Can you cover a tattoo with makeup?

Yes you can! No matter what tattoo makeup concealer you choose here are the 4 basic steps: STEP 1: Prepare the area Lots of tutorials make this step seem really complicated. Don't be fooled. It's not. You need your skin to be clean and dry and moisturised. If you want to get really fancy use an ordinary makeup primer but that's it. Clean, dry and moisturised. Done. STEP 2: Add the Neutralising Base Concealer Use the spatula that is provided and place a little of the Base Concealer onto your hand. Using small strokes, take the concealer onto the brush and apply to the tattoo. Do one full layer first. Wait for it to dry a little and do another and then if needed, another until the tattoo is fully covered. Test out both of the colours that are provided and don't be afraid to use both. Different areas of your tattoo may need a different concealer colour. Here's how that looks STEP 3: APPLYING FINISHING COLOUR In every Tattoo Secret kit, there are 3 Finishing Colours. They come in light or medium and contain high colour pigments for long-lasting coverage. This is where you should spend a little time. Play around and test out different combinations. Apply the Finishing Colours to achieve a natural match to your skin tone. Again, take the spatula. Place a little Finishing Colour on the palm or back of your hand. This will allow the texture to soften. That way it will be easier to apply and colour match. Make sure you blend the edges carefully. As before, add as many layers as you need. Every few layers use some of the finishing powder. This is your skin and your look so experiment with the combination that works for you. Here's what that looks like. STEP 4: Add Finishing Powder Our Finishing Powder is realy easy to apply. It is lightweight and allows the makeup to set with a water-resistant finish. It is easy to apply. All you have to do is touch the powder on with the puff that we have provided. Once that is done, you can brush off any excess with the smaller brush.

How can I cover a tattoo without makeup?

Its surprisingly easy. Cover it with something physical. One of the most popular spots for a tattoo (at least for ladies) is on the wrists. if that is you - you might take the easy road and cover it with a thick bracelet. Cuff bracelet's not your style? You might be surprised - there are a lot of options out there. Here are some ideas from Etsy to get you started. For men, think about a large watch and tighten the strap to keep everything in place and covered up. Same deal with an ankle or foot tattoo. Maybe you were planning on sandals but what about the idea of rocking boots with your summer dress and do the boho thing and take the easiest road to cover up.

Reviews of Tattoo Cover-up products

I never do anything in a half-hearted manner.

When I decided I needed a dog in my life I went out and bought a rescue puppy who turned out to be 80% Great Dane and who now weighs 60 kgs.

When I decided I wanted to get fit, I signed up for the New York Marathon - and did it.

So when I decided I wanted to try and cover up my tattoo with a concealer, I went out and tested every product on the market.

Obviously....

I spent $780 (and can you believe it I didn't even keep the receipts) and here are my favourites

Winner.... obviously.....

Dermablend Cover Creme Broad Spectrum SPF 30

Smudgeproof - once dry

Cons

May not have enough coverage to completely hide all types of tattoos.

Mac Studio Face and Body Foundation

This lightweight coverage is smooth and creamy and has a surprising degree of cover. It does a nice job of providing natural coverage.

Pros

Provides natural cover

Cons

May not have enough coverage to completely hide all types of tattoos.
