HOW LONG DO THESE TEMPORARY TATTOOS LAST?
Our tattoos typically last 3-5 days, depending on placement and care. Avoid oil-based products and excessive rubbing for longer wear.
ARE THESE TATTOOS SAFE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN?
Yes, our tattoos are tested, non-toxic, and safe for most skin types. If you have ultra-sensitive skin, do a patch test first.
CAN I APPLY THEM MYSELF OR DO I NEED HELP?
Totally DIY! Just follow our easy instructions and you'll be rocking your new tattoo in no time. Pro tip: get a friend for those hard-to-reach spots.
WHAT IF I WANT TO REMOVE THE TATTOO SOONER?
No worries! Gently rub the tattoo with baby oil or an oil-based makeup remover, then rinse with water. It should come off easily.
ARE THESE TATTOOS WATERPROOF? CAN I SWIM WITH THEM?
Our tattoos are water-resistant but not completely waterproof. Swimming or soaking might reduce wear time, but a quick dip shouldn't ruin your vibe.
CAN I CUSTOMIZE MY OWN TEMPORARY TATTOO DESIGN?
Heck yes! Work with our design team to create a one-of-a-kind temp tat that's 100% you. Contact hello@anomalietattoo.com to do the rest.
