Change Your Image With Tattoo Cover Up Makeup

By Jayne Rutledge


At the end of 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo', the title character completely changes her life. She creates bank accounts into which she transfers the bad guy's millions but to get to that money she needs to look clean-cut. A conservative outfit, a wig and tattoo cover up makeup help her to look the part and she becomes very, very rich while effecting revenge too.

It is not only in fiction that people may have to hide the designs imprinted in their skin. Some companies are quite conservative and to work there, you'd have to cover up. This is even more important if you've chosen a design that might offend others. It's not always possible to hide your tattoos underneath your clothes, especially not if they're on your face or neck, and you'd need to find an alternative.

Actors often have to find ways to hide their ink too. Angelina Jolie simply wouldn't be convincing in a period drama if the coordinates of the places where her children were born were there on her upper arm for everyone to see. Even if the character can sport tattoos, the actor's own designs should be suitable for the role or it won't work. A gangster with fairies or butterflies on his arms or back would just look silly.

There are some situations where hiding tattoos are a matter of survival. Members of street gangs usually have tattoos that identify where their loyalties lie. If they have to go into a rival gang's territory, those tattoos can be reason enough for them to be murdered. Even people who've left behind the gangster life years ago can be targets.

For former gang members, the best alternative would be to have their gang tattoos permanently removed with laser. Laser removal is also a great solution for anybody who regrets getting a former lover's name inked into their skin. This is an expensive procedure, however, and scarring may occur. Makeup may be an easier and more economical solution.

Special concealer for tattoos is thick and long lasting. However, it's lighter than your skin tone so you need to cover that up too. Choose a foundation that matches the color of your skin exactly and apply it in several thin layers once the concealer has dried. Finish it off with matte powder and let it dry completely before touching it.

The good news these days is that with so many people getting inked, it has become more socially acceptable to have tattoos. Tattooing is no longer the domain of rebels, outcasts or the underground. This may mean that you're worrying for nothing when you go for that job interview, since your future boss may have more tattoos than you do.

Good tattoo cover up makeup is available from online suppliers. You'll also find it at stores that sell cosmetics for the theater and even at some bridal stores. If you're desperate and only need to hide your ink for an hour or two, you may try a combination of white face paint and foundation or, for small designs, a tanning spray.
