Gothic tattoos

Gothic style sits somewhere between a cathedral and a graveyard: ornate crosses, crescent moons, thorned roses, spiders, hooded reapers and moody portraits. These gothic tattoos put that mood on your skin with no needle and no lifelong commitment.
Expect a lot of black. Fine line work with lace-thin detail, sketchy shading, solid silhouettes, all printed in jagua ink that starts out faint and deepens to blue-black over 24 to 48 hours. Application takes 2 minutes max; since the color needs that day or two to develop, apply it well before you want it at full strength.
Made for the night out
Gothic temporary tattoos finish a Halloween costume in a way face paint never will, and they're just as at home at a concert, a goth club night or a wedding with a black dress code. A single cross on a finger or behind the ear is a quiet nod; a bigger piece across the forearm, collarbone or upper back makes the full statement. Forearms and shoulders keep the design longest, up to 2 weeks, while fingers fade faster. Once the first 8 hours have passed, it's waterproof, so the rain outside the venue won't touch it.
Not sure gothic tattoos suit you long term? That's exactly what a temporary one is for: wear it, live with it, decide later. Want the wider shadow side?
