Yes absolutely, have a trail before hand using a special product that is designed to cover tattoos. Best done on smaller areas than larger areas as well.

Hello, Yes makeup artists have the ability to cover tattoos.. You are best to have a trial, I would always encourage you to do a trial and not wing it on the day as it is process that sometimes can take trial and error to get it perfect. Good luck :)

Absolutely this is possible with the right products, the makeup won't budge and will stay put all day/night!

Tattoos can be covered, although depending on the size or tattoo's. As you generally don't cover all the skin, eg back and arms with makeup, it can look obvious as you see the makeup on these areas. It does need a specialist that does this type of work all the time.

Micsroskin is a product especially developed for tattoo and Birthmark coverage.

Dermablend is also a great product too.

Hi Becca, Most Mua's should be able to cover tattoos, we dont use normal makeup for this though we use a different product so just make sure to ask your MUA if they do this

Hi Becca,

Yes, makeup artist can cover tattoos that's only if they knows how to do remedial camouflage perfectly.
