I use 4different kinds of temporary tattoos, and each are suitable for a different age group/purpose. Please read the information below carefully before deciding which kind you want.
Tsukineko Tattoos
Ths type of tattoo is applied using a stencil and special ink which is dabbed over the stencil. When the stencil is peeled off the design is revealed. These are very quick to apply and are suitable for all ages from 3 upwards - I've even applied them on 60-year-olds! I can do around 20 - 25 of these per hour. These tattoos last up to 5 days, and can be removed at any time - soak the tattoo in the bath and rub it with soap to remove. To help the tattoo last longer, avoid rubbing it and pat gently with a towel after your bath.
Glitter Tattoos
This type of tattoo is applied using prosthetic glue (as used in movies) drawn onto the skin freehand with a brush, and glitter is applied over the glue to make a dazzling design. These take about 8 - 10 minutes, depending on the size of design. These are suitable for ages 10 upwards, and I can do 6 - 10 designs per hour depending on what is chosen. These tattoos are designed to stay on for up to a week, and can be difficult to remove during the first 3 days. The glue will degrade gradually and at around 5 days can be soaked in the bath and peeled off.
Reel Creations Body Ink
These designs are applied using an alchohol-activated ink which is painted on with a brush. Some highly realistic designs can be made using these inks, they are Film Industry products. Suitable for photoshoots, promotional events, film shoots, adult parties.
The design below made it to the final of the 2007 Summer Free For All on the snazaroo.com website.
Airbrush Tattoos
This type of tattoo is done with an airbrush and stencils, the inks come in a large range of colours, including UV reactive!! The airbrush needs a power supply and a well ventilated room. I have about 150 stencil designs available. The ink lasts 3 - 5 days, depending on how well it is looked after. Due to the amount of kit needed there is a minimum 3-hour rate for these tattoos.
