Minimalist Heartbeat Tattoo – Temporary, 4.7 x 0.7 in
Minimalist Heartbeat Tattoo – Temporary, 4.7 x 0.7 in
Made for you · lasts 10–14 days
Thinking about a heartbeat line tattoo? This realistic one looks like real ink and lasts 10–14 days, so you can wear it first: a heartbeat line that beats once, draws two snowy mountain peaks, then a tilted heart, and fades into three dots, that develops on your skin, then fades on its own.
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.

Why try it before the real one
- See if 4.7 x 0.7 in is the right size where you want it (inner forearm, wrist…).
- Watch how it looks on your skin, day after day.
- Love it? Show it to your tattoo artist. Not sure? Try another design next month.
What a heartbeat line tattoo means
A heartbeat line is often linked to life, love and the things that make your heart race. With mountains in it, it is commonly read as a love for the outdoors and adventure.
How to apply
- Clean and dry the skin.
- Press the tattoo on firmly.
- Peel off the backing.
- Let it develop: the ink darkens over 24–36 hours.
InkToday makes plant-based semi-permanent tattoos that develop on the skin over 24–36 hours, look like real ink and last 10–14 days, so you can try a tattoo design before getting it for real.
FAQ
Does it look real?
Yes. The plant-based ink develops on your skin over 24–36 hours and turns dark, like a fresh tattoo. No shine, no sticker edge.
How long does it last?
10 to 14 days on most of the body, 7 to 10 days on fingers, then it fades on its own.
Can I use it to decide on a real tattoo?
That is the idea: test the heartbeat line design, its size and its placement for two weeks before you book.
When will I receive it?
It is made for you after you order, then shipped to you.
