. That way, if you find you don't particularly like the design or you don't like the look of the tattoo on your skin, you can simply wash it off

. Temporary Tattoo Application and Removal Generally, temporary tattoos are simple to apply and painless

. To apply a temporary tattoo, the film with the tattoo design on it is applied to the skin and after a time, the film is pulled away from the skin according to the transfer instructions
