Despite its small size, the beautiful hummingbird continues to mesmerize men and women of all ages through its delicate and fascinating appearance. If you want to get a new temporary tattoo that in modern symbolism represents love, life, and lightness of being, a colorful hummingbird is the perfect visual representation of all these, and more.
The fasciation people have with hummingbirds is not just a modern trend. Since ancient times, hummingbirds were perceived as a representation of life on the fast lane, but also of life in a different dimension in time. Another interesting meaning was attributed to the way the wings of the hummingbird flutter in a specific pattern, resembling the number “8”. 8 is a symbol of infinity, but also of eternity and continuity.
For those looking to get a hummingbird tattoo, it might be also interesting to know that in the Native American culture, the hummingbird was considered a messenger from the Gods. Seen as a symbol of hope and good fortune, hummingbirds were oftentimes mummified and turned into amulets for good health and good fortune.
Show your own delicate and playful side by decorating your skin with this small, but meaningful, hummingbird temporary tattoo. From the point of the beak to the pleasant blue-green color of the body, this design is artfully created to offer a look you'll love. The hummingbird tattoo can also represent adaptability and resilience, so this temporary tattoo could help publicly announce a merger, or other change that a business has gone through to maintain prosperity.
Hummingbirds beat their wings so fast, they become a blur. Fortunately, you can apply or remove this small, temporary hummingbird tattoo almost as quickly.

What you’ll need:
Cloth, a towel, or a sponge.
A little bit of warm water.
Scissors (depending on design)
Let’s Get Started
Optional Use scissors to cut out your tattoo. If the design is NOT part of a sheet with multiple tattoos, this won’t be necessary.
Step 1 Decide where you want to apply the tattoo. These aren’t permanent but we pride ourselves on the lifespan of our tattoos, so make sure you have it where you want it for up to 7 days. When you have a perfect position, peel the plastic cover off of your temporary tattoo.
Step 2 Place the paper on your body with the tattoo side on your skin. Apply pressure evenly. (Don’t worry if you don’t get it spot-on the first time. Even if the tattoo isn’t sticky anymore, the image will still transfer.)
Step 3 Get your cloth, towel or sponge wet with warm water and dab it on top of the tattoo paper, covering the entire tattoo. Be sure to completely saturate the paper because the warm water is what releases the tattoo from the paper. Hold this for 30-60 seconds to ensure the whole tattoo is transferred.
Step 4 Peel the paper off to get a look at your new body art!
Step 5 This step is our little secret. Before you go show off your new tat, dab off the excess water and rub just a tiny bit of lotion on it to add a little vibrancy and extend the lifespan of your tattoo!
All done! At this point, the tattoo application is done and looking great. It will stay on for 5 days with normal wear-and-tear, and a few days if you’re out there rolling around in the mud!
Our Tattoo Gone™ Temporary Tattoo Removal Wipes are the fastest and safest way to remove your temporary tattoo. We include one with every tattoo you order. Our Removal Wipes are skin-safe for all ages, and let you remove any temporary tattoo with ease. Simply unfold and apply the wipe over the area where your temporary tattoo is placed, and gently massage until it’s removed entirely.
You can also use other items generally found around the home, such as eye makeup remover, baby oil, or rubbing alcohol. Here are some easy steps:
Step 1
Saturate a cotton swab or soft cloth with eye makeup remover, baby oil, or rubbing alcohol. Apply generously over the tattoo’s surface and, for best results, allow it to soak for 1 minute.
Step 2
Using the soaked cloth or cotton swab, gently massage the tattoo in circular motions. Be patient, do not scrub. Repeat the process as needed. Do not attempt to remove with soap and water.
Step 3
Still have some stragglers? Take a piece of household tape and wrap it around your index and middle fingers with the sticky side out. With a dabbing motion, gently pull the small left-overs from your skin.
That's all there is to it! You're now ready for your next body art!

DESIGNING YOUR OWN CUSTOM TATTOO

Can I make changes to my order?
Any changes requested after you place your order may delay production time and be subject to change fees. Please reach out to Sales@TemporaryTattoos.com to make your request.
How many colors can I have in my design?
All of our classic temporary tattoos are printed in full-color, using a CMYK 4-color imprinting process, so your design can have as many colors as you would like. Because we use proprietary skin-safe, cosmetic-grade inks, we cannot match exact PMS colors; however, we can achieve very close equivalents.
Will I receive a digital proof of my artwork for custom temporary tattoos?
We do not automatically provide digital proofs. Please review your image as it is designed on the design canvas.
Free Tattoo Wipes
We will include one free wipe per tattoo up to 50 free Tattoo Gone Wipes for stock tattoo orders.
Are there any charges for artwork touch-up or set-up for my custom tattoo order?
There are never any charges for touch-up or set-up of your artwork.
Can I have my website or other information printed on the back of my custom temporary tattoos?
Yes! We will print your website, social media accounts, a promotion code, or any other information, in black ink, on the back of your custom temporary tattoos at no charge. Please note this information in when you place your order and upload your artwork.
What artwork formats do you accept for custom temporary tattoos?
We can work with nearly every type of digital file, with the exception of CorelDraw files (.cdr) or artwork saved in Microsoft Office formats (.docx, .pptx, .xlsx). We prefer files with higher resolutions, color-corrected, flattened CMYK. If your file is a .jpg, .png, or .psd, please be sure the resolution is a minimum of 300 dpi at the tattoo size you are ordering. Any vector .eps or .ai files should have the fonts saved/converted as outlines and all placed images should be embedded.
Can I request pre-production samples before placing an order?
Unfortunately, we do not produce pre-production samples.
How are my custom and in-stock temporary tattoos packaged?
Each custom temporary tattoo is individually cut to size and has a clear, protective cover. Custom temporary tattoos are bundled in quantities of 200 and bulk bagged. In-stock temporary tattoos are delivered in a protective polybag or package. Special packaging options are available. Give us a call and we can work out just about any package no matter how complicated.
Our temporary tattoos last 3-5 days, depending on the size and placement of the tattoo. For the best application, be sure your skin is dry and free of oil, lotion and makeup. Choose a smooth, hair-free area that doesn’t crease or stretch when you move. Once applied, our tattoos are waterproof, so they won’t come off in the shower or pool.
Of course! Our tattoos are safe and non-toxic for all ages. We manufacture them right here in the U.S.A. using skin-safe, FDA certified cosmetic-grade inks. All our tattoos meet US, Canadian, and European Union safety standards for cosmetic and toy products. Certification documentation is available upon request. Learn more here.

Our temporary tattoos are fast and easy to apply; and all you need is water and a wet cloth. Your skin should be clean, dry, and free of lotion, oils, and makeup. First, remove the clear, protective top sheet. Then, press the tattoo firmly onto your skin with the design facing down. Hold a wet cloth against the back of the tattoo, press down and make sure to wet the paper thoroughly. Wait 30 seconds and slowly peel off the paper backing. Gently rinse the image with water for the best result and allow the tattoo to dry before touching or covering with clothing. Every TemporaryTattoos.com tattoo has application instructions printed on the back as well.
