One of the things temporary tattoos are good for are for freaking people out. These temptoos work on two levels. If you are a geek but want to fit in with the cool kids, this is a great alternative to permanent inking. If you're not a geek, then imagine the shear joy of shocking your friends when you show up with an I (heart) coding tattoo, or I (heart) caffeine. Really stun them with binary numbers displayed in a conspicuous spot on your bod.
They are like the old time decals, only better. Just wet, apply and in 30 seconds, you have a tat. Each 3-1/2" x 4-1/2" hard-cover book contains 16 non-toxic temporary tattoos ranging in size from 1/2" to 3".
