Impermanent Ink Instructions

Impermanent Ink vs Temporary Tattoos

Temporary tattoos lie on the skin. The ink of Impermanent Ink Tattoos, on the other hand, penetrates the first layer of skin. This creates a natural reaction that will color the skin dark blue/black within 36 hours. This gives the tattoo a realistic look and can therefore be worn for 7-14 days!

Good to know

1. Before applying the temporary tattoo, make sure the area is free of hair 24 hours in advance.

2. For best results, moisturize your skin and drink plenty of water. Wait at least 1 hour after moisturizing your skin before applying the temporary tattoo.

3. The bottom of the temporary tattoo is the side without text. This is also the side you place on your skin.

4. Wet only the temporary tattoo paper with water. After application, avoid contact with water and sweat. If you do not do this carefully, it will result in a blurry temporary tattoo.

5. Be careful, you can only apply the temporary tattoo once!

6. Don't worry! Your temporary tattoo will develop its dark color after 24-32 hours. Avoid friction as much as possible during this time. Protect the temporary tattoo, after the ink has completely dried, with clothing. Skin to skin contact will result in the transfer of the color to other skin surfaces.

How does Impermanent Ink work?

The ink of our Impermanent Ink tattoos absorbs into the first layer of skin and a natural reaction colors the skin dark blue or black. This depends on your skin type.

The natural regeneration of the skin ensures that the tattoo remains visible for 7 to 14 days.

How can the tattoo look so realistic?

Temporary tattoos that you know from the past, often called stick-on pictures, are stuck on the skin while the Impermanent Ink tattoos penetrate the first layer of skin and a natural reaction ensures that the skin turns dark. Our temporary tattoos are therefore friction resistant and have a realistic look.

Are the tattoos waterproof?

Our tattoos are water resistant. That means you can swim with them, but keep in mind that the tattoo can fade faster. Sweating, for example through sports or a sauna, can even make the tattoo darker.
