Hide A Tattoo Easily With These Simple Tricks

When I was 16, I decided I was extremely rebellious and got myself a tattoo. And although I don’t regret it, there have certainly been times throughout recent years when I wished that I could cover it up. We should definitely be proud of our body art, but there may be moments when we feel the need to hide tattoos from strict employers, family members, or other similar situations. And thankfully, there is a tutorial for that! One YouTuber, Nibbles Official, created an extremely simple, user-friendly tutorial for hiding tattoos. And the best part? The only supplies needed can be found at your local drug store, although you likely already own most of them! So if you’re looking to temporarily cover your tattoo for a conservative occasion, keep reading for a list of 11 easy steps explaining how to do so! 

Step 1

The first step in tackling your tattoo is to make sure the area is as hair-free as possible. If your ink is somewhere with noticeable hair, this tutorial will be more effective if you shave the area beforehand. 

Step 2

For a flawless concealment job, it’s important to moisturize the area. She uses a face moisturizer in this tutorial, but any moisturizer will do the trick. 

Step 3

To create your base, apply a thin layer of liquid foundation to your tattoo. Don’t expect it to be decently covered after this step, as it just acts as a primer.
