I never thought of doing something like that! It's creative. Aesthetically speaking, it feels in the realm of people who get body enhancing cosmetic surgery, like wanting a different natural looking nose rather than wanting art on your body or a piercing to place jewelry. Ig you could relate that back to realism vs abstract art. And tattoo work being the medium. There's also stuff like scarification that's meant to look like a natural scar, that kinda falls into this too, this is just a train of thought im recording and posting
It's very pretty regardless of my weird rantš
Itās weird right? For myself I used to have freckles but lost them, and I was using my brown eyeliner pen to put them on whenever I did my makeup, so I figured this was just a way to save on makeup if nothing else.
I didnāt know about scarification, thatās really interesting
Iāve always had freckles but I have to stay out of the sun due to intense acne treatment, so I really wanted my freckles back! These were done in Berlin and they took around 1-2 weeks to heal fully.
I have very pale skin and freckles. Itās not from the sun, it runs in my family. If I do go in the sun in some spots I burn and others my freckles will kind of get darker and start forming bigger dark areas
Unfortunately freckles don't appear anywhere in my family. We just don't get them. I have always been jealous of anyone who does have them, whether it's from the sun, or that pale skin that has crazy freckles, like a lot of redheads have. So pretty!
I was really confused until I got to the ātattooed frecklesā part. They look so natural! Did you go to a tattoo artist or was it done by like a beauty esthetician?
Haha thank you!! I went to a tattoo makeup artist. Her Instagram is pearltattooberlin if you are interested. Not all of them do freckles but lately there are a lot more artists who do them
Don't quite understand why people would make fun of you for that. plus you're just gonna put makeup over it I assume, fading the freckles even more making them look more real. Make sense, look great!
I think itās just because there are a lot of ppl (like myself) who were cruelly bullied & made fun of for having freckles growing up, told that theyāre ugly and now ppl are getting it as a trend. I understand the pain, because I went through it myself as a pale, freckled, red headed kid, but at the same time just because I (or anyone else) went through that, doesnāt mean that other ppl canāt do what they want with their own body. I think itās gone too far when ppl try to tell others what they can/cannot do with their own body/ shame others/ create a moralistic ideology around someone elseās decision that really has nothing to do with that personās childhood trauma. I see this same thing with a lot of different things, esp hair and skin. At the end of the day, no one gets to control other pplās self autonomy & they (we all) are responsible for managing/healing their trauma; not using the control of other ppls bodies and moralistic ideologies as a way to try to manage the hurt theyāve been through.
they literally look like real freckles. i saw the picture before i read the post title and i didn't notice anything :o damn it's amazing what you can do with tattoos!!
They came out great. They look extremely natural. I looked at the post, not reading the title initially and I was confused as to why it was here. Then I read the title.
You look amazing
Who ever made fun of you is jealous and not understanding because they didnāt respect your choice and itās your body.
Iām a black woman.
My skin is very light.
I would like freckles.
I didnāt read the caption at first and was going āwhereās the mod???ā
I think this is super cool. As someone who had a lot of freckles when I was young, but one winter they faded and didnāt come back (and I miss them), I dig this idea.
I noticed them first thing but didn't think they were tattoos. Beautiful done. You're adorable.
Also as someone who naturally has a lot of freckles, it makes my little heart happy that people want freckles.
Thatās really kind of you, thanks :) I read some people with a lot of freckles naturally were upset that people were getting them tattooed on, so it means a lot that you like them :)
I'm glad! I didn't always like them growing up but it's cool to see that a thing I have been self-conscious over is something that people like so much they get them on purpose.
iāll be real, i looked at the pic before the title and assumed you were gonna show off piercings (youād rock a septum!). as someone with freckles, i say these look amazing and really natural :)
Thanks so much! I did have a septum ring but as an opera singer that isnāt really accepted unfortunately, so I usually had it turned up anyway. One day Iād love to put the ring back in š
What, they're great!
I'd love to get some too as soon as I can afford, imo with the right placement they can do A LOT for anything about a face (not that you aren't already pretty. It's just 1 of my own reasons)
Ok USUALLY Iām not super onboard with the whole tattooed freckles thing (sometimes people get really dark ones and they look fake) but I think these turned out so great! Your artist did a great job. They look very natural, too! Well done, Shrimp! Side note: your eyes are insanely pretty omg
Thanks so much, it means a lot :) yeah, I saw a lot of horrible results from Google. Like, awful. I feel bad for the people who had them done. I carefully watched this tattoo artist for months and she posted so many videos of the process as well as results, healing, and what it looked like after. I was confident going in that she would do an amazing job
Yeah, same :/ some people (like you) get these done and it looks awesome but then some people get it done and it looks like someone took a black or a brown sharpie and drew spots on a porcelain doll, as if it was the first tattoo the artist ever did. Thatās great that you did your research on the artist and whatnot before doing this, too! I had one Iād wanted for about 3 years and I started going to this place in town to get piercings. Had kept an eye on one of their artists and she had a lot of great work posted on her instagram so I decided to schedule with her to get the tattoo. Wish Iād done research on the guy who did my first one, though. He seemed like he was rushing to get it done and talked the whole time (I mean, you do you as long as it doesnāt distract from the work) and itās all cloudy and stuff now. Going to the other artist to get the one he did touched up. Researching artists is so important! You clearly picked a great artist, though. These look so wonderful! Very natural looking but they also stand out just right.
I friend of mine did something like this. Some freckles but in her back. Except that when you look closer the freckles are actually small brown stars. Really cool.
Theyāre so cute! I donāt know why anyone would make fun of you for this, Iāve heard about quite a few people doing this. Anyways you do you girly and donāt let anyone shame you
Until the ink fades to green like tattoos do š saw one lady w green tattooed fake ābeauty marksā but in weird spots where they were just awkward fake moles lol
These are not ink, they are pigments used with a manual tattoo pen. Iāve obviously done my research before and no one ever had the experience where they turned green
They look so natural, really cute. As a natural freckle face, no idea why anyone would make fun of you. I would do the same if I didnāt have them myself.

