Are You Going To Use Tattoo Cover Up Makeup

By Andrea Davidson


There are many people in the world who have opted to ink their bodies with various designs or patterns, some investing lots of money on their body art. So why consider the use of tattoo cover up makeup? Some body art is regrettable, and where the tattoo artist may not have provided satisfactory tattoo art, many customers may wish to cover it up. Another reason is a search for employment. Some employers may look upon a candidate unfavorably if the candidate is sporting a tattoo. Whatever the reason, these cosmetics can hide any tattoos if you do not want them to be visible.

You must try to find products which are able to cover up your body art effectively. Internet reviews on independent websites such as pharmacies which sell the cosmetics can be helpful, as these reviews are from real customers who have used the products. Family or friends who have illustrations on their body they wanted to hide may also be able to give useful advice about choosing the right product. Many retailers may offer testers, as do some magazines. Look out for free samples to ensure if the product is right for your skin.

The price of the cosmetics is also a very important factor. Ensure that you are not charged an expensive price for a product that doesn't work, as some expensive brands may not work as well. Ask around and try to get the best deal on a brand that works. See what the average asking price for these sorts of cosmetics are, to ensure you do not pay something extortionate. The amount of make up you get for the price is also something you need to think about. A large pot of concealer may be more expensive at first, but you might get more for your money than a smaller pot.

Choosing cosmetics which are waterproof is also highly important. If the body art is in an area which is regularly washed throughout the day, for example the hands, it will be costly and time consuming to keep reapplying the make up. Make sure you have a guarantee the cosmetics you are buying will not come off when washed. Even if the body art is not in areas which are washed regularly, it will be highly beneficial if the make up does not come off in the shower or in rain, to further save money.

Now you must consider what products you need. Concealer is possibly the most important part of any cosmetic of this kind. This helps to hide the bulk of the body art, by covering it over with the color of your skin. Because of this, it is very important to decide on a concealer which will match your skin tone. If you choose a concealer which is too pale skin, the area will look white and shiny and will probably draw more attention to it. However, if you choose a concealer which is much darker than your skin tone, you will be left with a dark orange patch which will not detract attention from the area either. Testing the concealers in person is a necessity.

Before applying the cosmetics onto your body art, you should also consider applying a base or moisturizer to ensure the products go on smoothly and cannot be seen. Many companies can provide these moisturizers, and some are specifically designed for tattooed skin. Using one could save you money and time reapplying the products you buy.

It would also be advisable to purchase a protective seal for your make up, to further ensure it cannot be washed off in the rain or in the shower. A protective seal should dry quickly, be a fair price and should last a long time to ensure long lasting protection for your cover up makeup.

It is important to know all the facts and consider the many types and prices of the tattoo cover up makeup on offer to you. In this way, you can avoid spending your money on any make up which doesn't work, and make an informed decision on which products to buy.
