Step 1: Prepare your skin 

Clean and dry the area where you want to place your tattoo. Avoid oils or lotions. 

Step 2: Prepare a wet cloth

Soak a clean cloth in water and squeeze out the excess. 

 

Step 3: Remove packaging

Take the tattoo our of its plastic packaging. 

Step 4: Turn tattoo to show the back and remove film

Turn tattoo to remove transparent film. The back (light-print image) contains the active ingredient that will stain your skin.

Step 4: Place your tattoo

Position the tattoo so the light-printed side touches your skin. The dark design should face up. Press lightly into place. Once it sticks avoid moving it! 

Step 5: Apply wet cloth

Press the damp cloth firmly onto the tattoo for 30 seconds. Keep it still to prevent smudging. 

Step 6: Peel and dry

Gently remove the cloth and then the paper backing. You'll see a faint imagine on your skin - this is normal. Let the magic happen in the next 12-48 hours! 

Step 7: Watch it develop

The tattoo will darken over 12-48 hours. Avoid washing or touching the area for at least 5 hours. Pro tip: A warm shower on day one can help deepen the color. 

Step 8: Enjoy !

Show off your tattoo and get ready for compliments.
