OUR CONTENT GUIDELINES

At TemporaryTattoos.com, we're all about self-expression. Our team carefully reviews every design to make sure it fits our community guidelines. We keep an eye out for anything that could be misinterpreted or harmful, like racism, violence, or explicit content.Read full guidelines here.

WHAT IS THE IMPRINT AND TRIM SIZE FOR THE TATTOOS?

For custom temporary tattoos up to 3" x 3" in size, we need a small space between your design and the edge of the paper. This space is about 1/8" on all sides, making your tattoo a bit smaller than the paper itself. For instance, a 2" x 2" tattoo will be about 1.75" x 1.75" in size. If you're ordering a larger tattoo sheet, like over 3" x 3", we'll need a slightly bigger space of about 3/8" around your design. When producing a temporary tattoo, only your design will be printed with the artwork you provided, fitting it specifically to the tattoo paper size ordered, less trim size margins. Your design is the only thing printed, not the entire size of the tattoo sheet. This eliminates any need to die cut the paper to the size of your tattoo.

HOW LONG DO TEMPORARY TATTOOS LAST?

Our classic temporary tattoos last 3-5 days and our INKFINITY™ Semi-Permanent tattoos last 7-14 days, depending on the size and placement of the tattoo. For the best application, be sure your skin is dry and free of oil, lotion, and makeup. Choose a smooth, hair-free area that doesn’t crease or stretch when you move. Once applied, our classic tattoos are waterproof right away, so they won’t come off in the shower or pool. For our INKFINITY™ semi-permanent tattoos we recommend not getting the area wet or moist for 12 hours.

HOW TO APPLY A CUSTOM TEMPORARY TATTOO?

INKFINITY™ Semi-Permanent:These tattoos require a few more steps and we recommend following the card you receive with your tattoo and review these instructions,HERE.

Traditional Temporary Tattoos:Our traditional temporary tattoos are fast and easy to apply; and all you need is water and a wet cloth. Your skin should be clean, dry, and free of lotion, oils, and makeup. First, remove the clear, protective top sheet. Then, press the tattoo firmly onto your skin with the design facing down. Hold a wet cloth against the back of the tattoo, press down and make sure to wet the paper thoroughly. Wait 30 seconds and slowly peel off the paper backing. Gently rinse the image with water for the best result and allow the tattoo to dry before touching or covering it with clothing. Every TemporaryTattoos.com tattoo has application instructions printed on the back as well.

HOW TO REMOVE A CUSTOM TEMPORARY TATTOO?
