"Reflect" Script Tattoo
"Reflect" Script Tattoo
Test-drive a real lettering tattoo for 10 to 14 days on your skin before committing for life. That's the idea behind the Reflect Temporary Writing Tattoo: live the real experience, no needle, no pain, no commitment.
- Slim and discreet size (1 x 5 cm): perfect for the wrist, neck, ankle or inner arm, exactly where you picture your future permanent tattoo.

- Vegan ink, zero black henna, EU-compliant: no risk of eczema or skin reaction. Sensitive skin welcome.
- 5-minute application: moisten, press, peel the paper off. No appointment, no studio, from just €10 instead of €60-200 for a permanent tattoo you might regret.

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.

Temporary writing tattoo: test before committing for life
A temporary writing tattoo like the Reflect lets you wear a word, a phrase or an initial for 10 to 14 days on real skin, no needle and no studio appointment. The concept works like a premium transfer tattoo: the ink bonds to the surface of the epidermis, resists water and fades naturally within 10 to 14 days.
The 1 x 5 cm format is designed for signature placements: wrist, neck, collarbone, ankle or inner arm. Those are exactly the spots where most people hesitate before going permanent. With a temporary writing tattoo from just €10, you test the real look on your own skin before deciding. The price of a try, not a regret.
Perfect occasions for a temporary lettering tattoo
Temporary writing tattoos work beautifully for a festival (discreet and waterproof), a bachelorette party (personalised with zero commitment), a trip (a keepsake worn on the skin), an original gift under €15 or a wedding where you want a tattoo detail without permanence. They also suit anyone who wants to simulate a future permanent tattoo on their preferred placement.
Safety and composition: what you need to know
The vegan ink used is EU-compliant and contains zero black henna (PPD), the compound behind severe allergic reactions flagged by European consumer safety authorities. The result: no eczema risk, sensitive skin accepted. Application takes under 5 minutes and requires no special tools.
FAQ temporary writing tattoo
How much does a temporary writing tattoo cost?
The Reflect Temporary Writing Tattoo starts at €10, well below the €60-200 charged by a professional tattoo artist for an equivalent permanent piece.
How long does a temporary writing tattoo last?
Hold is 10 to 14 days depending on skin type and placement. Low-friction zones (neck, collarbone, ankle) last longer than hands or fingers.
Does a temporary tattoo hurt?
No. Unlike a permanent tattoo, no needle is involved. Application is a simple wet-press on the skin with zero discomfort.
How do you apply a temporary writing tattoo?
Moisten the chosen skin area, press the tattoo face-down, hold a damp cloth on it for 30 seconds, then carefully peel the backing paper away. The design appears instantly.
Are there any risks with temporary tattoos?
The only documented risks relate to products containing black henna (PPD). InkToday tattoos use vegan, PPD-free ink that meets EU standards, eliminating that risk entirely.
How do you remove a temporary tattoo before it fades naturally?
A small amount of oil (olive oil or an oil-based makeup remover) on the tattooed area removes it in under 30 seconds without scrubbing.
