Human Skull Temporary Tattoo

This minimalist human skull temporary tattoo uses clean linework to create a compact symbolic design. The small 5x5cm format (roughly cotopads-sized) fits easily on the forearm, shoulder, or calf for those who want skull imagery without overwhelming detail.

Unlike realistic skull designs that require larger formats for anatomical accuracy, this simplified approach focuses on essential contours and structure. The minimalist treatment creates a modern interpretation that works well for daily wear or as a test design before committing to permanent ink.

Our plant-based jagua ink penetrates the skin's surface layer for a matte, authentic finish that water-slide transfers cannot replicate. This natural formulation resists water and friction while lasting 10 to 15 days, significantly longer than synthetic stickers that typically fade within 3 to 5 days.

The compact dimensions suit the forearm for visible placement, the shoulder for easy concealment under clothing, or the calf for warm-weather visibility. This size also works well behind the shoulder blade or on the upper arm depending on your preference.

Suitable for those drawn to memento mori symbolism or anatomical imagery in a wearable format. Good option if you're exploring skull designs without committing to large-scale realism or traditional styles.
