Remember those temporary Tattoo’s you used to get when you were a kid? Time to have them enter the digital age. You can now order special inkjet tattoo paper that will let you create your own design.

Once it is printed you apply an adhesive sheet to the printout and smooth out any bubbles. When you remove the adhesive sheet, the printed tattoo will be left with a sticky surface allowing it to be applied to your skin with a wet sponge. The tattoos are water-based and non-toxic, so while they’ll stick around for about a week if you avoid bathing or showering, they can easily be removed with just soap and water.

A 5 pack of the paper is available for about $25.

  2. This is one of the coolest things ever. Coming from a guy that has many tattoos, and loves tattoos, and wants more tattoos, I can wait wait to get this and give myself a whole bunch of dumb temporary tattoos.
