People are Wearing Floral Watercolors as Temporary Tattoos

Nowadays, there are plenty of options for people who want to rock beautiful body art but aren't ready to commit to a permanent tattoo. Tattly has helped revolutionize the temporary tattoo industry by creating gorgeous designs that'll adorn your skin for up to a week. One of their latest sets features temporary watercolor tattoos that, when worn, look as though they could be the real thing. Called In Bloom, the series features colorful florals that have the same carefree fluidity that's a staple of this popular tattoo style. Luckily, it's without all the pain typically involved.

Tattly collaborated with artist Helen Dealtry on this artsy set, and she translated her gorgeous hand-painted blooms—normally reserved for textiles—into four distinct arrangements. You can build a bouquet using packs of the Purple Orchid, Blue Orchid, Festive Floral, or Vibrant Rose. Individually, these designs look great on your skin, but wearing more than one type of flower will create statement-making body art and tell the world you're excited about spring.

The In Bloom set is now available on the Tattly website. And if you're looking for a little glitz, be sure to check out their gold temporary tattoos.

Do you want to rock gorgeous body art without the lifelong commitment? Tattly has you covered.
