What is a 2-week tattoo?

What is a 2-week tattoo?

A tattoo that looks like a real one – no needle, and it lasts up to 2 weeks.

The ink soaks into the top layer of your skin and develops there. Right after applying it is still light; within 24–48 hours it turns dark and rich. As your skin renews, it fades on its own.

Does it really look real?

Yes – because the colour doesn’t sit on your skin, it forms inside it.

No shine, no film, no edges. After 24–48 hours it’s a deep blue-black – like a fresh tattoo.

How is it different from a real tattoo or henna?

It looks like a tattoo – just without a needle and not forever.

  • Real tattoo: needled, stays forever.
  • Henna: stains orange to reddish-brown, usually painted by hand.
  • Tattoos that only sit on the skin: often shiny and come off within a few days.
  • Tattup: the ink develops in your skin, looks real, is waterproof and lasts up to 2 weeks.

How do I apply it?

In under a minute: clean skin, place it, wet it, peel off the paper.

  1. Wash a smooth spot and dry it well. Shave any hair, no cream or oil.
  2. Peel off the clear protective film on the back.
  3. Place it – the Tattup logo facing up.
  4. Dab with a wet cloth until the paper is soaked through, press gently.
  5. Slowly peel off the paper. No water and no rubbing for the first 8 hours.

Why is it so light at first?

That’s normal – the full colour comes after 24–48 hours.

The ink only develops in your skin. For an event, apply it 1–2 days before.

How long does it last – and is it waterproof?

Up to 2 weeks. From the next day: shower, swim, sports, sauna.

Only for the first 8 hours no water and no rubbing. For the first 2 nights, wear something loose to sleep. Spots with little friction last longer.

Does it hurt? Is it safe?

No needle, no pain – and the formula is tested under the EU Cosmetics Regulation.

As with any cosmetic product, a reaction can never be ruled out completely. If your skin is sensitive, do a small patch test first. We recommend Tattup from 18.

And if it doesn’t work?

Tattoo Guarantee: replacement or money back.

Did everything right and it still didn’t work? Get in touch within 72 hours after applying, with a photo – and you get a replacement or your money back.

  • ★★★★★ just looks so real. Fast delivery. Gladly again Translated from German · Anonym
  • ★★★★★ A real tattoo that you eventually don’t like is the most expensive bad investment ever, not to mention laser removal. That’s why I prefer to test designs on my arm for two weeks before committing forever. That way you save yourself costly regret and all for just a few euros 🖤 Translated from German · Sarah F.
  • ★★★★★ Lowkey the best thing I impulsively ordered. Lasts and looks real. Translated from German · Anonym
  • ★★★★★ The lion looks so real that I've often been asked which studio I went to. Translated from German · Lucas Hoffmann
