Never buy fake skin for tattoo practice! Cheap, reusable, easy to make!

[@kristinasportal]

Sent this to my niece who is an aesthetician. She does permanent cosmetics. No idea why it popped up in my feed, but so glad it did. I wish I had the money to get a bunch of tattoos.

[@Cultonica]

It will indeed be very useful for permanent cosmetics artists!

Did you ever try it, if so, how good did it work out?

[@Emilia-i9o1s]

@@inunez7271yes I tried it. It works great just like in the video just make sure to use the same proportions

[@andrewlyon2707]

Definitely going to try this just thinking if you want to evaluate your needle depth don’t use the foundation leave it clear

[@Cultonica]

That won’t exactly work as you think it does, bit you can try and see 😊

This is great! It's about time someone made a video on this. Much appreciated thank you!

[@brandmasis]

I just tried it out, I was able to make a medium size piece, 3mm thick, for around 1$. Now I gotta tattoo on it! Thank so you much Edit: I tried it out, it's feels soft but elastic, no problem applying vaseline to it, I will make more of these and try different needles

[@Cultonica]

Glad you’ve enjoyed it! Thankyou for your feedback

[@Cultonica]

You are very welcome!

[@krystalsthompson93]

Ok! But how long does it last? Before it molds or melts… if it melts! Hopefully you see this and answer it for me!

[@clintbancroft8112]

That’s a great recipe, feels pretty convincing. Would I add more gelatine to increase the density?

[@Cultonica]

gelatine and glycerine should be in the same proportion, however you can try decreasing the amount of foundation

[@bareboneeccentrics921]

This video is freaking awesome. Wonderful instructions straight to the point and simple. And good demonstration as well.

[@Cultonica]

Oh thankyou! :)

[@TristanBush-j1q]

That’s brilliant. Does it melt by chance after awhile or does it stay in that form

[@Cultonica]

It stays in that form, but you can melt it if you put it in the microwave again

[@randyshockey2847]

Going to be trying this next weekend. Thanks for the tip. Also how long will the fake skin last after it's made?

[@Cultonica]

It doesn’t have expiration date, but I’d keep it away from the sun and heating objects, it will melt with heat

[@joshmill9221]

Would these skin spoil? Since they’re made of gelatin?

[@pedrosnoop5491]

Nossa muito obrigado me salvou , irei fazer essa pele parabéns pela dica

[@kevinstrosnider1545]

So I made a piece and liked the texture but do you have any tips on wiping the ink off? It was very hard to wipe the ink off after each line I pulled. Had to use alcohol to get it to come off. Other than that I like it better than Reelskin which is what I always use. Any tips would be very appreciated thank you guys!

[@Cultonica]

Before tattooing it try applying a very thin layer of vaseline, just as you would do with real skin

[@kevinstrosnider1545]

@@Cultonica ok I'll give it a try. Thank you.

[@Not_Yuto_Horigome]

[@frogicus]

Great video ! Does this skin last for a porfolio of work ? Does it degrade or shrink in any way ? Thanks 👍🏼

[@Cultonica]

Doesn’t shrink but will collect dust, so I’d advise to cover it with a plastic film

[@Cultonica]

And store in a cool place, it will melt when heated

[@shari.captures5255]

This is super cool! Is there a way of making it without a microwave?

[@Cultonica]

Yes! There is a water bath heating method that you can do on a regular stove

[@shari.captures5255]

Amazing! How long do I let it sit in a water bath?

[@Gavvamans]

Здравствуйте. Для вашей крышки вы использовали 1 порцию? У меня была маленькая крашка и в ней получилось небольшая кожа и тонкая слишко

[@Cultonica]

здравствуйте) пропорционально умножайте все ингредиенты на 2, на 3, на 4 в зависимости от желаемой толщины, а то что уже получилось можете повторно переплавить в микроволновке и снова залить в форму

[@rebekahbaldock2673]

Don't currently have the money for the good practice skins out there and in a moment of ddeperation, clicked into this video. I'll try this tomorrow!

