Glitter tattoos have become an increasingly popular form of temporary body art for both kids and adults. If you’ve ever wondered what glitter tattoos are all about, let us introduce you to the dazzling world of this unique art form.
The Magic of Glitter Tattoos
Glitter tattoos are created by using a stencil template design, body glue, and sparkly colored glitters. These stunning temporary tattoos are perfect for anyone who loves tattoos and wants to add a touch of sparkle to their look. At TKTX Numbing Cream Store, we have been trading for 12 years and specialize in providing high-quality glitter tattoos and temporary body art products.
The Process
Glitter tattoos are applied to the skin using body-safe adhesive, a stencil template, and cosmetic-grade glitter. The stencil design is placed on clean, unbroken skin, and the body glue is applied on top of the stencil. Once the glue is applied, loose cosmetic glitter can be gently brushed onto the glue, creating a vibrant and shimmery tattoo. The tattoo remains on the skin for up to 7 days and can be a stunning addition to any event or occasion.
Frequently Asked Questions
What type of Body Adhesive do you use for Glitter Tattoos?
For glitter tattoos, it’s crucial to use body-safe glue that is suitable for use on the skin. At TKTX Numbing Cream Store, we offer our own glue brand called Body Glue Plus. Our glue is white in color and comes in various forms of packaging, ranging from small wands to larger bottles for professional use.
How are Glitter Tattoos Applied to the skin?
Glitter Body Art’s temporary tattoo stencils are black in color and come as triple-layer stencils. The top layer is clear, while the middle layer is the black stencil part. To apply the stencil, first ensure the skin area is clean and free from any oily substances. Peel off the backing card from the black stencil and stick the stencil onto the clean skin. You will be able to see the skin area through the design.
How do you apply Body Glue?
Apply the Body Glue Plus sparingly over the skin area and work the glue from the outside edge into the middle. It’s essential to avoid applying too much glue or placing it in the wrong direction, as it can affect the final result of the tattoo.
How do you apply glitter to a stencil?
You can apply loose cosmetic glitter using a jar or a puffer bottle for easy application. Use a small brush to direct the glitter onto the appropriate areas of the stencil. The more colors of glitter you use, the more vibrant and eye-catching the glitter tattoo will be. Make sure all areas of the skin are covered sufficiently, and if there are any gaps, simply apply more body glue and glitter.
How long does a Glitter Tattoo last on the skin?
When applied correctly, glitter tattoos can last up to 7 days on the skin. To ensure the longevity of your tattoo, avoid excessive exposure to water and gently dry the tattoo if it becomes wet. Try not to rub the tattoo, as it may cause it to break up and come off the skin. Also, refrain from applying anything over the glitter tattoo, as it can dull the glitter color.
How do you remove a Glitter Tattoos?
To remove a glitter tattoo, we recommend using baby oil or a high-quality makeup remover on a cotton pad. Gently rub the tattoo in circular motions to remove it without causing any abrasions to the skin. Please note that glitter tattoos do not simply wash off with water alone.
Can you put a Glitter Tattoo on the Face?
While glitter products have gained popularity for face use, we recommend using our Make Up Glitter Fix or Festival Makeup Gel for face applications. These products are gentler on the skin and easier to remove. They can last several hours but can be easily removed with warm soap and water or a facial wet wipe.
Why do you have to use Cosmetic Glitter for a temporary tattoo?
Cosmetic grade glitter is essential for creating glitter tattoos, as it is certified and cosmetically approved for use on the skin. Avoid using craft glitter, as it may contain glass or other harmful materials. At TKTX Numbing Cream Store, we offer a range of polyester glitter, holographic glitter, iridescent glitter, and standard colors, all of which are safe for use on the skin. We also have a selection of biodegradable glitter, also known as eco-glitter, for those who prefer an environmentally friendly option.
