How to temporarily conceal your tattoo
Have you ever needed or wanted to temporarily conceal your tattoo for a special occasion and had no idea how to do it?
If you’re able to reach your tattoo, you’ll be able to do the trick on yourself. If your tattoo is located on your back or other places that you cannot possibly reach, I’m sure you can find a friend or relative that can help you out. You only need a few items and products to do the trick... it’s painless and quick. In fact, it should only take you about 5 minutes or so and I’ll teach you exactly what to do. It might take you a couple of practice sessions to get it to look flawless though, but you’ll get it...
List of products you’ll need:
Kryolan Tattoo Cover (or you can also use Dermablend, Cover FX or Cinema Secrets Concealer instead) either of these products will work great because they have excellent pigment. You can also use these products to temporarily conceal any types of skin imperfections such as scars, acne, and skin discolorations. Choose the one that best matches your skin tone.
Concealer brush: You can choose either a small or larger brush; choose one depending on the size of your tattoo.
A foundation that matches your skin tone & a clean sponge
Translucent powder & powder puff
Begin: Using your concealer brush, gently start applying & tapping the tattoo coverage right onto your tattoo. You might need to apply quite a bit on. Once you’re done, pour some of your foundation onto your clean sponge and start dabbing it right over top of your concealed tattoo.
To complete the process, use some of the translucent powder on your powder puff and apply right overtop. This will make set the makeup and keep it looking matte.
And voila! You’re done!
