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 shark fin tattoo: test the placement before going permanent
A dorsal shark fin tattoo is one of the most requested ocean motifs for testing a body placement. The clean lines and instantly recognizable silhouette work equally well as a minimalist wrist piece or a bolder forearm or ankle statement.
The InkToday temporary shark fin tattoo measures 5 x 5 cm, calibrated for the most popular placements: wrist, forearm, shoulder, ankle, nape. The vegan ink meets EU cosmetic regulations, with no black henna and no paraphenylenediamine (PPD).
Why try a temporary shark tattoo before going permanent?
A professional shark tattoo in France typically costs between €60 and €200 depending on size and detail. At €10, this temporary version lets you wear the design for 10 to 14 days on your real skin, in your real life, before making that call. You validate the size, placement and visual impact, no surprises on the day.
Best occasions for a temporary shark fin tattoo
This design works year-round but shines for a beach or surf trip, a summer festival, a bachelorette or bachelor weekend, a photo shoot or social content day, a nautical-themed party or event. The waterproof hold for 10 to 14 days means it survives pool, beach and shower without peeling.
How to apply a temporary shark fin tattoo?
Apply in 5 minutes: clean and dry the area, place the design printed-side down on skin, wet the paper backing with a damp cloth, hold for 30 seconds, peel away gently. Hold time is 10 to 14 days depending on placement (high-friction or high-flex areas last slightly less) and skin type.
