For how many days do they last?

Unlike face painting that lasts for a day, temporary glitter tattoos would last for upto 5-7 days. Some kids who are fond of tattoos keep it for a month too. The life of the tattoo would depend on the area of the body part it is put on. If the friction is higher on that part of the body, it would come off soon. The type of the skin also plays a major role in determining the number of days it would stay on.

Glitter tattoos are water-proof and so, the child can swim or bathe regularly without the tattoo being washed off. When the kid steps out of the pool, you can instruct him/her to pat dry instead of rubbing. Ask the child not to use soap on that area of the body.

Is it safe to use glitter tattoos?

You do not need to worry about the side effects of tattoos because the glitter tattoo kits have gentle and non-toxic glue that is specifically made for the skin. It should not be used on the skin that is bruised, cut or irritated. The glue is safe, but you should prevent it from entering your eyes.

Temporary glitter tattoos are safe for all the age groups. They are safe for the kids above the age of 3.

How to apply the tattoos?

Before applying the tattoo, you should clean the skin and let it dry. You can choose the design of the tattoo and remove the adhesive part of the glitter stencil. Place it on the skin area which you cleaned and apply a thin layer of glue. Wait for a minute or two till the glue dries. You can also add some more glitter to it if you want. Remove excess glue and show it off!
