I often wonder what else can people do to beautify their body? Since ancient times people used to paint their bodies and to glamorize their appearance using jewelry and make up. This first of all was an index of social statute. Not much changed these days! We still like to put on rings, bracelets, earrings, etc.; and we still paint out bodies calling it either tattoos, make up or body art. It seams there is nothing left to invent! Well, there actually is!
The designer Yu-Chiao Wang comes up with the idea of a Sun Tattoo. It is actually about a 'wearable' cloth stencil – a robe, with a specific pattern. It requires to stay long enough in the sun or have a good use of UV rays to leave on the skin a beautiful tattoo. The stencil covers only a part of your body allowing sun to hit certain areas. So, why not grab a Sun Tattoo every let's say 3 months?
I think it definitely can become a beauty trend. But watch out! Avoid baking too long, it can be dangerous. You should first consider the type of skin you have, because there are 'sun-unfriendly' skin types. Besides, it is recommended to try sun tattoo only after you have already been in the sun for some time the very season. Oh, and of course it’s better to use this beautifying technique with sunless tanning cream.
Now, I assume that the result of this artistic–tan patterns can be not to ones particular tastes, nonetheless, Yu-Chiao Wang has generated a very original idea to treat our bodies. Of course, it might sound of no interest to people who are into the henna paintings and to those who are dark skinned. Well, we are all into something, isn't it?
