"temporary" tattoos?

littlebitdull · 2007-02-27 22:31:03

Can you get short lived tattoos. Not the stick on type of thing we used to get in lucky bags but something done like a real tattoo but that only lasts ..say about four or five years? And do you know where you would get such a thing. In Dublin.

Dave is fairly accurate, there was some vegatable based inks going around a awhile ago that were meant to be temporary but the results were far from good.

There was a big discussion about it on here at one stage not that long ago. But it seems to have gone. It said everything that could be said. if it could be found in some sort of archives, that would be good. It had qoutes and excepts from stories and everything.

Basically its a sham, Google it and read the stories of angry people who fell for it.

Here are a few links:
