The glitter tattoos should last between 3-7 days depending on skin type and maintenance and are generally waterproof. That means that showers and even prolonged baths won't take them off. Just pat dry after spending time in the water. While in shower or bath - try not to scrub the glitter tattoo too harshly as it will shorten its lifetime. To remove the glitter tattoo - simply use alcohol swab or oil based products and soak the glitter tattoo area for few minutes. After soaking, gently scrub the glitter tattoo with a damp towel and it should easily come off. Please don't scratch the children tattoos as you might irritate the skin. Just use any lotion and the kids tattoos will come right off. There are several instances where the tattoos won't last as expected: 1. Not applying enough glue 2. Applying the glitter tattoo without cleaning the skin first. 3. Applying the glitter tattoo on a skin that has either lotion or oil For an ideal application please see that the skin is clean and dry prior to applying the body adhesive. Wait approximately for 30-45 seconds for the glue to become translucent / clear and only then apply the glitter Following these instructions will result in a perfect glitter tattoo that last for 3-7 days GlitZGlam

The glow lasts a couple of days depending on how many coats you put on. Be sure to put your nails under the light or out on the sun after you apply the polish. It does not glow the color of the polish.

Cristin, that is exactly what I used it for! I dipped the rim into orange juice and then into the glitter and it was perfect. Doesn't leave any gold on your lips! Good luck!

up to three days without excessive scrubbing or depends where the temp tat is placed

Depends on who is making the tattoos - you or your child, and how old the child is :-)There is plenty of glitter. What would determine how many you make will be the glue - I haven't counted exactly, but made more than 40 with the first glue tube.

This honestly never happens to me but you can try dipping the end of the band in alcohol and sliding it in. Leave it alone for 24hrs. If that doesn't work, I would try some gorilla glue. And then slide it in.

The Transfer paper is actually really good. If you know how to use it correctly, that is. People think you can just slap the stencil on you and go at it, no. You HAVE to let it dry. Any tattoo artist will tell you. If you're using speed stick, allow at least 5 minutes. I usually do 10. It gives me time to prep other things and converse with the client and learn why they're getting the tattoo they're getting. It's like an ice breaker.

with reading other answers from nail techs, they say to use the lamp that is recommended by the product you use. I use a different Uv light than CND with my product. With glitter application it has not stayed well.

I use it only once/day. But I haven't finished mine yet so don't know quite how long it lasts. But enjoy it & see what happens. Hope it works for you. I like it!!

Two problems could be in play:1 try a different brand of polish: nailuv is my favorite. Right now I'm using the gelish bond, base & top coat. I'm going to try nailuv next time I purchase those basics.2 make sure you are extending the brush all the way through to the tip on all edges of the nail. Then cap the nail on all sides with your polish steps and your base/top coat steps. This should help. Pay extra attention to your edges and polish should last longer. Sensationail polish only lasts about 5-6 days for me though. Nailuv lasted almost 10 before I took it off because I wanted a new color. Oh and for the bottoms, try to be as thin as possible for each layer, avoid your cuticles...that should help!! Two problems could be in play:1 try a different brand of polish: nailuv is my favorite.

I did a discharge test and it went for ~ 4 hours before the light intensity started to drop. After 5 hours the intensity dropped faster but even after 7.5 hours it was still putting out useable light. I'd post a photo of the discharge plot but I can't see how to do it for this product.

2 days worth would be best just because the texture gets thick. I tried a week and noticed the texture change.

There is a slight glaze, but I'm pretty sure it fades after 24 hours... Though, now that I think about it, it may still very slightly be there.. Nothing too crazy though!

Hunn, I have purchased this months ago and although it may seem that there are similar colors, there actually not. Some colors that seem the same are mixed with other glitters that deem them to be different of those glitters that seem to be alike. These glitters will most likely have you set for a lifetime, and the price on this are very reasonable with the amount you receive compared to others who sell them. I highly recommend any one who is in need of glitter to purchase this product. I'm glad I did. I hope this helps!

Take the polish off and reapply it. I think what had happened to me was that I left it longer than 2 days and my nails started to break
