FAQ

Everything you need to know before you ink.

How long do Fake Tattoos last?

Our Fake Tattoos can last up to 7–14 days with proper care. How long they last depends on factors like skin type, placement, friction, and daily activity.

For the longest-lasting results, apply to clean, dry skin, avoid lotions and oils, and minimize excessive rubbing or scrubbing.

Waterproof. Long-lasting. No commitment.

Do they really look permanent?

Yes, that’s the whole point. Fake Tattoos are designed to closely mimic the look of real ink, with rich color, realistic detail, and a natural appearance on your skin.

They’re made for anyone who wants to look tattooed without the permanent commitment. Wear one for a few days, a couple of weeks, or simply change your design whenever you want.

Real tattoo look. Zero permanent commitment.

Are Fake Tattoos waterproof?

Yes! Fake Tattoos are waterproof and made for everyday life. You can shower, wash your hands, and enjoy your day without worrying about your tattoo washing away.

For the longest-lasting results, avoid excessive rubbing or scrubbing and pat the tattoo dry instead of rubbing it.

Waterproof. Realistic. Made to last.

How do I apply a Fake Tattoo on my skin?

Applying your Fake Tattoo takes just a few simple steps:

1. Clean & Dry
Start with clean, dry skin. Avoid applying over lotion, oil, or moisturizer.

2. Peel & Place
Remove the clear protective film and place the tattoo face down on your skin.

3. Wet With Warm Water
Press a damp cloth or paper towel firmly over the tattoo. Warm water works best! Keep it wet for about 30 seconds.

4. Peel & Reveal
Slowly peel away the paper backing. If the tattoo hasn’t fully transferred, press it back down and wet it again.

5. Let It Dry
Give your tattoo a few minutes to fully dry before touching or rubbing it.

That’s it! You’re ready to show off your new ink.

Pro tip: Clean, dry skin + warm water + minimal rubbing = longer-lasting results.

Does it hurt to apply?

Not at all! Applying a Fake Tattoo is completely painless. There are no needles, no poking, and no skin penetration, just apply, let it transfer, and you’re done.

It’s an easy way to enjoy the look of a real tattoo without the pain or permanent commitment.

No needles. No pain. Just ink-inspired style.

Can I remove it early?

Absolutely! You don’t have to wait for your Fake Tattoo to naturally fade. If you’re ready for a new design or simply want it gone, you can remove it whenever you’d like.

For easier removal, gently rub the tattoo with warm, soapy water and a washcloth. You can also use a little baby oil or body oil to help loosen the tattoo.

Wear it your way. Change it whenever you want.

Is it safe for all skin types?

Fake Tattoos are designed to be skin-friendly and suitable for most skin types. However, everyone’s skin is different, especially if you have sensitive skin or known allergies.

If you have sensitive skin, we recommend doing a small patch test first. Apply a small tattoo to a limited area and wait to make sure your skin responds well before applying a larger design.

Gentle on skin. Easy to wear. No needles required.
