Jewelry designer, Cheryl Eve Acosta, is the creator behind TATTUAGE — Metal Tattoo Jewelry. Her love for body adornment led to her designing precious metal jewelry that adheres to the skin without the commitment inking has. Her unique idea emerged from a shadow projection on the body while traveling in the USA.

TATTUAGE Jewelry recently debuted during Kansas City Fashion Week (S/S Summer 2017) introducing a new and unique method of wearing fashion jewelry. TATTUAGE provides women a non-permanent body accessory that is reusable, interchangeable, and customizable — allowing you to create unique, personalized, expressions.

THE DESIGN PROCESS

TATTUAGE is a reusable metal tattoo that adheres to the skin. TATTUAGE is a different form of adornment that bridges the gap between jewelry and tattooing, without the permanency of traditional body inking. Our brass designs are made for those who enjoy expressing their personal style in a unique way.

TATTUAGE is as versatile as you are and appropriate for all occasions—from a simple brunch with friends to a ballroom gala. Our designs are sold in sets, which include body adhesive, remover, polishing cloth, and inspiration booklet.

The brass metal jewels are reusable and interchangeable allowing you to explore infinite ways of styling your designs. As you add more styles to your set you can mix and match to further customize your look!

Each TATTUAGE design is created through a unique process. First, our designs are sketched onto paper. These renderings are then digitally transferred and cut into metal. Numerous prototypes are developed in various thicknesses, sizes, and finishes, to produce and perfect the final product.

TATTUAGE has been tested with numerous types of skin adhesives and latex-free products. We find it works best on flat surfaces, such as the back and chest area. However, our designs are lightly malleable, allowing you to contour each piece to your body.

INSPIRATION

TATTUAGE jewelry was inspired by the world that lives between ephemeral shadows and the art of permanent tattoos. Our precious metal designs originated from a shadow projection of plants on the body, which was later translated into brass metal jewelry. The worldly practice of tattooing developed the naming of each style after a different location in the world. Some destinations include Fiji, Sydney, Ibiza, Bali, Sydney, and Singapore.
