This pack includes 12 adorable temporary tattoos that have been lovingly designed to remind you will always be braver, bolder, stronger, and more powerful than you feel. The pack includes:

• 6 x heart tattoos with a space to write the name of the person who has filled your tattoo with hugs. Now you can feel closer to your loved person, even when they can’t be right beside you. (Awww – hugs in a tattoo – so handy!). 
• 6 x warrior tattoos, so you have a bravery buddy reminding you that all the brave you ever need is always there inside you.

Are they safe for kids?

You betcha! The tattoos are printed with non-toxic, cruelty-free, vegetable ink and are safe for kids of all ages. They have been safety tested and are made in the USA.

And what about adults. Are they safe for adults?

Yes! So safe! (Just know you might get distracted for a moment if you catch your tattooed splendour in windows, glass, or other shiny things. Also, enjoy the pep that puts in your step, because peps in steps are LOVELY.)

How do I apply them?

Start with an oil-free area where the skin does not stretch:

1. Make sure skin is clean and dry and clear of sunscreen or lotions.
2. Remove clear top sheet from the tattoo.
3. Press tattoo face down onto the skin.
4. Press wet cloth firmly against the back of the tattoo, making sure it’s thoroughly wet.
5. Wait 30 seconds, then gently peel off the paper backing.
6. Gently pat dry. Now admire your handiwork. (Oh – you are stunning!)
7. If you’ve used the heart tattoo, use a marker to write the name of the person who has filled your heart with hugs. Use as many hugs as you like – they’ll never, ever run out. Like, ever.
8. If you’ve used the warrior tattoo, use it as a reminder that you will always be braver, stronger, more powerful than you feel. Always. And anxiety won’t change that a bit.

I love them. But can I get them off if I need to? Like, you know, if it sends their ‘adorability’ off the charts on a day when the world can’t handle it.

Absolutely! Use a teeny bit of baby oil or lotion right before hopping into the shower or the bath. Rub the tattoo gently with a washcloth and it will get the hint that as much as you might love it, it’s time to go. Easy peasy.

How long will they last?

2-4 days. The tattoos are waterproof, showerproof, and bathproof. Just be sure to pop them on clean skin in an area that doesn’t stretch.

Oh my gosh – hugs in a tattoo are so handy. Do you have one that comes with snacks?

Not yet. But that’s genius! We’re taking notes.
