Looking to express yourself with something as unique as your taste in curiosities? Enter Paxton Gate’s Temporary Tattoos—locally designed right here in San Francisco by Kris Struble. These nature inspired tattoos offer a touch of oddity and elegance, perfect for showcasing your love of the peculiar, the scientific, and the unusual. Available in two delightful varieties (with new designs each month!), these tattoos are a playful, temporary way to celebrate your individuality— no tattoo gun required. Application Made Easy
- Start with a clean slate—wash and dry the skin where you want your tattoo to live for the next few days.
- Peel away the clear protective layer and place the tattoo face down on your skin.
- Dampen a cloth or sponge, press it firmly against the tattoo, and hold for about 20–30 seconds. The backing paper will be translucent.
- Gently peel back the paper backing to reveal your masterpiece.
Keeping It Fresh
- Skip the oil-based lotions—your tattoo deserves better.
- A little water-based moisturizer can help keep the design sharp.
- No sweaty adventures for at least 30 minutes post-application; give it time to settle.
- When you’re ready to part ways with your tattoo (or swap it for a new one), simply massage the area with baby oil or petroleum jelly and wipe away with a cloth.
