WHY NOT temporary tattoo – modern lettering

This minimalist text tattoo features the bold question "WHY NOT" in modern sans-serif lettering. The 5x5cm format (roughly cotopads-sized) creates a clean statement piece that works for those seeking motivational wording without ornamental elements.

The design uses straightforward capital letters with balanced spacing for easy readability from a distance. Unlike cursive or decorative scripts that can blur over time, this sans-serif style maintains clarity throughout the full wear period. The compact composition fits the message into a small footprint while keeping each letter legible.

Our jagua ink penetrates the skin's outer layer for a matte, realistic finish, unlike shiny sticker transfers that peel at the edges. This plant-based formula withstands water and friction for 10 to 15 days, significantly longer than the 3 to 5 days typical of synthetic temporary tattoos.

This size works well on the forearm for high visibility, the shoulder blade for subtle placement, or the calf for versatile positioning. The horizontal layout adapts to curved body areas without distorting the lettering.

Ideal for those testing text placement before committing to permanent ink, or anyone wanting a conversation-starter design for events and daily wear. Good choice if you're drawn to affirmation-style tattoos with a modern aesthetic.
