About
how long will Body Art Temporary Tattoos last?
Body
art is a unique safe way to print and apply graphics to skin for
a short period of time.
These
temporary tattoos are just that, temporary.
Temporary
body art tattoos are designed to be removed when you shower.
To
remove your tattoo rub briskly with soap and water.
How
are Body Art Temporary Tattoos different from normal temporary
tattoos?
Unlike
temporary tattoos purchased in the store you personalized your
tattoo with your own designs your computer and ink jet printer.
Normal
temporary tattoos are printed with an ink that is transferred to
the skin. This ink is approved for application directly to the
skin by the FDA. Since we cannot control the ink used in color
ink jet printers, ink that is not FDA approved, we developed a
unique system for creating ink jet tattoos.
The
image is printed on a very thin carrier film. A thin film of medically
approved adhesive is then applied over the printed surface. The
adhesive is placed on the skin ( the same adhesive used on medical
bandages ). The thin body art film rests on top of the adhesive.
Water
is actually applied to the tattoo liner sheet which is then slid
off the body art film.
The
whole system sounds much more complicated that really it is.
Each
package of Body Art tattoos contains easy to use instructions.
Is
the removal process the same as normal store bought tattoos?
Body
art tattoos are removed in the shower with soap and water.
How
water-resistant are Body Art Temporary Tattoos?
Temporary
tattoos are only water resistant to a point.
You
can wear your temporary tattoo out in the rain, you can wash and
the ink will not run.
But
when you soak and wash with soap, your body art tattoo is designed
to flake off.
How
many Body Art Temporary Tattoos can I get out of a sheet?
Temporary
tattoos sheet size is 5 1/2 x 8 1/2.
The
number of tattoos you can print onto a single sheet depends upon
the size of your body art tattoo design.
