Trendy Feet Tattoos: Temporary Tattoo Alternatives

In the third part of our series, we discussed tattoo removal options. Today, we will discuss temporary tattoo alternatives for those who do not want something permanent but want something that looks just as cool. Tattoo alternatives are a safe way to express yourself and are also a great test drive before deciding on a real tattoo. The options we will discuss are temporary tattoo ink, airbrush tattoos and temporary tattoos.

Temporary Tattoo Ink

Temporary tattoo ink is a great option if you want to get creative and make your own designs. The most popular color is black because of the trend in shapes, symbols and characters in tattoo design. The ink comes in a tube and usually comes with some basic stencils, so anyone can have fun with temporary tattoo ink. For even easier application, temporary tattoo ink comes in the form of pens. This ensures more accurate and detailed work. With the variety in color, you can create tattoo designs that are bold and powerful, fun and bright or profound and spiritual. It is a great way to bring out the inner artist in you!

Airbrush Tattoos

Airbrush tattoos leave an incredibly professional finish and are a lot of fun. With airbrush tattoos, the colors of ink fade into each other and spread evenly onto the skin. The result is a very smooth and very colorful tattoo that looks very realistic! Airbrush tattoos also come with stencils to ensure a clean-cut design. These tattoos usually last one week before they begin to fade.

Temporary Tattoos

Temporary tattoos are sold on sheets of smooth paper and are applied by either sticking or rubbing them on the skin. Unlike with other tattoo alternatives, temporary tattoos come in golds, silvers and even glitters. You probably remember temporary tattoos from your childhood days. Depending on the type of temporary tattoo, it may have looked very fake when you were younger but as a child, you probably didn’t care. As long as it looked cool, before it started to get dirty and turn into an ugly dark gray color, you loved it. There are some temporary tattoos that look very real. These are usually tattoos that you have to paint or rub on.

Temporary tattoo ink, airbrush tattoos and temporary tattoos are all great options to create the tattoo effect without the life commitment. These options come in handy for events like graduations, proms, weddings, parties or the beach.
