THE BIZARRE TRICK OF THE YEAR.A SIDESHOW CLASSIC, PRACTICALLY REMASTEREDWith the sensational release of "HOOK", Eric Ross stunned the magic community by transforming a stage plot into an intimate, closeup thriller. Not only was it thrilling, it was safe, clever, and practically designed for the modern performer. 3 years later, "Eye-Candy" is the next chapter in this thrilling journey.

With a borrowed Tic Tac, the spectator place it in the performers mouth. Slowly but surely, it gets pushed through the INNER LAYER of the face, landing in the socket of the performer's eye! The spectator can even help push the tic tac and FEEL the lump moving inside the face. If the audience is not freaked out already, you can even eat the tic tac for extra gross factor.

PRACTICAL FOR THE EVERYDAY PERFORMER

Just like "hook", "Eye-Candy" has all the amazing elements that makes this a practical thriller: A modern prop, practical method, easy to setup for walkaround. The entire effect can be performed surrounded. With nothing else visible to the audience, it makes you look truly like a modern wizard.

It also comes with a dedicated carrying case, designed to keep your gimmick in safe, sterile condition, and assist your setup process. It's also designed to take up minimal pocket space.

QUALITY MANUFACTURING BY HANSON CHIEN

The most important part of "EYE CANDY" is that it is designed to be 100% SAFE. That's why the gimmick is made of MEDICAL GRADE MATERIALS, the same material used in operation tools by surgeons; the gimmick will not melt, irritate skin, crack or cause harm to the body. To ensure the gimmick is produced with the highest quality, Eric has partnered with Hanson Chien, one of the most reputable prop producers in magic.

There has been many versions of this "Object to eye" plot, but never a Professional, dedicated product designed to help you achieve this effect in a safe, controlled way. If you appreciated how safe "HOOK" is, you will be even more Impressed by "EYE CANDY".

EXPERT TRAINING TO KEEP YOU SAFE

Part of the safety also comes from quality training. More than 40 minutes of expert teaching from Sean Chou, Poker Chen and Eric Ross, walking you through both the safety notes and performance tips, with multiple Live performances and Studio walkthroughs to show you all the different variations. We even brought in people who have never learned this effect before, and filmed their learning process real time, from start to finish. (Spoiler Alert: they all succeeded!)

Eye Candy - Frequently Asked Questions

How Safe is "Eye Candy", really?
There is a reason why we designed this effect based on "Tic Tacs", a LIGHTWEIGHT object with a POLISHED, SMOOTH surface. This is a much, much safer object than other choices previously used in magic plots involving the eye. As long as you know what you are doing at all times, you would be very safe. So please watch the ENTIRE tutorial and learn carefully; we did everything from our side to produce the safest prop and detailed teaching, it's your job to take good care of yourself during performance.

Is this product a consumable? Do I need to buy refills?
Our gimmick is designed to be reusable and built to last. The only refills you need to buy are the Real Tic Tacs that you actually eat! (OUR PRODUCT DOES NOT COME WITH REALTIC TACS.)

How long is the setup time like?
Less than 30 seconds. You can setup anywhere as long as you are not seen (a bathroom break would work). The carrying case is designed to help you setup from beginning to the end, so it should be very straightforward.

Can I perform EYE CANDY while wearing contact lenses?
Yes. In the trailer, our performers are already wearing contacts while performing, so it is absolutely fine. We have also given extra setting and performing tips for contact-wearing performers, to make sure everyone can do the effect as designed.

Can I REALLY learn this? How steep is the learning curve?
In the tutorial, we invited people who has never done this before to learn with us; all of them we able to get the hang of it within the first few minutes. We have also included the original tutorial from Eric Ross to cover all content from the very inception of this routine.

Awesome but respect it! Report this review

I love this trick. Its awesome and makes people scream guaranteed. One thing I want to add to my previous review; follow the instructions thoroughly. I was performing couple of weeks back in a party. Have to say I had a few myself and in the bathroom there was no soap, mirror.. etc, bit of a dive bar in the city. I thought might be ok, whatever. Next day I woke up with a swollen eye that last for a while. So net net to me this trick is a game changer , and plan to do it all the time, but wash your hands and keep your props 100% clean! Not a negative at all just a reminder of what the instructions say over and over!

I have been performing this for a while now, so wanted to add another review that takes into consideration my experience.
1/ It kills.
2/ Be careful, Wash hands, wash gimmick and let it dry.
3/ The thing that is increasing the reactionsn have to do with convincers. Good acting for the effect , and planning how to " get those tic tags into play Best reactions I got were when I sent few guys from my dinner table to actually buy a tic tac box from a close deli. Remove the heat. Make it feel impromptu.
5/ And milk it. milk it. milk it . This one is not one to rush.

Absolutely love it. Always wanted to learn block head, still on the fence about it. This one does it for me.

Phenomenal Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 23rd, 2023
I’ve been such a huge fan of this plot, for forever. Wasn’t a fan of pulling a string out my eye, as everyone I know who does it, says it stings a bit. Fell in love with the version Justin Flom did with nerds candy, but no one ever seemed to sell it.
In 2014 I got ‘What am I thinking’ by Marc Spellman which had a version with popcorn kernels. Did that version for a hot min, but never made sense to carry popcorn corn kernels on me, in an Altoid can.

THIS is by far the best version of it. You get two sizes, 4 gimmicks in total. The carrying case is so small having a pair of eye safe tweezers, a mirror and carry’s your back ups in case you accidentally lose one, of the 4 you have (as well refills are cheap on Hansons site)

This is gonna get reactions, no matter who you perform it too. If you milk it just right, you have an absolute miracle!!

The only thing I don’t like is there is no option for ORANGE. Everyone knows the best Tic Tacs are the orange flavor. Now I gotta carry the lame mints on me, but a small price to pay for a tru gem.

Buy now!
