Tattooing Freckles On Your Face Is The New Beauty Craze, And They Look Surprisingly Beautiful
Ever looked in the mirror and thought, "Hey, I really want to cover my face with tattoo freckles?" No? Well, me neither, but as you can see from the pictures below, a lot of other people clearly have.
Freckle tattoos, otherwise known as "freckling", seem to be quite a big thing these days, and even though the idea of cosmetic tattooing isn't exactly new (eyebrow tattoos anybody?), people seem to like these tiny ink freckles because of their semi-permanent nature. Although they look quite obvious at first, they gradually fade to look more natural over the course of a few months, and they apparently disappear completely after about two years. What do you think? Would you get them? Let us know in the comments below!

This must be the first tattoo post on Bored Panda where negative comments are not downvoted. Normally, people stand up and say "It is their individualism", "respect their personal choice" etc. To be honest, these "10+ Typographic Tattoos" will also mostly fade into nothing readable within a few years, but criticising those would get yourself bashed.

I do not understand this trend. I can understand that having a tattoo is interesting and beautiful to look at, and yes, some of these do look pretty. But the biggest thing is: They are fake. Why does that matter? Well, freckles are natural, therefore the people who tattoo this on their face completely miss the point. Freckles are beautiful, "because" of the natural way it developed. Show more love for the facial skin which you already have. Another strange thing about these tattoos are that it's a "trend". Trends are temporary, a tattoo is permanent. Removal is possible, but it doesn't turn out nice all the time. If you want to try a tattoo out, try henna or jagua (for darker skins), since these are also temporary, just like a trend. If you want a permanent tattoo, choose wisely and choose from something you feel you really want to have on your skin, a thing that tells a part of your own story. The moment you choose something that is a trend, can be a thing you will regret later on.

Smooth, even toned complexions were the thing. I remember using lemon masks on my face to try and bleach the freckles out I hated them that much. This is why following beauty trends do's and don'ts are pointless. The one thing you hate about yourself in 10 years will probably be all the rage so dont stress.

I wish I could've had the opportunity to suddenly decide to get them tattooed as an adult, instead of having the s**t kicked out of me for having them as a child.
Julia Carlson 7 years ago
Here were my thoughts. At first I was critical at the idea of synthetic ink going into your body, let alone your face... well, that concerned me. But as I scrolled through the examples shown, I began to see it as cute and even pretty. It feels more of an art form to have them because they're synthetic natural features of a humans natural form. Somewhat. They still seemed pretty unnatural what with size of the freckles. Not all freckles are the same sizes.

okay right, i'm reading through the comments and seeing how everyone says they look horrible. well listen up you m***********s, because the people in the photos who showed their full face were smiling. they were happy, alright? they like their freckles, even if they aren't real. a lot of you probably want something but wont get off your a*s to do it, these people did and it doesn't matter whether you like them or not, it's not your face. you don't need to express how these people are silly, stupid or look bad. sure, maybe you don't like them, that's fine, we all don't have to like the same thing. i personally wouldn't get it done, but these people wanted to so let them do it they put their new 'looks' up for everyone to see because they're happy, they like their freckles and whether you do to is something you have to think about before you say it. i'm sure a lot of you wouldn't like it if you put your face on the internet and got hate for how you look. these people are beautiful.

It doesn't look natural and you'll always want something more because you're that insecure about who you are and how you look. I'm freckled where the sun has never shined and its genetic. This isn't like changing your hair color, you can't change your mind in a few months and change it back. SMH

Here were my thoughts. At first I was critical at the idea of synthetic ink going into your body, let alone your face... well, that concerned me. But as I scrolled through the examples shown, I began to see it as cute and even pretty. It feels more of an art form to have them because they're synthetic natural features of a humans natural form. Somewhat. They still seemed pretty unnatural what with size of the freckles. Not all freckles are the same sizes.