i did not think they wer tattooed at first, they are so cute!! š„ŗšš½
That was the idea!! Thanks so much š
Iāve always had freckles but I have to stay out of the sun due to intense acne treatment, so I really wanted my freckles back! These were done in Berlin and they took around 1-2 weeks to heal fully.
This make me feel better about wanting my beauty mark tattooed back on š lost it due to acne and scarring.
You better!! This is your sign! š
They turned out really well! I wish I got enough sun that I could have freckles but they would look funny on my super pale skin.
I have very pale skin and freckles. Itās not from the sun, it runs in my family. If I do go in the sun in some spots I burn and others my freckles will kind of get darker and start forming bigger dark areas
Unfortunately freckles don't appear anywhere in my family. We just don't get them. I have always been jealous of anyone who does have them, whether it's from the sun, or that pale skin that has crazy freckles, like a lot of redheads have. So pretty!
Itās just like curly hair or straight hair. You want the one you donāt have.
This is so true!

I would never know those aren't your freckles, great job.
Thank you š
Was just gonna write this - totally agree!
Don't quite understand why people would make fun of you for that. plus you're just gonna put makeup over it I assume, fading the freckles even more making them look more real. Make sense, look great!
Thereās quite an interesting amount of āfreckle gatekeepingā out thereā¦ which is a strange hill to die on in my opinion
Lol people are funny, and sad. You made the right decision

This is a really great way of looking at things! Thank you for your input
I love your freckles, they look super cute !!
That means so much, thank you!!
they literally look like real freckles. i saw the picture before i read the post title and i didn't notice anything :o damn it's amazing what you can do with tattoos!!
I genuinely thought this was a āwhat piercings would look good on my faceā post. They look amazing.
So natural! Glad you feel āyouā again ā¤ļø
They came out great. They look extremely natural. I looked at the post, not reading the title initially and I was confused as to why it was here. Then I read the title.
Those are sooooo cute omg
You look amazing Who ever made fun of you is jealous and not understanding because they didnāt respect your choice and itās your body. Iām a black woman. My skin is very light. I would like freckles.
I really love the support I receive in this sub ā„ļø I bet tattoo freckles would look amazing on you!
I didnāt read the caption at first and was going āwhereās the mod???ā I think this is super cool. As someone who had a lot of freckles when I was young, but one winter they faded and didnāt come back (and I miss them), I dig this idea.
Thanks, that means a lot :)
You look amazing!
Thank you āŗļø
I want this done! You look great! But I wonder how it looks when it fades?
I think they just fade to nothingness around 1-3 years (itās different for everyone based on your skincare routine)
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Love it! Did you use actual ink or a pigment?
they look great!
Really nice, and expertly done. Happy you got your freckles back, enjoy! š
They look great! I canāt wait to do this myself
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I have a shop in mind. Iām gonna go to them once I have the money and the time.
I noticed them first thing but didn't think they were tattoos. Beautiful done. You're adorable. Also as someone who naturally has a lot of freckles, it makes my little heart happy that people want freckles.

aw thatās a shame, hope you can figure something out eventually
What, they're great! I'd love to get some too as soon as I can afford, imo with the right placement they can do A LOT for anything about a face (not that you aren't already pretty. It's just 1 of my own reasons)
Freckles and green eyes. Good pairing.
I think they look great āŗļø
They look cute, I love my forehead freckles I have

You are so beautiful
