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.

Heart tattoo with letter: the most personal love symbol
A heart tattoo with a letter or initial is one of the most requested designs in studios. It combines two powerful symbols: the heart, universally associated with love and emotion, and an initial that represents a person, a name or a memory. The result is an intimate, recognisable design that tells a story without a single word.
The 5 x 5 cm format of this InkToday temporary tattoo faithfully reproduces the proportions of a small studio tattoo. The line work stays sharp and clear on all skin tones, worn alone or combined with other designs.
Where to place a heart tattoo with initial?
The most popular placements for a heart tattoo with a letter are the inner wrist, ankle, collarbone and inner elbow. These areas offer a flat surface that shows the design clearly without being too bold. The 5 x 5 cm format works perfectly for all these spots.
The wrist is the top choice: hidden under long sleeves, visible the moment you raise your hand. The ankle is ideal for summer. The collarbone gives a delicate effect that photographs beautifully. The inner elbow, less expected, creates a modern graphic look.
Temporary heart initial tattoo: test before committing
Many people want a heart tattoo with an initial but are unsure about the placement, size or line style. A temporary tattoo lets you live with the design for 10 to 14 days in real everyday conditions: showers, sport, clothing, natural light. It is the only way to know for certain whether the tattoo suits you before making a permanent decision.
InkToday plant-based ink replicates the look of a real black tattoo. Application takes under a minute with a damp cloth. Removal is painless with coconut or olive oil.
Frequently asked questions about heart tattoos with letters
What does a heart tattoo mean?
A heart tattoo symbolises love in all its forms: romantic love, family affection, deep friendship or self-love. Combined with an initial, it becomes a personal tribute to a specific person or a value that matters to you. It is one of the most symbolically rich motifs in the history of tattooing.
Where should I place a heart tattoo?
The most popular placements for a heart tattoo are the inner wrist, collarbone, ankle and inner elbow. For a 5 x 5 cm design like this one, the wrist and collarbone give the best visual result. The back and shoulder suit larger formats better.
What tattoo best symbolises love?
A heart with an initial is one of the most chosen love symbols in studios, alongside the infinity sign, intertwined rings and initials alone. It is valued for its immediate readability and its ability to point to a specific person while remaining graphically clean.
Where should I get a letter tattooed?
A single initial works well on the inner forearm, fingers, collarbone or behind the ear. Set inside a heart, it finds its natural place on the wrist or ankle, areas that show compact designs clearly and keep them visible every day.
How much does a heart tattoo cost at a studio?
A small heart tattoo at a studio costs between 30 and 80 euros depending on the studio, location and design complexity. A motif with an initial around 5 cm usually falls between 50 and 80 euros. The InkToday temporary tattoo lets you test the same design for 12 euros, with no commitment, for 10 to 14 days.
Does a temporary tattoo really last 10 to 14 days?
Yes, as long as you follow a few simple rules: avoid rubbing the area when washing, do not apply oily creams on top, and pat dry. On clean, dry skin, InkToday plant-based ink lasts 10 to 14 days with a sharp finish. Duration varies depending on the body area and how often it is exposed to water.