[@Cultonica]

double or triple the ingredients to have thicker skin a a result. Feedback will be appreciated 🙂

[@n3cz10]

I dont wanna say that it doesn't work but here are the problems I faced: 1. The foundation makeup thing doesn't blend with the mixture, it just stays on the surface and on my hands 2. its kinda crumbly, I used glycerine for cooking, not from the pharmacy, maybe thats the problem? 3. It becomes very jelly like when I add the gelatine, not liquid like in the video 4. its sticky 5. The ink doesn't seem to stay in

[@Cultonica]

Good day! here's how I'd solve the above problems : 1. Stop the microwave process more often to give the contents more mixes 2.As long as glycerin is pure, there should't be a problem 3. try increasing the heat, because the only way it becomes liquid is by melting. 4. maybe your gelatin or glycerine has pre added added sugars?

[@kevinstrosnider1545]

I suppose if you want to make bigger pieces just double the recipe? Im having trouble thinking of what to use for a mold/form. Thank you so very much for this im sure its cheaper to make than to buy fake skin.

[@Cultonica]

That’s correct, or if you want to make it a thicker layer. All flat tray like pieces can be used as a mould, container lids do well for me

[@kevinstrosnider1545]

@@Cultonica thank you!

[@gabrieldore3017]

I tried it and the top skin leaks the ink, it's really messy. Do you have a recommendation? The skin also tends to split even if my voltage is very low.

[@devvonish]

This was great, thank you so much!! The only part I'm not quite understanding is the 'reusable' aspect

[@Cultonica]

It can be remelted by heating it up, it will ofcourse have the ink inside, but as long as you need it for simple practice, it can be melted and reused many times

[@devvonish]

@@Cultonica You are so wonderful; thank you. This was by far the best recipe I've tried and has helped me in so many ways.

Anyone ever try making it with silicone and corn starch? Any differences or which is better??

[@cagelavey]

can you frame them and do they last since you’re using gelatin like if you did a dope ass piece on one it’s something you could keep forever?

[@patrykpilarski2071]

I bought all the ingredients and I'm about to try it. Have anyone done it and it really looks like on the video? What about time in the microwave? It's 8, 8 and 5 second enough? Isn't there any chance that I will mess up the microwave? (Have flatmates). But the idea looks great! Thanks for the video! ;)

[@Cultonica]

that really depends on the power of your microwave you can try shorter periods of time if afraid to mess up, keep mixing and heating until it's fully melted and BEFORE it starts to boil (you'll notice it bubbling up when it begins to boil)

[@fearthebeard1801]

So I made this yesturday. I made a a piece 12"x8" about a 1/4" thick. It seemed like it would be great. But it dosnt hold the ink...it's like it just way too soft.Anyway to fix to make it a bit more dense? My needle seems to slice it up

[@Chrishernandez283]

Yes I did add same amount of corn starch and I did come out really good

[@Benadryl_beetle]

How does this method compare to silicone and cornstarch in your opinion?

[@Cultonica]

There are many different silicone types, so it’s quite hard to compare to such a variety, what specific comparison are you looking for? I don’t know what you mean by corn starch

[@sl5154]

Great, thank you!!

[@mladennikolic4394]

It's a bit hard to clean up, but it is really like a real skin

[@Cultonica]

use a very thin layer of vaseline in the process

[@jasonm982]

I tried it, but the skin was very sticky any idea why and seemed to break easily

[@Cultonica]

you may have added too much foundation to it

[@kingcrap6774]

What do you wipe with? I found vaseline is just penetraiting the skin and smear

[@Cultonica]

Paper towel with water to wipe, a very thin layer of vaseline before needle touches the skin

Will this work in an oven? I do not have a microwave as I am living off grid 😅

[@Cultonica]

Then you can use a method called "bain-marie" or "water bath" it’s a cooking technique used to gently heat food or to keep it warm over a period of time. It involves placing a container (such as a bowl or pot) of food inside a larger, shallow pan filled with hot water. The water surrounds the food container with gentle heat, allowing the food to cook evenly and preventing it from overheating or curdling. An oven is not a good option though.
