IT’S THE ART OF ILLUSION

Models use henna and temporary tattoos to achieve a look. It’s an inexpensive way to see if you really like it.

Temporary tattoos are used widely, because, quite simply, most modeling agencies don’t allow tattoos. The models who have them usually have to cover them up with heavy concealer.

You can find temporary tattoos at lots of stores, including drugstores and costume and novelty shops. They’re fun, painless, and totally removable.

There are also salons that will do a henna tat­too. They last longer (two to four weeks) and they have been around forever.
