The design looks better than I expected. It took about 8 days longer than expected for delivery but that could be my local post office's fault. The instructions for application included using two prod... See more

Ive liked these in the past but last order went downhill. They lost my uploads to begin with, sent me the wrong sizes, and the package came open so the tattoos were loose in the mail. *Edit* it too... See more

Ordering was simple and delivery was quick. I was using this as a way to test drive a large (for me) tattoo I had designed before I committed to the size and placement of the real deal. The printed pr... See more

Looks super fake

The tattoo did not come with the real teal as before and within day one looked like a child’s tattoo and very fake. I reached out they said they’d resend but again did not send the teal which in the past we have used and it makes the difference

Hi Lauren,

We're so sorry about that. We are very close to having the real teal back. I'll email you today to update you about it.

Apologies again,

The long lasting temporary tattoos are…

The long lasting temporary tattoos are great. I wish they had bigger sizes though. The pictures are misleading so make sure to measure on yourself. It did take 36 hours for the ink to be dark enough and they do warn you it takes 24-48 hours.

Custom Tattoo Lasted 2 Days

Very excited to get the tattoo. It looked amazing comping in: great packaging, great design, good looking ink. However, my tattoo only lasted 2 days. I followed the instructions and cleaned my arm and even shaved a part of my arm. Then I put it in the right position and wet it and let it sit. I pulled it up and it looked amazing! I let it dry for 7 minutes then I went on with my day. The next day, you could visibly see it coming off and I was kind of disappointed the next day when on half of the tattoo was left on my arm when it was meant to last a week to 2 weeks. Disappointed but I recommend their non custom tattoos.

Hi there! We're sorry to hear that you have had a bad experience with your Momentary Ink tattoo order. That's something that should have not happened with the tattoos until 3-4 days. I am reaching out to you via email to know more about what happened and see if we can do something to make this experience a good one for you. Apologies again,

Misleading…very misleading

Wasn’t until I got the product that I noticed the size of the lick and stick. The pictures with the lady advertised with it on is very very misleading. The picture shows the tattoo almost covering her chest end to end. This thing would barely cover one under boob. Probably not gonna order anything again

Hi, Joe! We're so sorry about that. I am reporting this sizing confusion issue with the team so we can set proper expectations with customer asap, or we may have to change the model picture of the tattoo. I'll be emailing you directly to offer help and possibly changing this bad experience for you. Apologies again,

Highly recommend

Customized temporary tattoo was perfect for my friend's son's 6th birthday. He just adores his cat and of course loves temporary tattoos, so this gift made his day. The quality was perfect and it arrived very quickly.

Disappointed with 8/9 of my tattoos

I purchased 9 semi perm tattoos from them. They all have different consistencies and colors. Some are still unbelievably sticky two days later. Some are so faint you can barely see them. Most of them feel like they should have come from a 50 cent toy dispenser for kids. They are just a sticky film that peels off in the shower. Only one of the semi perm tattoos actually is what I expected, the wolf tattoo looks good, isn’t sticky and actually is dark enough to see. My order was $137 and I’m extremely disappointed with 8/9 of my tattoos from Momentary Ink.

Pros and Cons

Pros and Cons.
Pros- The custom tattoo was great for getting an idea of what size and location I might want a real one. This is a fantastic way to "try it before you buy it". I bought a couple different sizes and put them in different locations. The original, I was VERY glad was not permanent. The second, I will do again in a different spot to see how I like it. I will probably do it 3-4 times before making it permanent.
Cons-They don't last long. It was sticky and didn't always last a full day. I didn't receive the real teal so maybe that makes a difference? I expected them to last quite a bit longer. They don't look real for a while because they shine too much and then they peel off from being sticky and rubbed. Overall- glad I purchased them despite the fact they didn't live up to expectations. I was able to better narrow down what size I wanted permanently.

Much smaller than I anticipated

Much smaller than I anticipated, especially for the money. The website lists the size as 4 in by 7 in, but that is the card that the tattoo comes on. The actual tattoo is much smaller, only about 2 in by 7 in. Definitely not a good enough size to be called a half sleeve as they have listed.

Not worth the hassle or poor quality

I started off really hopeful for these semi permanent tattoos, but I've been disappointed three times now.
First time I tried it on, the tattoo didn't transfer to my skin. I don't know what I did or didn't do, but it just didn't work.
Second time, a couple weeks later, it transfered, but then I tried their "helpful tip" to put plastic wrap on it at night so it wouldn't transfer to my sheets. The tattoo was fully dried, had been on for two hours, and looked fine. But when I tried to take it off in the morning, it peeled off onto the plastic wrap. So no tattoo left on my arm, just on the plastic wrap.
Third time, again a couple weeks later, I tried it the paper wrinkled while I was wetting it, and completely screwed up the design. I didn't even notice until I slid the paper off and it left wadded masses of the tattoo on my arm. It left wads on the paper as well. I kept the paper and my arm as neat as I could, but it folded under the wet cloth, so there wasn't anything I could have done.
For tattoos that cost over $25 each I would have expected higher quality that didn't screw up at every point during application. Extremely disappointing, frustrating, and a waste of money.
