How to Make Temporary Body Art Tattoo Instructions
Design your own custom body art at home using your inkjet printer and our medical-grade adhesive sheets. Safe, fun, and easy to apply for parties, cosplay, or testing real tattoo ideas!
🖋️ Step 1: Design & Print
- ✨ Mirror Your Image: You must reverse or "flip" your design horizontally before printing so it appears correctly on the skin.
- ✨ Printer Settings: Print on the film side using "Glossy" or "Photo" settings for the best detail.
- ✨ Dry Time: Let the ink dry for at least 30 minutes. Do not touch the printed surface.
🧼 Step 2: Apply the Tattoo
Our kit uses a medically approved adhesive layer that rests between the design and your skin—acting just like a transparent bandage for total safety.
- Cut out your tattoo and a matching piece of adhesive film.
- Peel the adhesive backing and press it firmly onto the printed side of your tattoo.
- Peel the clear film off; the adhesive will now be stuck to your design.
- Place the sticky side against your skin and hold for 10 seconds.
- Dampen the back with a wet cloth for 60 seconds, then slide the paper liner off.
