(Newswire.net — January 2, 2020) — Temporary tattoos are decorative designs that are adhered to the first layer of your skin, which is the real surface. Since they have adhered to your skin, they look as if they are permanent. You don’t need to sacrifice a part of your body in the name of a tattoo. Besides children, nowadays, even adults enjoy implementing the tattoos in functions or get-togethers or some parties in the town.
Temporary tattoos used to be very famous among kids until youngsters stopped getting so crazy about permanent tattoos. The permanent tattoos go green (natural green color and NOT the “greenery”) and start fading out. The design also seems old after looking at it every day for a long time. That’s when the temporary tattoos began gaining popularity among youngsters. Whether it be a make or a female, both the genders are very fond of tattoos. And why not opt for a tattoo that can be changed anytime you want? You can easily peel them off from your skin without any pain or a single penny!
The temporary tattoos last for more than two days. You cannot precisely specify the life span of a temporary tattoo on your skin. The time directly depends on the type of your skin, exposure to the sunlight, and the weather around you. Depending on the quality of your temporary tattoo, it may also last for more than ten days.
There are many methods of temporary tattoo removal. You don’t need to do an expensive laser treatment or an e-raze treatment to remove the temporary tattoos. Simply follow one of the following methods and get ready for a new one. And one more thing, you’re not going to have a single dot of the scar!
1. Using Hair Oil
Wet a cotton piece with hair oil and rub against the tattoo to peel it off. The hair oil behaves gently with the hairs on the surface of the skin, so it is ideal to use the hair oil to remove a temporary tattoo. Optionally you can also use baby oil to remove the temporary tattoo from the surface of your skin. Pour a drop or two on the tattoo and let it be there for 2 minutes. Once the oil is thoroughly soaked by the tattoo and your skin, you can rub it, and there you go!
2. Sticky Tapes
Sticky tapes are also an excellent option to remove the temporary tattoo from the surface of your skin. All you need to do is place the sticky tape on the temporary tattoo. It should also cover some of the surrounding skin. Press it against your skin with something that would stay flat on the surface of your skin for two minutes and then pull it away. Sticky tapes have the tendency to stick properly on the surface of your tattoo. Hence, when you pull the tape away, it peels-off the tattoo along with it. You can repeat this method until the entire tattoo is thoroughly removed from the surface of your skin.
You also need to be careful while using this method of peeling off the tattoo because if you have a hairy skin, the sticky tape can peel-off the hairs even. This is a bit painful, and you might experience a feeling of waxing the body.
3. Thinner
Thinner is a liquid that is made up of acetone. It is advantageous in removing the colors and inks from the surface of your skin. Take a cotton swab and wet it with the thinner. Rub against the surface of your temporary tattoo gently. Once your tattoo is eradicated, do not forget to wash the surface of your skin with water and soap. Optionally, you can also use the peroxide or mouthwash, in the same manner, to remove the temporary tattoo from the surface of your skin. If you do not have an idea where to find the thinner, go for nail polish remover or the makeup remover.
4. Wipes
Special wipes to remove the temporary tattoo is also available in the market. You can buy them from the same outlet when you brought the tattoo from. These are specially designed to remove the temporary tattoos. The wipes are dipped in a liquid that dissolves immediately in your temporary tattoo. The main component that works for this liquid is the silicon. Therefore, they work very efficiently. The only cons of these wipes are that they are pretty expensive.
