    Cheers to everyone for all the positive advice. I'm going to look into that cover up stuff from boots and see how it goes, but I'm also just going to do what I've been doing since I got it done, and just live with it :rolleyes:
    Thanks Hellrazer for banning Kharn...just the kind of abuse I can do without!

    I got my tattoo when I was 14... yes 14! (It's body art, it's so cool... were some of the things I said) I got it done in the mint, which I don't think is there anymore. Anyway, I'm now 26 and while its only small, I hate it. I went for a consultation about having it lazered off but it sounds really painful and because there is red in it it'll take ages and it'll never be fully gone. I wish I'd gotten it done on my ar*e or something but nope, I got it done just above my right breast, so if I ever wear a strapless top or dress it shows. My boyfriend says he likes it, but he has to :rolleyes:


    Just out of interest, did the guy there have you sitting there at 14 with no top on as he tattooed you?

    Nope, I was wearing a string strap top and was able to just remove one strap. It's up fairly high

    There is a new experimental way to remove tattoos.
    They basically Tattoo under the original with a special liquid that expells it from the skin.
    Problem is that it is still stuck in developement. It is medically sound but the inventor can't find anyone to fund him. He's planning to set up frencises just like the tattoo parlours. So you can go get the tattoo done and then go next door and get it removed.
    Saw some pictures and it looks the job.
    And most importantly no scarring.

    I haven't used the cover up stuff from boots but I have used Veil Concealer.

    http://www.veilcover.com/veilproducts.htm

    It's brillant! Covers scars, bruises, tattoos, birthmarks the lot and it waterproof. I suggest you getting the palette of colours so you can match the make-up exactly to your skin color. The boots cover up may only come in 2 or 3 shades and it can sometimes look greyish on the skin.

    If your tattoo is mainly red, you need to add green into the concealing mixture. Don't do what some people do , put white first and then skin colour over it. This makes the skin look dead (that grey look).
    Mix the colours on the back of your hand. Use a small make-up brush and apply it lightly, bulid up the colour rather than trowelling it on. Then use translucent powder (some comes with the Veil Palette) to set the make-up.

    Just PM me if you need any more advice! ;)
