10 Best Temporary Tattoos UK 2024 | Inkbox, INKED by Dani and More

Love decorative florals and botanical illustrations? Well so do we, and we couldn't help but be drawn to these watercolour-inspired masterpieces by COKTAK. With 12 sheets of transfers including lavender, sweet pea and dandelion designs, they're perfect for those with a penchant for plants.

These tattoos are advertised as lasting for up to 6 days (particularly in an area such as the leg or ankle) and are non-toxic, safe and easy to remove. Delicate, feminine and totally chic, these temporary transfers are our favourite and we think they might be yours, too.

For something that lasts a little longer, why not try Inkbox's hugely popular freehand ink pen? Made in Canada from cruelty-free, plant-based ink, it develops over 24 hours and lasts for up to two weeks! 

The 'For Now' Ink used is a new tattoo technology that works with your skin's natural chemistry for a result that is safe and fades as your skin regenerates. The thin steel tip allows for highly detailed designs, offering creative freedom for very real-looking tattoos without the forever part! The ergonomic bottle makes application a breeze, too.

Feeling a little creative? BIC's BodyMark temporary pen and sheet kit offers the perfect way to express your own style, whether you choose to go freehand or use the beautifully designed stencils.

These cosmetic-quality markers let you create unique and fun tattoos with a burst of bright colour and a bucketload of cool. The flexible felt tip pen produces thin or broad lines and you can choose from eight vivid and skin-safe colours. Exciting, adaptable and well worth the money!

Made with white ink, INKED by Dani's White-Out temporary tattoo pack looks amazing with a warm-weather tan and beautifully compliments darker skin tones. Bring a bit of boho to your day with these gorgeous travel and nature-inspired designs.

Dani's tattoos are totally safe, non-toxic, and hand-drawn and made in the USA from cruelty-free, vegan ink. Not only are these transfers well-made, but they've also been featured in Vogue and worn by the likes of Kourtney Kardashian and Gigi Hadid. And if they're good enough for them, they're certainly good enough for us!

If you love old-school style tattoos but brought up to date with a contemporary twist, check out this set by Tatsy. The designs feature a hot air balloon, dreamcatcher and other unique motifs suitable for adults, kids and everyone in between. 

Waterproof, non-toxic and dermatologically tested, they are both safe for your skin and easy to remove. Best of all, the tattoo sets in Tatsy's range are hand-designed by a variety of young European tattoo artists for an authentic look.

Founded by artist Dani Egna, INKED by Dani was created to help you "Make Your Tattoo Dreams a Temporary Reality" – and, of course, have lots of fun in the process! The range has lots of different options and we think these Self Love transfers look super cute and super realistic, too.

The individual transfers have mixed slogans such as "everything happens for a reason" and "carpe diem", perfect for practising some self-love and compassion. We also like that they're subtle enough to wear every day, bringing some good, posi vibes whenever you feel like it!

If you're looking for something different from the traditional black tattoo styles, these metallic transfers by Makerfire are an exciting option. Waterproof and easy to stick onto the body, these transfers add a touch of sparkle and shine – perfect for a party or event.

They are also non-toxic, easy to remove and can be added to most parts of the body for a mesmerising, bejewelled look. A gorgeous accessory for a festival, beach party or holiday outfit that's sure to dazzle.

If you like to keep it cute, take a look at these all-black transfers by Glaryyears. Featuring some really lovely designs in a variety of sizes from tiny to medium, they look realistic (but, of course, without the pain) and are bang on trend. 

A highly-rated product online, these tats are easy to apply and remove and last for several days without fading or peeling. Though not recommended for sensitive skin, these are suitable for adults and kids and are a cheap, fun and safe way to try out some charming body art.

Made not with black henna (which contains PPD, a chemical some people react badly to) but with ink from the jagua fruit, this kit is a natural-based alternative suitable for all ages. The kit contains lots of bits and pieces such as toothpicks, gloves and wipes alongside 40 reusable stencils and enough jagua for 10-15 tattoos. 

Including a variety of designs from mandala-inspired flowers to barbed wire, there's something for almost everyone here. While it is no doubt more of a faff than a transfer sticker, it does last much longer and is a great pick if you want to see how you might get on with a real tattoo before committing.

Most temporary tattoos focus on "stamp" style designs, but if you're interested in a bolder, more impactful look, this might be the pack for you. With this range of intricate designs, you can experiment with the idea of a sleeve without the commitment.

The pack includes 8 full sleeves and 12 half-arm tattoos which are easy to apply and remove with baby oil, soap and water. Suitable for both men and women, this set can also be used for fancy dress or as part of a character costume for actors or performers. But for some of us, this look might be a bit too bold.
