Shreya is a freelance marketer from Pune. When she isn't writing about her extensive book lists, she creates self portraits as a form of art and we love both - her reading lists and her portraits.
Here she's rocking "Pottery Mania" a gorgeous set of pottery inspired tattoos by Anomalie artist Rajvi Mehta.
How to Apply Your Temporary Tattoo:
- Cut out the design, removing any excess material. Clean and dry your skin where you'll apply the tattoo. Place the design face down and hold a wet cloth against it for 30 seconds.
- Carefully peel off the paper backing, ensuring the design fully adheres to your skin. Gently rinse the area with water and pat dry to remove any residue.
- Voila, your temporary tattoo is ready to showcase! It should last 3-5 days. To remove sooner, gently rub with baby oil or an oil-based makeup remover, then rinse.

All Your Tat Q's, Answered!
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.
