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).

InkToday ink: how we designed it
We developed our InkToday formula drawing on the natural, ancestral practices of tribes who used plant sap to mark their skin.
Our unique formula lets our INKTODAY tattoos last longer while giving a deeper, blacker colour.
Water-resistant and incredibly realistic, our tattoos offer an authentic, long-lasting experience.

What does an intertwined hands tattoo mean?
An intertwined hands tattoo symbolizes a strong bond between two people, whether romantic, friendly or familial. Hands joined together represent loyalty, mutual support and a shared journey. It is one of the most popular matching tattoo designs chosen by couples, close friends or sisters.
Beyond couples, this design is also a way to celebrate a lasting friendship or pay tribute to someone close. It is often worn in a fine, minimalist style to stay discreet while remaining very clear to read.
Why choose a temporary intertwined hands tattoo before going permanent?
A tattoo on the hand or wrist is a visible placement that is hard to hide. Before committing, wearing the design for 10 to 14 days allows you to check that the design, size and position truly match what you had in mind. It is a useful step to avoid regrets with a permanent tattoo.
The 5 x 5 cm format of this intertwined hands tattoo is ideal for testing placement on the wrist, inner forearm or ankle before booking an appointment with a tattoo artist.
How to apply and care for your intertwined hands tattoo for the best wear?
Application is quick: dampen the tattoo with the printed side against the skin, hold firm pressure for 30 seconds, then carefully remove the backing. The tattoo is immediately visible and dries within minutes. To extend wear up to 14 days, avoid rubbing the area and limit contact with oily or alcohol-based products.
The tattoo fades gradually and naturally without leaving a mark. A little oil or a gentle scrub is enough to speed up removal if needed.
Frequently asked questions about the intertwined hands tattoo
What do intertwined hands symbolize in a tattoo?
Intertwined hands in a tattoo represent union, loyalty and a strong bond between two people. This design is often chosen to celebrate a romantic relationship, a deep friendship or a family bond. It visually expresses the idea of mutual support and a shared path.
Is the intertwined hands tattoo suitable for a matching tattoo with someone?
Yes, that is precisely the most popular use of this design. Two people each wear the same intertwined hands tattoo, side by side or on symmetrical areas. In temporary form, it is a way to mark a meaningful moment, a trip or a shared event without a permanent commitment.
How long does this temporary intertwined hands tattoo last?
The tattoo lasts 10 to 14 days depending on the chosen placement and the wearer's habits. Areas with less friction, such as the inner arm or ankle, generally offer better wear. Avoiding alcohol-based products and scrubbing extends the tattoo's lifespan.
What is the size of the InkToday intertwined hands tattoo?
The tattoo measures 5 x 5 cm. This format is compact and versatile: it fits well on the wrist, inner forearm, ankle or behind the ear. The size allows the design to be read clearly while remaining discreet in everyday life.
Is the ink safe for the skin?
The ink used is plant-based, paraben-free and formulated to respect sensitive skin. It does not contain paraphenylenediamine (PPD), the substance responsible for frequent allergic reactions with some temporary tattoos on the market. If in doubt, test on a small area before full application.
Can the tattoo be removed before it fades naturally?
Yes. A gentle scrub or applying oil (olive oil, baby oil) to the tattooed area speeds up removal. Rubbing gently with a washcloth after a few minutes is usually enough to make the tattoo disappear. The skin leaves no trace after removal.
