How does your fruit juice-based semi-permanent tattoo work?
Great question! Let's delve into the scientific details of Juicy Inc.'s semi-permanent tattoos:
Dyeing Raw Material: Juicy Inc. utilizes gardenia🌼, a plant from the Rubiaceae family, as the primary dyeing raw material.
Organic Reaction: When the gardenia extract comes into contact with the skin, it interacts with proteins on the outer layer of the keratinocyte membrane, triggering an organic reaction.
Ink Development: As a result of this organic reaction, the skin appears blue initially and darkens over 24-48 hours to a blue-black shade, closely resembling the appearance of a real tattoo.
Skin Layers: The skin consists of three layers: epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue. Specifically:
- The epidermis comprises the basement membrane, basal layer, and stratum corneum.
- The dyeing raw materials remain primarily within the stratum corneum, part of the first layer of the skin.
Natural fading: Over time, as aging keratinocytes naturally shed, the dyeing material also fades away. This metabolic cycle typically occurs over 2-4 weeks.
Residue-Free: Importantly, the color gradually fades without leaving any residue or adverse effects on the skin. 😊🌿

Can I make my tattoo last longer?
Absolutely! For an extra juicy boost, keep your Juicy Inc. tattoos looking fresh for longer with these top-secret tips!🤫✨
Top tip: Avoid rubbing or getting your Juicy Inc. tattoo wet in the first 1-2 hours after application. Wait till your tattoo is completely dry, it will then stay juicy for longer! 💪🤗
Colour tattoo:
After applying the tattoo, you might notice shiny edges. Don't worry; the colour will become matte as it settles. Don't forget: keep it dry to keep it juicy in the first 1-2 hours!💪🤗
If the tattooed skin feels tight, wait until the tattoo fully dries. Then, gently smooth on a thin layer of moisturizer to reduce dryness and further enhance the matte appearance of the colour.
You can enjoy your Juicy Inc. colour tattoo in water, but be mindful during bathing or long hot showers, as hot water may weaken the protective layer.
Avoid excessive rubbing and scrubbing.
Remember size matters, folks! Be gentle with your tiny tattoos, especially those on your ear & fingers.
Semi-permanent tattoo:
It is recommended to apply after shower and before bedtime. After application, wear clothing or lay a fabric on top to cover the tattooed area. This helps prevent ink from transferring to unintended skin sections.
I love both, which type should I choose?
Juicy Inc. colour tattoo is great for those who want vibrant colours and ease of use, as it can be applied quickly and ink appears instantly upon application. It is ideal for short-term wear, lasting 3-7 days, and can be easily removed.
Our semi-permanent tattoo offers a more realistic look, resembling a real tattoo with more depth and detail. It is a good choice for those who prefer a longer-lasting option without the commitment of a permanent tattoo. It gradually fades as the skin naturally regenerates over the course of 1-2 weeks.
In sum, if you’re looking for a temporary and colourful design to enjoy for a few days, our colour tattoo is the way to go! If you want something that lasts longer and looks more like a real tattoo, our semi-permanent tattoo might be the better choice! Or, just get both and mix & match them if you're also indecisive like me. 🥰
How can I get it off?
To remove your Juicy Inc. colour tattoo:
Consider using makeup remover liquid or body wash with a sponge, you might be able to gently scrub it off.
To remove your semi-permanent tattoo:
Juicy Inc.'s semi-permanent tattoos sink into the skin's first layer, preventing premature removal. Over 1-2 weeks, the tattoo naturally fades as skin cells regenerate, allowing gentle scrubbing to remove it.
Do Juicy Inc. products expire?
No, Juicy Inc.'s non-permanent tattoos have no expiration date, you can store them for future use!
