GETTING THE MOST OUT OF OUR WATER TRANSFER TEMPORARY TATTOOS: WHAT TO EXPECT AND HOW TO CARE FOR THEM

At InkBound, we want to ensure you know exactly what you’re getting when you order our water transfer tattoos. There are a few different types of temporary tattoos out there, but ours are SFX-quality water transfers. In this post, we’ll go over the benefits, truths, and some important tips for using them so you get the best experience possible.

WHY OUR TEMPORARY TATTOOS ARE THE BEST?


We know how exciting it is to order a temporary tattoo, and we want to make sure you have the best experience possible. Our water transfer tattoos are SFX-quality, meaning they’re top-tier in the world of temporary tattoos. Whether you’re experimenting with design placement or simply enjoying the fun of a new look, here’s what you need to know to get the most out of your tattoos.

 

Surface Tattoos, No Stains


Unlike some other types of temporary tattoos, ours are a thin layer that sits on your skin’s surface. This is great because you can easily remove them and try new placements whenever you like. There’s no lasting mark, making them perfect for experimenting with different designs and positions until you find the right one!

Customisation and Flexibility


Our tattoos are fully customisable. You can get your design in full colour, any size, and in whatever style you like. This is ideal if you’re testing out a tattoo before making it permanent, allowing you to try different looks without the commitment.

The Importance of Proper Application


Even though our tattoos are temporary, they are professional-grade, which means application is key. Make sure to follow the instructions carefully, and most importantly, rinse off any adhesive residue after applying. This will prevent the tattoo from becoming a sticky, lint magnet and ensure it stays smooth and flawless.


 

Let Them Set for Best Results


After applying your tattoo, give it time to set. They are a bit fragile right after application, but over the first few hours, they become much more durable. Patience is key here—once they’ve set, they’ll last longer and look fantastic.

Small Tattoos Need Extra Care


We love small, delicate designs, but it’s important to note that the smaller the tattoo, the more care it needs. A tiny tattoo has less surface area to cling to, making it more vulnerable. For really small designs, we often include extra copies (off the record) to give you backups. That way, if one wears off a little early, you have more to play with!

Modern Temporary Tattoos Have Come a Long Way


Temporary tattoos have come a long way since the ones we used to find in sweet packets! Ours are high-quality water transfer tattoos that can last for several days with the right care. Just remember, they’re still temporary and need a bit of attention to last their full lifespan.

For more information, feel free to reach out to us directly. We're always here to help and ensure you have the best InkBound experience!

IN SUMMARY


1. Sits on the Surface, No Stains: Our tattoos are a thin layer that sits on your skin. They don’t dye the skin, which makes them perfect for playing around with placement. Remove it easily and try another one whenever you want!


2. Full Colour & Custom Sizes: We offer full-colour, custom-sized tattoos, so you can try out any design you like before committing to a permanent one.


3. Proper Application is Key: These are professional-grade tattoos, but they need to be applied correctly. Rinse off any adhesive residue to avoid them becoming a lint magnet, and they’ll look fantastic without that sticky feeling.


4. Let Them Set for Durability: Your tattoo might feel fragile right after applying, but give it a few hours to set properly. Once it’s had time to set, it will become more durable and last longer.


5. Smaller Tattoos Are Delicate: Smaller tattoos have less surface area to cling to, making them more fragile. For tiny tattoos, we often include extra copies (off the record) so you can have a few backups to play around with if one doesn’t last as long as you’d like.


6. Temporary Tattoos Have Evolved: Our temporary tattoos are professional-grade, but remember, they are still water transfers. With proper care, they can last for days, but they do need to be treated with care to stay in place and look great.
