Temptu is a pigment in a resin base. It does not stain your skin, it
adheres to your skin and lasts several days. It was developed with
the assistance of Matty Jankowski to emulate tattoos and henna for the
film industry, because actors and actresses can't have henna fading
down through a shooting schedule, and an actor who is tattoed for one
film may need to be unadorned for the next.
Temptu is similar to the natural resin + pigment paints called lac and
alta that are used in South Asian countries to adorn brides and such.
Temptu looks good. It comes in tattoo colors. It comes in henna
colors. It is SAFE. It does not penetrate the skin.
It is NOT henna.
I am not aware of any sites that discuss Temptu, though when I tried
it, it was not difficult use.
It is available at the link below.
