Ordering a Custom Temporary Tattoo For Your Business

Promote your business, entice school spirit, raise money, drive support for a cause; there are many great reasons to get a custom temporary tattoo. While the choice to get a custom temporary tattoo is an easy one, how to order one and what to consider when doing so can be difficult.

Fortunately, this article nails down the 5 elements you need to consider when ordering a custom temporary tattoo. Each element is simple and once you decide upon each you'll be well on your way to custom temporary tattoo success!

5 Elements to Consider When Ordering a Custom Tattoo:

1. The front design
Since the objective behind designing a custom tattoo is to make an impression, you'll want to use your logo or well known symbol. Using a business logo works well for brand building and a well-known symbol is more likely to draw attention and spark interest.

Simple enough; but there are a couple variations you can take advantage of to make your custom tattoos even more successful:

• If you operate a website, incorporate that site's URL on the front of the tattoo with your logo.
• For promoting a cause, start with a well-known symbol (like the pink ribbon or recycling symbol) and add the name of an individual or a meaningful date.

By incorporating your website and taking advantage of a well-known symbol or business logo, you can ensure that you are making the most of every impression your custom temporary tattoos will receive.

2. The back
A little known fact is that the back of the tattoo is just as customizable as the front. Take full advantage of this by including the company address, website and social media information. The majority of promotional, custom temporary tattoos are kept as opposed to worn. People will take them home and throw them on the counter or on a desk or keep them at the office. This turns your custom temporary tattoo into a business card of sorts-but one that stands out.

Information to include on the back of your tattoo:

• Name of your business or organization
• Website URL
• Facebook & Twitter information
• A coupon code or special offer

3. Size
The most popular custom temporary tattoo size is 2"x2". It's small enough that it can be applied and worn easily but large enough to accommodate contact information on the back. Plus, this is just the right size to fit into a wallet or pocket of a purse for easy transport to the home or office.

4. White Effect
When printing a temporary tattoo, there are 3 options regarding white ink: no white, spot white and flood white.

• No White: any areas of the design without color will print without ink, so that the skin shows through those areas
• Spot White: any areas of the design without color will print with white ink, so that that white ink-instead of the skin-shows through those areas
• Flood White: white ink will be printed underneath the entire tattoo, making the colors look more brilliant once transferred to the skin because the layer of white makes the image more opaque

Choosing the white effect for your custom tattoo depends upon your purpose. Do you want the tattoo to be applied to the skin or kept as a promotional product? For the latter, you'll want to go with either spot white or no white because that will look better on the tattoo paper. If it's more important that the tattoo look good once applied, then you want to choose flood white because, even though the tattoo will appear 'milky' on the paper, it will look great on the skin.

Generally, for the purposes of promotional tattoos, no white or spot white is chosen.

5. Quantity
Lastly, you need to determine what quantity you will order. Ordering quality tattoos printed on a press using silk screening technology means a minimum order quantity of 1,000 pieces because of how the machines are set up to run. As with anything else, the more you order, the less expensive each tattoo will be. Most companies offer quantity discounts at 5,000, 10,000, etc. Typically, 1,000 custom temporary tattoos will cost about $90.

So there you have it! The 5 elements to consider when ordering a custom temporary tattoo: design of the front and back, size, white effect and quantity. The custom temporary tattoo is one of the most inexpensive and unique promotional products, and outlining these elements also makes it very easy to order. Get yours today!

Temporary Henna Tattoos

Temporary Henna Tattoos - Creating Beautiful Henna Tattoo Designs
One of the major benefits of using henna tattoos is that they are natural, easy to apply and to remove, and very reasonably priced. As a matter of fact, the absence of chemicals makes henna tattoos a much sought after temporary tattoo in the market today. Besides being one of the best alternatives to permanent colour, the henna tattoo is much in demand for its cosmetic value. These tattoos are ideal for a temporary design for weddings or parties. Once it completely wears off, you could create a new design.
Traditional henna has been in use for decoration and beautification purposes for thousands of years. Its usage was restricted for a long time to the Middle East, Africa, and India. However, in recent times, the concept of temporary tattoos has gained considerable popularity in western countries, particularly the US and the UK. In India and Pakistan, the cultivation of henna was encouraged by the Mughals who used it for beauty and decorative purposes. Henna was also used for its medicinal value. Today, the use of henna tattoos has spread far and wide as its popularity grows.

Guide to Creating Beautiful Henna Tattoos

Henna tattoos are made from the henna paste, which is created from ground henna leaves, mixed with water and other natural ingredients. This paste, when applied to the skin or hair, leaves a colour that could vary from orange to rich mahogany. You don’t need to be a skilled artist for creating a beautiful and long-lasting henna tattoo. With some practice and proper guidance, you can get amazing results for yourself and your friends.
Instead of preparing henna paste, it is advisable to use a tube or pen (Ie henna penna) containing pre-made henna extracts. This would help you during the application process and also ensure strength and consistency. The use of modern pens offers easy and safe application directly onto the skin, and helps in creating beautiful designs quickly and easily. The step by step guide to creating henna tattoos is described below:

Creating Henna Tattoo Designs

Creating henna tattoo designs is one of the most critical parts of creating detailed henna tattoos. It is always advisable to wipe your palms with cotton balls dipped in astringent to remove any form of unwanted body oils. Beginners would be advised to opt for simple designs with thick lines – ideally a design which is not too complicated. You could also use stencils as a guide to create a flawless design. It is always better to ensure the painted henna lines are tri-dimensional (raised) for best results. Once the drawing has been completed, it should be left for drying.

Henna Tattoo Aftercare

After completing the henna tattoo design, you should try to follow certain tips for getting a sharp and long lasting tattoo design. Applying a solution of lemon juice and sugar will help keep the design intact for longer. Use of heat or a hair dryer to warm the henna tattoo would give you a great and deeper colour. Applying olive or eucalyptus oil just after drying will yield a further intense colour effect. You should try to make sure the tattooed area does not come in contact with water for at least eight to twelve hours.

Henna tattoos are absolutely natural and do not cause any harm to the skin at all. So, don’t wait! Try henna tattoos to adorn yourself with a beautiful temporary tattoo design. If you wish to purchase quality henna tattoos with long-lasting results,
