How to Apply a Removable Eyebrow Tattoo

There are several reasons people go out and get an eyebrow tattoo. Some people may be suffering from the side effects of chemotherapy, and can't grow eyebrows. Others may want to save time by not having to pencil in their eyebrows. If you're not sure a permanent eyebrow tattoo is the way you should go, you can opt for a removable tattoo. Some companies offer such tattoos at reasonable prices. They last about two to three days, are waterproof, and are easy to apply.

Things You'll Need

• alcohol
• removable tattoo
• baby oil
• tissue

Instructions

1. Prep your eyebrows. Wet a soft tissue with alcohol, and gently wipe over the area where you're going to apply the eyebrow. It is important to make sure the area is clean and oil free. If there is dirt and grease on your skin, the eyebrows may not adhere properly.

2. Line them up evenly. You'll want to make sure you line up the temporary eyebrows evenly on your face. Before you peel them off the page, get a ruler or straight edge and use it as a guide to mark where you want to apply them.

3. Choose the right shade for your false eyebrows. One of the biggest mistakes first time brow wearers make is that they choose a shade that is too dark. You want the eyebrow to look natural as possible. Choose a shade that is at least one shade lighter than your natural hair.

4. Apply the temporary tattoo. Peel the tattoo from the adhesive and apply to your face. Take extra care to put them where you marked, when you lined them up in Step two.

5. Remove the tattooed eyebrow. Using baby oil, gently wipe over the brow area. This will loosen the adhesive solution, and you should be able to peel the brows right off.

6. Reorder as needed. Once you remove the tattoo, it can't be reused. You can buy a week's supply for around three dollars online. Check the resource boxes below for companies that sell removable eyebrow tattoos.
