Temporary tattoos can add flair to your style. They are perfect for special occasions.
You can create a temporary tattoo using special decal paper. Set your printer to the “best quality and glossy” setting for optimal results.
Eyeliner
Eyeliner is used to outline and enhance the eyes. There are various kinds, including liquid, gel, kohl, and pencil eyeliners.
This trick makes your eyes appear larger and more defined.
For beginners, pencil eyeliners are recommended. They offer easy application and control. Pencil lines are less harsh and blend out quickly for a natural look.
Gel pot eyeliners with a small, angled brush are also great for beginners. Even though it might be intimidating at first, it can enhance your eyeliner look.
Hairspray
Hairspray can extend the lifespan of temporary tattoos. Only apply it once the tattoos have set and avoid contact with clothes.
Temporary tattoos generally last for about a month. For optimal results, spray hairspray from 12-16 inches away.
Remember, hairspray contains alcohol, which is not safe for direct consumption. Before applying hairspray, use baby powder to absorb extra skin moisture.
Hairspray like TRESemme Freeze Hold Hairspray provides extra hold and resistance against humidity. It can secure complex hairstyles for a whole day.
Tape
Tape is useful for sealing, binding, or attaching items. It also helps in applying temporary tattoos.
To use tape for temporary tattoos, cut a piece that fully covers your design. Press it down securely.
As your design dries, avoid rubbing or picking at it. After about ten minutes, you can remove the tape.
For a more permanent design, consider using tracing paper. It creates an outline on your skin that you can quickly draw over.
Alcohol
Alcohol has various effects on humans. It can stimulate alertness or cause loss of behavioral control depending on the amount consumed.
University of California, San Diego researchers have developed a temporary tattoo that tracks blood alcohol concentration (BAC). This tattoo can wirelessly send BAC readings to a smartphone or computer.
The researchers hope this tool will help law enforcement and hospitals combat drunk driving. They also believe it can reduce the stigma around alcohol consumption and encourage responsible drinking habits.
