It’s built to produce sharp colors and crisp edges so your tattoos look professional without a studio visit.

How do I print and prepare my custom tattoo designs?

Design your tattoo in any image editor or use ready-made graphics, then print on the glossy side of the MECOLOUR sheet with an inkjet printer. After printing, let the ink dry thoroughly, use a hairdryer for faster drying, and then laminate according to the included instructions for a durable finish.

• Print on the glossy side only for optimal color and adhesion.
• Dry printed sheets with a hairdryer before laminating to prevent smudging.
• Trim around designs to reduce visible edges after application.
• Follow the pack instructions for consistent rub-on results.

How do I apply MECOLOUR temporary tattoos so they look realistic?

Application is a quick rub-on process: peel off the backing, place the tattoo face-down on clean skin, wet the paper thoroughly, then press and remove the paper to reveal the image. Smooth edges and gently pat the tattoo to set it; avoid oil or heavy lotions beforehand for best adhesion.

• Apply only to dry, clean skin free of oils or creams.
• Use a damp cloth or sponge to activate the transfer paper fully.
• Press firmly and wait before lifting the paper to avoid tearing.
• Finish by patting dry; avoid friction for the first few minutes.

What’s the safest way to remove the temporary tattoo?

Removal depends on skin sensitivity: for normal skin, an alcohol-soaked cotton pad removes most tattoos quickly. For children or sensitive areas, use gentle oils such as baby oil, olive oil, or coconut oil, leave it for a few minutes, then massage and rinse to lift the decal without irritation.

• Normal skin: wipe gently with alcohol on a cotton pad.
• Sensitive skin/children: apply baby or olive oil, wait three minutes, then massage off.
• Rinse and moisturize after removal to soothe skin.
• Avoid using on broken or inflamed skin.
