Any tips on covering tatoos?

Post by Sheena »

Whats the best tips to cover tattoos, especially when they are on the arms? I'm going to my first CD ball at the end of this month, and I need something to cover them. I mostly wear long dresses and gowns with straps. I have bought 2 beautiful scarves to match with the gowns I like the most, but I'm thinking there could be a easier way. I suppose I could wear a long coat too, but its not the same. Any tips!!!

Well I know there is this make up called Tattoo Cover. You just got to get it in the right blend for your skin type is all.

Hi
Mehron makes a "tattoo cover". It also works well for covering the dreaded beard shadow. I ordered some on-line, and it was delivered within a week, although I understand some costume stores carry it. If you're not sure of your color..order the "color ring" for testing. URL is http://www.mehron.com/retail/moreinfo.cfm?Product_ID=55 (if its ok to post that). Good luck

Hi Sheena,

I think Dermablend may work?

Beauty is right...try Dermablend also. I've settled on Dermablend for my needs. However, Mehron makes a product specifically for tattoos..and its rather inexpensive....probably worth a try. Also, Amerimark has a few Dermablend products really cheap...not a big selection right now....but it changes http://www.amerimark.com/cgi-bin/amerim ... _home.html Umm..not that I shop a lot:)

I got a mailer from the Ulta store recently. There was a flyer in it for a product called CoverBlend by Exuviance.
