Glitter tattoos for your party or event
Glitter tattoos are temporary tattoos made entirely with cosmetic glitter and skin-safe glue. They usually stay visible for 4 to 6 days and are very popular with both younger and older children.
The Spinnekoppen team offers a wide tattoo collection with carefully selected designs from multiple suppliers, plus custom picks from our own library. We provide 100+ options and can offer glitter tattoos as a standalone activity or combined with face painting.
The advantage is not only durability. Children can also get multiple tattoos, especially on less crowded events. It is common to see happy participants fully decorated with both face paint and glitter tattoos.
One glitter tattoo artist can typically apply around 18 tattoos per hour.
- Do glitter tattoos always need to be combined with face painting?
- No. In some cases, such as pool parties or very warm summer events, glitter tattoos can even be the better choice.
- Are glitter tattoos eco-friendly?
- We are gradually replacing traditional glitter with bio-glitter where possible, following EU guidance. However, single-use stencils are still part of the process. If you want a lower-waste option, choose airbrush tattoos or hand-drawn glitter designs.
- How long does a glitter tattoo last?
- With good care, around 5 days. They can get wet, but avoid rubbing with a towel.
- How do we remove glitter tattoo residue?
- Use disinfecting alcohol.
- Do you sell your stencils?
- No. We do not sell stencils ourselves and source them from multiple suppliers.
Glitter tattoos cost EUR 60 per hour, per artist. We calculate travel costs at 0.38/km. We add this separately to your quote, because our artists are based in different locations and travel distances can vary.
