ENDING THE TEMPORARY TATTOO 'JUST FOR KIDS' TABOO! WE ARE ALL GROWN UP OVER HERE!

Updated: Nov 1

WATER TRANSFER TATTOOS: TIME TO BREAK THE BUBBLE GUM TABOO


Let’s take a trip down memory lane. Remember those water transfer tattoos we had as kids? You’d peel the sticky paper, press it to your skin with what felt like gallons of water, and after five minutes, you’d be proudly wearing a patchy, half-faded cartoon that peeled off by dinnertime. Yeah, we remember those too.


A family gathered around a breakfast table. The child is eagerly looking into a cereal box, while temporary tattoo sheets featuring colorful designs are scattered on the table. The scene is warm and nostalgic, with the parents smiling at the child’s excitement.

But guess what? InkBound Custom Temporary Tattoos aren’t like that.


Somehow, the stigma stuck around—people still hear “temporary tattoos” and think of those flaky stickers from childhood. But here’s the deal: the world has moved on, and so have temporary tattoos. They’re no longer just for kids and certainly not confined to cereal boxes. Let’s talk about why it’s time to ditch the bubblegum mindset and discover the world of professional temporary tattoos.

FIRST THINGS FIRST: NOT CHILD’S PLAY ANYMORE


We get it. The words “water transfer tattoo” might bring back memories of peeling off half a pirate ship from your arm while the rest crumbled to the floor. It wasn’t pretty. But times have changed, and so have tattoos. Today, InkBound Custom Temporary Tattoos are designed for adults—and not just any adults. We’re talking tattoo lovers who want to experiment before committing to lifelong ink, marathoners who proudly wear their cause, and businesses using temporary tattoos to make a real impact at events.



Temporary tattoos are now tools for creative expression, not just nostalgic laughs.


TRY BEFORE YOU INK: THE TATTOO TOOL YOU DIDN’T KNOW YOU NEEDED


Here’s something for all you ink enthusiasts. Ever wanted to try a design, but weren’t sure if you’d love it forever? InkBound Custom Temporary Tattoos are your best friend for tattoo experimentation. Think of our tattoos like a fitting room for your skin—test out a design, see how it looks, and wear it for a few days. Want to move that dragon from your forearm to your shoulder? Go for it.


These aren’t your cousin’s superhero stickers; they’re detailed, full-colour, and here’s the best part—they can last up to 10 days (with proper care, of course!). So, when someone asks, “Why get a temporary tattoo?” you can confidently say, “Because I want to make smart choices with my skin.”



THE SECRET WEAPON FOR EVENTS AND CAUSES


Now, let’s talk about the serious side of temporary tattoos. InkBound Custom Temporary Tattoos aren’t just for pre-ink trials; they’re also making waves at corporate events, fundraisers, marathons, and big public gatherings. Think of the impact when hundreds of people wear a logo or message on their skin. It’s more personal (and way cooler) than handing out a flyer that ends up in someone’s pocket.


We’re not selling cheap stickers; we’re offering temporary tattoos that people actually want to wear and remember.



DITCH THE STIGMA: TEMPORARY TATTOOS ARE SERIOUS BUSINESS (AND FUN!)


Let’s face it—somewhere along the way, temporary tattoos got an undeserved reputation. But InkBound Custom Temporary Tattoos are here to change that. No, they won’t dye your skin, but that’s not the point. They offer flexibility, creativity, and the freedom to play with designs in ways permanent ink can’t.


Our tattoos are not about childhood gimmicks; they’re about adults, businesses, and creatives showcasing something meaningful without the lifelong commitment.



HOW TO PROPERLY APPLY YOUR TEMPORARY TATTOO


Now, a bit of guidance for those thinking temporary tattoos aren’t durable: InkBound Custom Temporary Tattoos are professional-grade, but like anything good, they need a bit of care. Forget the slap-on method from childhood. If you don’t apply them right, they won’t last.


Here’s what to remember:


  1. After peeling off the backing paper you must rinse off the adhesive residue properly with the wet cloth. Leaving it on means your tattoo will dry sticky making your tattoo a lint magnet, and it won’t last long.

  2. Follow the instructions carefully. These tattoos are used in film and theatre—they’re designed to stick and to last, but only if applied correctly.

  3. Avoid rubbing or exposing your tattoo to oils or excessive moisture. Let it settle in for the first few hours, and it’ll stay put longer.


The point is, these are high-quality tattoos that deserve proper care. Treat them right, and they’ll stick with you for days.



IT’S TIME TO LEAVE THE TABOO BEHIND


If you’re still associating temporary tattoos with cheap, flaky throwaways from childhood, you’re missing out. InkBound Custom Temporary Tattoos aren’t just temporary fun—they’re a creative tool for self-expression, testing designs, branding, and so much more.


So next time someone tells you temporary tattoos aren’t for adults, tell them to think again. We’re changing the game, one tattoo at a time.
