Koi Fish is swimming upstream on your arm, which is more cardio than most of us managed this week. This temporary tattoo stays put for up to 2 weeks, plenty of time to live with the design before you commit to ink. Ideal for anyone drawn to Japanese-inspired artwork and bold, detailed styles with heavy shading. At 15cm by 23cm it sits beautifully on the upper arm or thigh, worn solo or layered with other pieces from our collection.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the koi tattoo last?
It lasts up to two weeks. Wear time varies with your skin type, placement and aftercare, and high-friction areas like hands fade faster.
Why does it look pale when I first put it on?
The genipa ink goes on light, then develops over 24 to 48 hours into a realistic blue-black tattoo. Give it a day or two to come through fully before you judge the colour.
Can I shower or swim with it?
It handles everyday showers once it's developed. Avoid long soaks, saunas and scrubbing during the first 24 hours while it's still settling.
How do I remove it or make it fade faster?
It fades on its own as the top layer of your skin renews, so it can't be washed or peeled off instantly. Gentle exfoliating over the high-friction areas can help it along.
Where should I put this design?
At 15 x 23 cm the koi flows best down the outer upper arm or along a forearm, and it's a good way to test how a half sleeve would sit.
Should I do a patch test first?
Yes, we recommend a patch test before your first use.
