What's in the kit?
Every InkToday tattoo ships in its protective sleeve, with an application guide to help you put it on.
How do I apply my tattoo?
Our tattoos are painless and very easy to apply yourself – it only takes a few simple steps.
Follow the application guide supplied with your tattoo, or watch our video tutorial here.
Once applied, the ink reacts with the proteins and the keratin in your skin, and darkens within 24 to 36 hours.
Your tattoo then stays visible for 10 to 14 days depending on where you apply it on your body, before fading away naturally.
Colour and appearance
Unlike most temporary tattoos, INKTODAY ink bonds to the surface of your skin instead of simply sitting on top of it.
Once applied, the ink reacts with the proteins and the keratin in your skin, and darkens within 24 to 36 hours.
The final result looks like a real tattoo, in a deep blue-black colour.
How long does the tattoo last?
INKTODAY tattoos are designed to fade within 10 to 14 days.
How long they last depends on where you apply them, on your daily activities and on how hydrated your skin is.
The ink fades gradually as your skin renews itself naturally.
Here is an estimate of how long they hold, area by area:
🦵 Leg: day 1 to 5 (very dark colour), then day 6 to 12 (colour fading).
🦶 Foot: day 1 to 8 (very dark colour), then day 9 to 14 (colour fading).
🦵 Knee: day 1 to 6 (very dark colour), then day 7 to 12 (colour fading).
💪 Forearm: day 1 to 6 (very dark colour), then day 7 to 12 (colour fading).
💪 Shoulder: day 1 to 7 (very dark colour), then day 8 to 14 (colour fading).
💪 Upper arm: day 1 to 7 (very dark colour), then day 8 to 14 (colour fading).
✋ Hand: day 1 to 4 (very dark colour), then day 5 to 8 (colour fading).

Temporary ocean tattoo: wear the sea spirit with zero commitment
Ocean tattoos are among the most requested designs in France and across Europe, from Hokusai waves to minimalist whales, floating jellyfish and marine anchors. What holds many people back is the permanence question: a real tattoo is painful, irreversible and keeps you out of the water for three to four weeks while it heals. A temporary ocean tattoo solves all of that at once.
This pack of 2 ocean designs lets you test two different motifs (placement, size, how they look on your skin tone) before making any permanent decision. Think of it as a test-drive for your body: wear them for 10 to 14 days, go to the beach, see how you feel, then decide with full information.
Meaning and history of ocean tattoo motifs
Marine tattoos have a history spanning centuries. Sailors of the 18th and 19th centuries wore anchors for stability, waves for the power of the sea they crossed, and sailing ships to mark great voyages. Today these symbols have moved far beyond the maritime world. Hokusai's Great Wave is one of the most recognised images on the planet. Whales and jellyfish carry values of freedom and depth. Starfish and coral speak to a love of nature, travel and summer.
Wearing an ocean tattoo in temporary form is also a way to find out whether a given symbol truly fits you: over time, not just in the mirror on day one.
Where to place a temporary ocean tattoo
The most popular placements for ocean motifs:
- Wrist or forearm: visible every day, ideal for fine designs like a minimalist wave or anchor
- Shoulder or shoulder blade: great for larger motifs like a whale or octopus
- Ankle or calf: a summer classic, very visible at the beach
- Ribcage: elegant placement for a long, discreet motif
With a pack of 2 designs, you can test two placements at the same time and see which works best for you.
When to wear a temporary ocean tattoo
Temporary ocean tattoos peak in demand around a handful of specific occasions: summer holidays by the sea, music festivals, bachelorette parties (EVJF), beach weddings, and gifts for surfers or divers. This pack is designed for all of these moments: compact, easy to gift, and realistic enough for photos that last.
Price of a temporary ocean tattoo
Temporary tattoo prices in France vary from a basic single motif to a premium multi-design set. This InkToday pack of 2 is positioned in the mid-range with one of the best finish-to-price ratios in its category. For comparison, an equivalent permanent tattoo costs far more depending on the artist and design complexity.
Care and wear time
A quality temporary tattoo lasts 10 to 14 days depending on placement and aftercare. To maximise longevity:
- Apply on clean, dry skin: no moisturiser beforehand
- Avoid rubbing the area when showering
- Avoid high-friction zones (inner elbow, knuckles)
- To remove, apply vegetable oil and rub gently: no residue
The vegan ink used meets current EU cosmetic standards. No black henna components: black henna (PPD) is responsible for the vast majority of skin reaction cases reported by European consumer safety authorities.
FAQ
How long does a temporary tattoo last?
A quality temporary tattoo lasts 10 to 14 days. Duration varies by placement (high-friction areas fade faster) and how you care for it.
How much does a temporary tattoo cost?
Prices vary depending on format and brand. This InkToday 2-pack is the price of a trial, not a regret.
Are temporary tattoos waterproof?
Yes. These tattoos are waterproof and resist the shower, pool and sea. Unlike a fresh permanent tattoo that requires 3-4 weeks out of the water, you can swim the day after application.
What does an ocean tattoo mean?
Ocean tattoos symbolise freedom, the vastness of possibility, and a connection to water and nature. Waves represent perpetual movement and power, anchors represent stability, whales represent depth and serenity.
Are temporary tattoos safe for sensitive skin?
Vegan ink temporary tattoos that meet EU standards carry very low risk. The main danger comes from black henna (PPD), which is absent from this formulation. If you have very sensitive skin, test on a small area 24 hours before full application.
How do I remove a temporary tattoo?
Apply vegetable oil or baby oil to the design, wait 30 seconds, then rub gently with a soft cloth. The motif lifts cleanly with no residue or skin irritation.
