WE CAN ALL SHINE ON... NOW

Add some brilliant beautiful shine to your body anytime with gorgeous gold, silver, and copper tattoos. We’ve seen some really fabulous ideas to try.

Inspired by henna art and inked tattoos, metallic tattoos are easy to apply and they are temporary, so you can try different designs to suit your mood.

Metallic tattoos debuted just a few years ago in Japan, and are now spreading their shine around.

They are made of 24K gold, pure 999 silver, or copper flakes fused into designs that you can apply to your skin yourself -- in a flash. They last from five to ten days and can be easily removed simply with olive oil.

Metallic tattoos can add the subtle shine of jewelry to your skin, with filigree thin designs, or layer designs, as you would bracelets and necklaces, creating your own body jewelry effect. You can layer a selection of 24K gold and sterling silver motifs to create your own designs. 

Add a glint to highlight an ankle or a wrist. Add a gleam to a shoulder or a collarbone. Create shimmering “stockings.” Rock some shiny “henna.” Try some subtle sparkle any place you want. It’s a sexy, sweet, sophisticated, shine.

Try some of our favorite metallic tattoos from Gold Sin Jewels, and check out the wonderful collection at Lulu DK.
