After the flash tattoo trend, comes a much more realistic version of temporary tattoos, Inkbox. Brothers Tyler and Braden Handley are the creators of this realistic temporary tattoo line that disappears like magic and leaves no trace after a period of 12 to 15 days.
The Inkbox Tattoos
These tattoos offer the possibility (in addition to temporarily decorating our body) of being the most similar option to a real tattoo if we’re undecided about where to get a tattoo or what design to choose.
Inkbox are tattoos made from 100% organic fruit-based ink, applied with a patch that consists of four layers: one with the design template, another with the ink, a protective layer, and one that adheres to the skin. They can be found for $14 if they’re pre-designed or starting at $36 if they’re custom-made.
The process is simple, like a sticker, you peel off the back of the applicator, place it on the skin where you want the tattoo, and press the back with a cloth for 10 minutes. Then, you let it dry for 2 hours. These tattoos will appear on the skin within 12 to 24 hours in black, fully revealed.
Thanks to a Kickstarter campaign, the Handley brothers have managed to fund this project, which has exceeded its main goal of $20,000 in just four days, raising a total of $244,367 from 6,876 backers.
During the Kickstarter campaign, new goals were set and achieved, allowing the company to include more features in their brand, such as an online tattoo design studio that enables customers to create and order any tattoo they desire.
They also implemented a system that allows users to upload their own designs to the platform, which will be automatically converted into Inkbox tattoos or created from scratch by manipulating shapes and writing text.
Now, having surpassed their latest goal of $180,000, they have hired a team of engineers to explore the possibility of creating temporary tattoos with color and shading.
Since the components of the ink come from the Panamanian Genipa fruit, which is used by the Embera-Wounaan and Kuna tribes to decorate their bodies, a percentage of each tattoo sold will be donated to the Darien initiative, an organization that provides educational and agricultural support to these tribes in the region.

- Hello everyone! My name is Jade Blunt, and I'm a passionate tattoo enthusiast. Let me share a bit about my life and my journey in the world of ink and skin.
Ever since I was a child, I've been drawn to art and creativity in all its forms. However, it was when I turned 18 that I discovered my true passion: tattoos. I remember my first tattoo, a small design on my wrist that marked the beginning of an adventure that would change my life forever.
As my love for tattoos grew, so did my desire to learn more about this fascinating art. I started researching, talking to talented tattoo artists, and immersing myself in the history and culture of tattoos. Every tattoo tells a story, and I wanted to be a part of that narrative.
Over time, I decided to share my passion with the world through my blog, "Tattoo Gun Machine." In this space, I strive to provide valuable information about tattoos, from tips for tattooed skin care to stories of innovative tattoo artists and inspiring designs. My goal is to educate and inspire those who share my love for tattoos, as well as to demystify some of the stigmas surrounding this art form.
My blog has become a corner of the web where the tattoo-loving community can connect, share ideas, and explore new trends. I've also had the privilege of interviewing some of the most talented tattoo artists in the world, who share their unique experiences and knowledge within my pages.
But my journey in the world of tattoos doesn't stop here. I'm always on the lookout for new inspiration and challenges. I dream of one day opening my own tattoo studio, where I can bring my own designs to life and continue contributing to this form of artistic expression.
So, if you share my passion for tattoos or are simply interested in learning more about this exciting world, I invite you to join me on my journey at "Tattoo Gun Machine." Together, we can explore the art, culture, and beauty of tattoos as we continue to ink our stories onto the canvas of life. I'll see you on my blog!
