I know how tempting tattoos are, but sometimes you may regret getting them. They seem awesome once you get them, but that may fade as you get older. Besides henna tattoos I have an alternative...Sun Tattoos. They won't wash off, last for weeks and aren't permanent! make cut outs and shapes for a design you like and put some low spf on for a while. later voila! Sun tattoo. here's one I love.

Is it supposed to be before and after? Because the pattern isn't the same...

Love real tattoos. I've had a few of mine for a while and don't regret them. In fact I don't really notice them.

Definitely interesting. but there are a few things that don't stack up with this project. first, the models tattoo is significantly darker than her skin, that seems quite dangerous/unhealthy. also, if you wore a shirt like that (as opposed to the stickers already available in smaller sizes), you would have to lay completely still and get it dark in one go. you can't shift around and you can't risk getting the pattern exactly right everytime. even in the pic the shirt is peeling and wrinkling, it would prolly turn into a hot (haha) mess.

might work with a tighter shirt (or stickers/stencils), but even then...

cool idea though. I have a friend who used to put stickers on her hip when she tanned, I bet she would like this.

So sun tattoos are technically just tanning...or am I wrong?

Sun tattoos are tanning.

So its a use at your own risk. the models skin is darker in the tattoo are because it is a tan.

Its a delicate process, so yeah wearing the shirt and not moving is a requirement.

To me it looks like she spent too long in front of a wrought-iron fence. Sorry, but it just looks tacky to me.

@dee- well duh lol. I know *why* the skin the darker :P

what I meant is, its wayyyyyy too dark. when you consider how fair she is, that tan would take months to accomplish.

@emily w.- now that you've said that, its all can see (O_O)
