You Can Now Get Temporary Tattoos Of Your Best Mate's Face

Many of us have got a tattoo of something that means a lot to us - usually a tribute to our football club, but sometimes something like 'Mum' going across your bicep or, erm, Ian Beale on your thigh (each to their own and all that).

But we all know that the person that means the most is your best mate - the one who's been your wingman on nights out, played Fifa with you until 6am and will always be able to handle the banter. They've been with you through thick and thin... yes, including that phase you had when you decided to wear rosary beads with a v-neck t-shirt.

Well, now there is a new way to show your allegiance to your brother from another mother without pissing off your actual mother - and that's in the form of a temporary tatt.

Yep, what better way to tell someone you love them than to get their face? It's a no brainer, and thanks to Esty seller Lilimandrill, the dream is now a reality.

The unusual personalised gifts are handmade to order and start at just under £54 for ten prints going up to £252 for 500 prints, so it depends just how much your best mate really means to you as to how much you're willing to spend.

The seller writes: "No photoshop effect: real hands and real pencil!

"You'll get a unique, precise and delicate piece of art just for you and your guests."

The original tatts have clearly gone down an absolute treat with customers, as the site is inundated with positive reviews.

One buyer wrote: "They arrived in time and are so amazing. My entire graduation party wore them and we had a blast! Thank you for adding your artwork to my special day."

A couple who purchased the tatts as party favours on their wedding day wrote: "These came out absolutely perfect and I can't wait for our wedding guests to see them! Thanks again!"

A third buyer gushed: "We absolutely love our custom made tattoos! The design process through email was super easy and we couldn't be happier with the result."

While the temporary tattoos are good for wholesome things like wedding favours, we've got two words that spring to mind with these: Stag do.

Forget the matching shit t-shirts at the airport, now the squad can literally wear the stag's face, which is genius and terrifying all the same time. Just like the do itself...
