This may seem like a goofy question...but, can you go into BBB and buy costumes and other items without an appointment, or are those items for makeover customers only? If you can go in and buy, do they sell the makeup palette?

You can buy the costumes at any shop in Disney. They sell them all over the place. We went to the DTD BBB location, which is inside of the World of Disney store. I'm guessing World of Disney probably has the most extensive selection. You can also go to DisneyStore.com for costumes. I don't know if they are exactly the same ones online as they have in the parks, but they look cheaper online ($49.50, versus $64.95 seemed to be the average going rate at WDW). I'm not sure about the makeup palette, but it's nothing special. You can buy something similar at WalMart, I'm sure. It just has some eye shadow colors, lip gloss & one blush.

Thanks. I have a friend who has two daughters, one with sensory issues who can't get the makeover because of her issues. My friend was wondering if you can buy the makeup because she knows they give you the makeup they use for the makeover, and she wants to be able to buy one for her daughter who can't do the makeover so that she has the same as her sister. I guess if they don't sell it, she will just buy the package and not have it applied there.

I second that the makeup palette is nothing fancy. There are many Disney Princess makeup kits at Toys R us and other retailers for the holidays.

Hi,

We are going to the BBB in the MK in early December. Anybody know whether the darker green Ariel mermaid costume shown on the first page is still there? My daughter prefers that rather than the ballgown.

Thanks!

Thanks for all the info. Thinking about getting my DD a makeover when we go in 2014. Still have a ways to go before our 180 day mark. Have to decide which package to pick so appreciate all the prices and package details on this site!

Photopass is offered at both locations. They will take pictures during the makeover and afterwards you can go have formal pictures made too. A photopass CD is @ $125 and there's no limit how many pictures you can put on one. This is a GREAT deal. You can add more pictures throughout the parks as you visit! The photographers are usually at meet and greets as well.

Is this still the case? Just making sure these photos are not only included with the photopass+.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, the BBB pics can be put on a regular PP. No + needed.

Perfect!

I was just going to ask the same! We leave in 2 days and it would take me that long to read through! Tonight while packing DD5 tried on her Cinderella dress and cried because it was so small- she clearly has had a growth spurt. So- I'll end up buying her something in the park since I won't have time before we leave to get another. Just wondering if the dress prices are the same as they are in the mall stores? I'm expecting to pay something between $50-60. Thanks!

I think in the parks they are 64.95 plus tax if I remember right

Hello this will be the first year my daughter will be able to go bbb. I want to go to the Castle breakfast -how much time should I leave for the bbb before breakfast? Thanks

If you don't get the first appointment time in the morning, I'd leave 90 minutes just to be safe.

I noticed several people complaining about running past heir appointment time when we left last time.

We were the first appointment in the morning that day, so we were ok, and it took about 45 minutes, plus check out time.....

I think this happens because the fairy godmothers in training spend so much time with the girls (which is great!).

My daughter knew exactly which dress, shoes accessories, etc she wanted, but many (especially the very young ones) were very indecisive and the fairy godmothers did not rush them at all, and went through all of their choices.

It was a great experience.

I would personally schedule a bit of extra time just to be on the safe side, rather than be in a rush and nervous about time and watching the clock instead of fully enjoying the experience.

We are getting the crown package and bringing our own dress. Can we buy the tiara seperately?

HI, I am not sure where to post this...We have done Disney twice before in 2009 and in 2010. Both times my daughter had the crown package at BBB and we brought the dress from home. She just loved it. Now she will be just have turned 7 when we go this year. We are suprising kids. I know she loved it and she still likes princesses but not like the obsession she had a few years ago. I just cannot decide if we should do it again or if she is getting too old? If we should do that and then the royal table or just skip it all and try something else. Hmm, what do you guys think?

Hi all. My Dd is going to do BBB for the first time in Aug. for her 5th b-day. So when I make the ressie 180 days out, do I have to pick a package and pre-pay, or do I do that when I arrive at BBB?

Thanks

I am sorry if this has been posted, but I am trying to find pictures of the "t shirt and tutu" you can choose. Does anybody have pics?

My daughter is turning 8 this month, and she asked to do it again on our next trip. This will be her fourth time and she is still as excited about it as she was the first time.

My daughter will be 8 when we go in December, and she has already asked if she can pick out her princess costume, and here I thought she was over the princess thing!! I too am trying to decide if it's a good idea or not.
