INKED by Dani makes temporary tattoos from Dani Egna's hand-drawn designs, and it started with eyeliner at a college party. I love a tiny, reversible way to try a motif, and this is where I would begin.
INKED by Dani Temporary Tattoos: Where to Start
How Dani Egna made a drawing wearable
INKED by Dani began at a party, not in a boardroom. While a Fine Arts student at USC, Dani Egna doodled on friends with eyeliner, then saw a chance to turn her hand-drawn drawings into temporary tattoos. She graduated in 2015, and her own story says every design still starts as a pencil drawing. I went deeper on a related idea in All My Love Tops and Pants: Where to Start.
I like that the artist's hand stays visible in a product that could so easily feel disposable. The point is not to imitate a permanent tattoo. It is to try a line, a symbol or a little whimsy, then change it with your mood.
Egna first sold to friends and sororities, and what I keep coming back to is how personal the scale of the idea stays: one drawing, one small, reversible decision about how you want to look today.
A tiny drawing for the mood of the day
Every pack has a little point of view built into the name. The Disco Cowgirl Pack is my pick for a concert outfit that needs one playful detail, the Butterfly Dreams Pack and Blooming Pack lean softer and floral, and the Celestial Pack hands the night sky the lead. The Heaven Sent Pack and Feel Good Pack sit in that same gentle mood.
I like that the motif can stay small. The Finger Tats Pack is a subtle first try, and Face Gems can give a bare cheek or eye a brighter finish. Red Ink changes the palette, and Y2K Nostalgia is a wink at the era of tiny, playful motifs. For a first go, I would choose one design and put it where it can be seen without competing with jewelry. What I would skip is planning a whole identity around it.
The joy is that you can change your mind
The nicest thing about a temporary tattoo is the permission to change your mind. Egna's fine-art beginnings make each motif feel like a tiny drawing and not a trend you have to defend, and the range gives a few different moods the same low-stakes canvas.
I would keep a pack in the drawer for the morning when an outfit feels finished but a little too polite. Pick a small symbol, wear it where it catches your eye, and let the week decide what comes next. Although the Deluxe Gift Set is probably how most people end up trying three at once.
