Wiser's Airbrush TattooPro Stencil - Mermaids

The Wiser's Airbrush TattooPro Stencil - Mermaids is a mermaid design by bodypaint and graffiti artist Wiser Oner. This 20 x 25 cm Mylar stencil features a mermaid with long hair next to palm tree silhouettes, dolphin shapes, a second mermaid on a rock and sandy beach elements you can combine freely. In just a few minutes you can create a stunning temporary mermaid tattoo for a summer festival, themed party or theatre performance.

Thanks to the positive and negative parts that push out of the sheet, you can combine this design endlessly with other TattooPro Stencils. Every time a unique airbrush tattoo.

TattooPro is a professional airbrush stencil range developed for body artists. The Mylar material is solvent-proof and with proper care lasts hundreds of uses, so a stencil pays for itself quickly.

How to use the TattooPro Stencil

Start by cleaning the skin with isopropyl alcohol (99%). A grease-free surface gives the ink better adhesion.

Place the stencil on the skin and hold it firmly. Airbrush the base shape first through the negative part, then lay the positive part back down for the fine details of the tail, hair and beach motifs. Build up in thin layers.

Want a longer-lasting result? Set the tattoo with setting powder and gently pat the powder on with a powder brush or soft sponge.

Working with children? TattooPro stencils are designed for cosmetic airbrush inks suitable for the skin. Always check the ink label for the minimum age recommendation.

Extra tips for a professional result

• Avoid smudges and keep your hands clean. Wear nitrile gloves so the hand holding the stencil stays ink-free.
• Add texture and spatter effects. Use Airbrush Stipple Tips to add focused spatter exactly where you want it - perfect for a pearlescent shimmer on the mermaid tail or a water-droplet effect around the dolphins.
• Work from large to fine. An Airbrush Compressor with pressure control lets you dial in the exact pressure for both broad areas and the fine details of the hair and palm fronds.
