Looking for a way to add extra sparkle to your event? Twisted Turtle of Charlotte’s glitter tattoos are a fun and unique addition to any party or event. Whether it’s a birthday, festival, or corporate gathering, our glitter tattoos provide a shimmering, long-lasting touch that guests of all ages will love. Our glitter tattoos are waterproof, lasting up to seven days, making them perfect for outdoor events or pool parties.

How It Works

Each glitter tattoo takes about 2–3 minutes to apply, including selecting a stencil, placing it, brushing on adhesive, and layering the glitter.

This means:

  • Up to 25 kids can be served per hour, depending on cooperation and age

  • One artist can serve around 40–50 children during a 2-hour event

  • Tattoos are applied to arms or hands and dry almost instantly

  • More water resistant than normal face paint

  • Can last up to several days

  • Generally NOT applied to face. Glitter in your child’s eyes doesn’t help them sparkle.

NOTE: For larger events, consider multiple artists or extended time to keep lines short and guests happy.

Glitter Tattoos That Steal the Spotlight

Glitter tattoos bring sparkle, color, and just the right amount of edge. They’re quick to apply, built to last, and guaranteed to turn heads. At Twisted Turtle, we turn bare arms into dazzling works of party art—fast, fun, and unforgettable.

If you want shimmer, smiles, and serious style at your next event, this is how you do it.

Bold Designs, Skin-Safe Shine

We use skin-safe adhesive and cosmetic-grade glitter in a wide range of colors and stencils. From unicorns and dragons to stars and skulls, every tattoo is applied with care and dries in seconds—no mess, no fuss.

  • Sparkly designs applied in under 3 minutes