I think that would be a great idea, but the shade of the freckles and the Artist can do better or worse. I will do it this summer and my Artist can tattoo so lightly that you nearly see it.

I love freckles, but these seem too simetrical. Btw, they should post the photos after a few weeks instead of right away after the tat.

I used to try and cover mine up. Now I love them. And NOW they're considered beautiful? If they're FAKE? F**k right off. This is insulting.

Fake eyelashes, fake eyebrows, fake lips, now fake freckles...ladies, you should spend your money on a good therapist instead of throwing money down an endless hole, as it's clear you're never going to be okay with how you look naturally. Shame.

Just like with all tattoos, you need to find a reputable shop/artist near you, and don't cheap out, otherwise it will end up looking like blackheads, as 75% of these examples do. :(

Wow this is r******d. Most of these don't even look natural!! Just weird looking. People with freckles don't usually ONLY get them across their nose and under their eyes and don't have extremely even skin tone every where else. I also got teased FOREVER with my freckles. I have them EVERYWHERE..MILLIONS

okay right, i'm reading through the comments and seeing how everyone says they look horrible. well listen up you m***********s, because the people in the photos who showed their full face were smiling. they were happy, alright? they like their freckles, even if they aren't real. a lot of you probably want something but wont get off your a*s to do it, these people did and it doesn't matter whether you like them or not, it's not your face. you don't need to express how these people are silly, stupid or look bad. sure, maybe you don't like them, that's fine, we all don't have to like the same thing. i personally wouldn't get it done, but these people wanted to so let them do it they put their new 'looks' up for everyone to see because they're happy, they like their freckles and whether you do to is something you have to think about before you say it. i'm sure a lot of you wouldn't like it if you put your face on the internet and got hate for how you look. these people are beautiful.

Not a fan, personally. What's next. Tattooing acne on your face? Just use makeup if you have to try a face with freckles.

What's worse is that even when they fade, they'll still look fake as hell. These tattoo artists have no idea what natural freckles look like.

Irene Adams 7 years ago
These are probably the same people that teased those with real freckles in middle and high school. I don't see this as any different then plastic surgery. It doesn't look natural and you'll always want something more because you're that insecure about who you are and how you look. I'm freckled where the sun has never shined and its genetic. This isn't like changing your hair color, you can't change your mind in a few months and change it back. SMH

You know what pisses me off? How i was made to feel disgusting as a kid because freckles were not the beauty standard. I remember hating them that much trying lemon juice masks to get rid of them. Oh but now they're a trend so people start to think theyre actually cute and pretty? This is why you should never follow what a 'beauty' trend is. I'm not talking about fashion, I'm talking about the stupid trends that made me and my friends feel like potatoes when we were younger but now we're meant to be of envy because suddenly it's cute not diseased looking. F**k that.

I think you all are freaking IDIOTS! My sister was a person who had freckles no matter what, just because she was light skinned and GOT freckles because of the sun she was subjected to. Do you think that SHE would appreciate you a******s doing this in her HONOR??? HELL, NO. She would tell you that you're all a bunch of a******s and tell you to get a freaking LIFE!

It doesn't look "surprisingly good" (quoting this post), it looks bad! No offence to those who have gotten freckles tattooed onto them but why?! Enjoy your natural beauty because it sure does look better!

This pisses me off! As a person covered in freckles these come naturally to me and mine. It sets us apart from everyone else. For years I tried to cover my freckles and now have learned to embrace the beauty in them. I now like the fact that I have them. I really wish people would refrain from their stupidity.

I don't know other people but I have rosacea and I would love to have a smooth and clean skin. When I see young people with perfect skin ruining it I wonder why they just don't use a eyeliner pencil. Put some dots there, go around, get some compliments and when the trend is over, they will still have a perfect skin.

How about no? Freckles on their own do not make a person attractive. Your face has to suit them, and if it DOES you usually have them naturally. If you DON'T have them naturally, DON'T TATTOO THEM ACROSS YOUR FACE!
