There has been a running trend on TikTok that involves people giving themselves “QuaranTattoos.” And while many of them are trained professionals and apprentices of the age-old craft, there are also many people (like celebrities) who are not. But in lieu of potentially harming yourself, you can look to semi-permanent tattoo kits instead.

I know what you’re thinking. Semi-permanent tattoo kits don’t leave a permanent tattoo. But it also won’t become a big deal if and when you smudge ink that’ll only last for two weeks. Stars like Paris Jackson have been seen applying stick and poke tattoos. Even Kaia Gerber admitted to trying her hand at a stick and poke tattoo and would not recommend unless you’re a professional. Not to mention, you won’t hurt yourself in the process or spread any more germs than people are already trying to limit. But these tattoo kits include skin-safe ink, stencils, and drawing tools to create your own not-so-long-lasting design.

If you are so tempted to mark up your body (safely) you can turn to some of these realistic tattoo kits.
