MORE: Skin Art Temporary Tattoo Kits

As promised, here are some more tattoos from the Skin Art Temporary Tattoo kits. There aren't many but that's because I've been working with my dad and I don't want to waste them. But when I'm back to university (especially during freshers) you'll be seeing a lot more of them.
The bird on the left is on the foot and that is from the Love is Enough kit. And on the right, the word Imagine is on the wrist and that's from the I'm a Dreamer kit.You can see my original, full review of these temporary tattoos here.
Have you tried these tattoos yet? Will you be doing?

REVIEW: Skin Art Temporary Tattoo Kits

I was recently sent three sets of the new Skin Art Temporary Tattoos which I was so excited about. I've always wanted a tattoo but I can't because my family don't really agree with them and I'm very scared of the pain. But I think they're lovely ways to express yourself. So temporary tattoos are perfect as a pain-free and commitment way to have a tattoo.
 I was sent the sets in 'I'm a Dreamer,' 'In Your Own Words' and 'Love is Enough.' All three kits retail for £7.99 and you receive 3 sheets of temporary tattoos. Skin Art also do a Glitter Tattoo Kit which retails for £11.99.
 Here are what the sheets look like. This is from the I'm a Dreamer kit and as you can see it includes feathers, dandelions and stars. Very whimsical and classy. All you have to do is cut out the tattoo that you'd like, remove the plastic backing and place the design down on the skin. You then dampen the tattoo with water and hold firmly for around 60 seconds. After this, carefully peel the paper off and there you'll see your tattoo!
Here you can see all of the designs that are included in the kits. From left to right is the Love is Enough kit, I'm a Dreamer kit and In Your Own Words kit.
This is the tattoo design that I went for. I used the 'believe' from the 'In Your Words' kit and the bird from the 'Love is Enough' kit. I'm actually a little bit annoyed because I really love this tattoo and I actually want to get it done for real haha! But I'd had this tattoo on my wrist for 3 days before it started to show any sign of wear. And the only reason that it ended up wearing off is because I had to cover it up with my watch for work which unfortunately rubbed off. The tattoos state that they can last up to 5 days depending on where it is applied and what your skin type is. I found these really easy to apply and this whole tattoo took me just 2 minutes to apply which is amazing. And the best thing? Completely pain free ;). Over time, I'll be posting more temporary tattoo designs that I wear. I might make it a monthly feature or something as I've really fell in love with these temporary tattoos and when they run out I'll definitely be picking more up!
What do you think about these? Have you seen them before? Will you be buying some?
