Don't know if this is the right category but...

Where can I get good quality flash tattoos that will last long on my skin?

Also: What are your opinions on flash tattoos? And have you tried them? :)

I've never tried them, I didn't even know what they were but just googled them and they look pretty cool. I came across this website called flash tat. Com and all the designs look super nice.

Aren't flash tattoos the designs you get on walls/in books in tattoo parlours that are the 'generic' designs (I.e not custom)?

Hannah, that's exactly what I though...those generic tattoos on the walls at tattoo shops.

Yeah I thought flash tattoos were standard typical tattoo designs you see in tattoo parlours, just like hannah and kelly said...am I getting old? haha.

For those who are a little lost flash tattoos are temporary tattoos, but grown up a little I guess. They are typically sparkly and metallic and also are often made to look like jewelry. I think Beyoncé just released a line of them.

Personally I haven't worn any, but I have seen some really cheap bad quality ones. If I were to buy them I would go to the original www.flashtat.com

I tried one earlier this summer for a music festival and couldn't believe how well it stayed on! It lasted about 10 days on me before starting to crack and peel a bit. I danced my buns off with it in 100? weather for 4 days, went swimming in a pool 4 or 5 times and showered every day and it still help up nicely. I purchased mine from Nordstrom rack's clearance beauty department for around 5 dollars.

I feel really old and I'm only 17! I know those metallic temporary tattoos as Snaptats, I had some when I was 5! I had some identical to the 3rd picture that Raneen posted :)

I tried the sephora ones and some other random brand. They stayed on for over a week and I had to remove them myself.

They used to have foil tattoos in vending machines when I was a kid for fifty cents. Always left you with raw itchy skin and were practically impossible to remove! Probably came from China and were made out of terrible ingredients...

They have tons of these things at Ross Dress for Less. They were really popular in our store (Santa Cruz, CA) with the college kids and tourists.

Yeah definitely sarah. when I was a kid we just called these temperary or fake tattoos, I wonder why it was changed to flash tattoos.

Pam I assume it's called Flash because it's skin jewelry Flashy Skin art that brings bling and attention to the skin. (That girl looks Flash or Flashy with all her accessories or clothes).  :)
