vibrant.
May 16th, 2012 at 11:12 PM
oh man, awesome giveaway. i love manic panic. colorful and 100% vegan.
May 16th, 2012 at 11:13 PM
I was ‘Pillarbox Red’ or ‘Plum’ for many years! So awesome that they are vegan!
May 16th, 2012 at 11:23 PM
I love Manic Panic! Its one of the only products that I started loving as a teenager and that has continued being a staple now that Im 29. <3
May 16th, 2012 at 11:48 PM
I love Manic Panic, I’ve stuck by them since I was in high school. They are still one of the few companies that make foundation light enough for my skin.
May 17th, 2012 at 1:05 AM
I do need some new makeup …
May 17th, 2012 at 1:13 AM
Urban decay discontinued my favorite red eye shadow, looks like manic panic has a great replacement!
May 17th, 2012 at 2:42 AM
I’m so glad they are here! I’ve wondered if they’d advertise here any day… it seems like the perfect spot!
May 17th, 2012 at 3:33 AM
omg i love their creature of the night collection! so many gorgeous colors and products! enter me pretty please!
May 17th, 2012 at 10:09 AM

May 17th, 2012 at 10:26 PM
Oh Manic Panic, you were one of my first forays into gothdom and my 14 year old self is eternally grateful for the wonder pink streaks you gave me!

Awesome! Love it!
May 18th, 2012 at 2:15 AM
So, so appreciative of the vegan aspect.
Vegan isn’t easy and you guys help a lot. I love it and appreciate it, truly!
May 18th, 2012 at 6:44 AM
Manic panic got me through high school
May 18th, 2012 at 10:33 AM
Love your website, love Manic Panic – match made in heaven!!
May 18th, 2012 at 10:34 AM
Yesss! On my way to check out their website.
May 18th, 2012 at 2:32 PM
Yesss! My first hair dye… Everyone should experience purple hair at age 13!! I’m all permanent black now but I miss those days. Gonna grow out my natural color so’s I can see my grays, then see how they take to some manic panic now! <3
May 18th, 2012 at 2:47 PM
so fun! i definitely had some pink and blue once upon a time. i wonder if i could still rock a streak of magenta?
May 18th, 2012 at 4:43 PM
I’d like to thank Manic Panic for the pink, purple, blue, and green hair that I’ve sported. LOVE you guys!
May 18th, 2012 at 5:58 PM
What a treat! Thanks!
I was just thinking I need to dye my hair purple again. Very glad they’re advertising on your site now.
May 18th, 2012 at 7:42 PM
I’ve always used them for hair dye, but I didn’t know they has such a nice, extensive, make-up selection!
May 19th, 2012 at 4:57 AM
I am leaving a comment below.
I would be a mousy brunette if not for MP. ^.~*
May 19th, 2012 at 11:10 AM
Manic Panic made my teenage dreams come true!
May 19th, 2012 at 1:24 PM
I’ve been using Manic Panic hair dye for what… over 15 years now? I’ve never gotten to try any of their make up. It looks lovely.
May 19th, 2012 at 1:27 PM
What a perfect partnership. I’ve been a Manic Panic customer since 1994!
May 19th, 2012 at 11:02 PM
Manic Panic was involved with my first experiment with hair dyes and makeup! those years of discovery where you want bright red hair and lips to go with it.. confidence boosters are definitely manic panic products. i still use the products.. i bold hair color.. or vibrant lip color go a long way in making you feel sexy and fun. i’m definitely excited about these new gorgeous color palettes.
May 20th, 2012 at 1:52 AM
ah! to the greatness that is manic panic!
May 20th, 2012 at 3:27 AM
manic panic will always have a special place in my heart, love the packaging!
May 20th, 2012 at 6:06 AM
Ooooh, Manic Panic! Glad to hear they’re back and booming!
May 20th, 2012 at 11:17 AM
Can’t fry my hair with bleach and dyes anymore – sadness! – but yay, make-up!
May 20th, 2012 at 2:52 PM
Hay, love Manic Panic !
May 20th, 2012 at 6:43 PM
My bathtub is permanently Enchanted Forest, and I would love this.
May 20th, 2012 at 7:21 PM
I hear you on the permanent Vampire Red stain, more than one bathtub (and towel/sink/countertop) has suffered from my somewhat splattery application techniques. I’ve also loved their Raven lipstick and Virgin Pressed Powder for many years. It’s so great to see Manic Panic on Haute Macabre!
May 21st, 2012 at 12:15 AM
Love manic panic!
May 21st, 2012 at 1:18 AM
Oooh, would love to try another go around with my old manic panic friends.
May 21st, 2012 at 10:51 AM
I’ve been a Manic Panic fan since I figured out how to do my own eyeliner! This collection looks awesome!
May 21st, 2012 at 12:31 PM
AHH! Can’t live without my white face powder, which I’ve been using for 16 years! Flawless!!! Congrats on the new location in Hollywood!
May 21st, 2012 at 12:50 PM
DO WANT
May 21st, 2012 at 1:45 PM
Wow would love to win this! Shout out to Tish at Manic Panic! Love Sasha from Lip Service
May 21st, 2012 at 2:54 PM
i’m a purple haze kind of gal myself — crossing my fingers for the prize! <3
May 21st, 2012 at 4:41 PM
Wow!! Talk about a blast from the past!! I LOVE Manic Panic!!
May 21st, 2012 at 5:03 PM
Ah, the days of fuchsia hair…good times. Must check out their cosmetics!
May 21st, 2012 at 6:33 PM
I never would’ve been a red head if it hadn’t been for Manic Panic. I’d love a chance totey their cosmetics. Fingers crossed!
May 21st, 2012 at 8:37 PM
Although I love make up, I normally don’t get excited about collections, but this one in particular completely caught my attention, I love Manic Panic
May 22nd, 2012 at 1:00 AM
Manic Panic powders and pure white foundation are staples.
I’ve been mixing their white foundation with the lightest flesh tone foundation I can find, so that it will match my naturally pale complexion, for years now.
Winning this would be killer ;]
May 22nd, 2012 at 12:31 PM
I love manic panic! The colors of hair dye are top notch! And I’ve gotten my hands on a few of the makeup items.. So goulish!
May 22nd, 2012 at 10:09 PM
Bonne chance to all the pretty shadows
May 23rd, 2012 at 1:17 PM
It is nice to see manic panic still involved outside of mainstream stores/hair dye.
May 23rd, 2012 at 3:52 PM
Would totally love to win this! My hair has been either pink, purple or red for the past 15 years now! : )
May 23rd, 2012 at 6:50 PM
I hope its not too late!
I love Manic Panic
I find it lovely that you can dye your hair so many lively colors without it burning your scalp of with any harsh chemicals!
