 Body art and temporary tattoos are a fun
and creative way to express oneself without the painful effects
of a permanent design. Our process
begins with transferring your selected design to the skin and
then customizing the artwork with waterproof makeup paint in your
favorite colors.
Embellishments
such as crystals, glitter or jewels can be added for an even
more dazzling effect.
The ink transfer designs we use are the same
ones used worldwide in film, television and print media. They are
very realistic and
with proper care can last a week or longer. We offer many tattoo
designs for you to
choose from and can even custom order a certain design theme
for your next fundraiser, party or corporate event. Click for booking

Henna – The
Art of Mehndi
This ancient holistic therapy which was once most
often seen adorning the hands and feet of Indian brides received
widespread popularity in the late 90's and continues to remain a
popular Western culture today - often featured in fashion magazines,
runway shows, music videos, photo
shoots, and on celebrities. Thought to ward off evil, mehndi
and its natural colored orange-ochre dye are typically applied
for
celebrations and holidays.
Mehndi is the art of applying
henna, a plant extract that comes from a small bush that produces
the natural colored dye from
its leaves. The
leaves are ground into a fine powder and mixed into a paste
that is applied to the skin in intricate patterns. The
henna tattoos
stain the skin with
a dye that fades gradually over a 2-3 week period. Duration
of
stain and the depth of color depend on the area of body
chosen and length of time
the paste remains on the skin. Henna produces the best
stains on hands, feet, wrists and ankles, while designs on upper
arms, chest and
back will
last the shortest amount of time. Click for booking
