There are certain occasions where you might want to cover up your tattoo. I'm Jackie Silver
from Aging Backwards with how to camouflage a tattoo. Perhaps, you're about to walk down
the aisle and the colors don't flatter your wedding dress. Or maybe you've got an important
job interview and you're not sure how well received your body art will be. You can camouflage
your tattoo with a few everyday ingredients in a few easy steps. Purchase a heavy cream
concealer that offers opaque coverage. Choose at least two colors. One should be up to two
shades lighter than your skin tone to neutralize the darkness of the tattoo. And the second
color should match your skin tone as closely as possible. Clean and dry the tattooed skin.
Begin with the lightest concealer color and cover the entire tattoo with a brush or a
sponge. Cover all the ink but avoid the surrounding skin. Next, apply the color that matches your
skin over the first layer, but go beyond the tattoo and blend with the surrounding skin.
Set it with powder using a cosmetic powder or a cotton ball. Remember when camouflaging
a tattoo, choose at least two colors of heavy concealer, one lighter and one matching your
skin tone. Blend the light color over the tattoo follow with the skin tone color and
set it with powder. I'm Jackie with how to camouflage a tattoo and I hope you get that
job.
