Beyonce for Temptu: Dereon Temporary Tattoos

Beyonce under her mother, Tina Knowles’ fashion label, House of Dereon has teamed up with airbrush makeup company Temptu to create a new limited edition line of temporary tattoos.

“The look is 1960s pin-up meets futuristic biker chic”- Beyoncé for Deréon

Released earlier this month, there are three collectible variations of the tattoo kit ($16), each consisting of 8 Temporary Tattoo Transfer sheets (2 each of 4 designs) and 10 Tattoo application pads; cleverly packaged in what looks like a CD cover. Temptu has also released a DELUXE EDITION ($34), which is composed of all three kits and a few added bonuses.
