    I've just realized that these kind of tattoos existed, I've seen some pictures and they look so gnarly! The ink doesn't show up unless its under a blacklight.
    Does anyone have one of these tattoos or know anything about this sort of ink? it doesn't sound like they'd be very good for your skin :confused:

    I have searched very long for UV active pigments that are suitable for the use on the body, as in bodypainting. And even for that use, there officially no pigments. So I doubt, that these UV tatoos are healthy.... because it's not only temporary on the skin, but permantent, in the skin....


    I am not saying it can't be done, but it's probably not so good. Plus, the effect is probably only temporary.
