This is a synthetic skin sheet in A5 format (14.8×21 cm), handmade, designed as a practice medium as close to human skin as possible — including in terms of stretchability. It is useful for beginners building their hand for tattooing, microblading, or micropigmentation, as well as for established artists who want to test a new technique or present their work on a realistic medium. Being thick enough, it can be tattooed on both sides and cut to the size or shape you need.
I'm a beginner — is it suitable for me or just for professionals?▾
It is designed exactly for both situations. Beginners use it to develop hand control, lines, and shading before working on real skin, while established artists use it to test new techniques or create presentation pieces on a realistic medium. The fact that it simulates human skin, including its stretchability, makes it a proper transition step between drawing on paper and the real thing.
Does the stencil stick to it like on real skin?▾
Yes. The material allows stencil fluids to be applied, so you can practice the entire process: cleaning the surface, applying the transfer solution, positioning the stencil, and drying it. The recommendation is to clean and dry the surface well before the transfer, just as you would on a client.
Can I tattoo on both sides of the sheet?▾
Yes, the sheet is thick enough to be tattooed on both sides, which effectively doubles your practice surface. Additionally, you can cut it to the desired size or shape, so from a single A5 sheet (14.8×21 cm) you can get multiple practice pieces.
Does it work for microblading or permanent makeup, not just tattooing?▾
Yes, it is also used for practicing microblading and micropigmentation/permanent makeup procedures, not just for classic tattooing. Because it simulates the behavior of human skin, you can work with the same tools and techniques you would use in the actual procedure.
How do I clean it during work and can it be reused after tattooing?▾
During work, you wipe off excess pigment with a tissue — the surface cleans without stains or ink marks outside the work area, so the result stays clean. However, the pigment introduced into the material remains there, like in a real tattoo: the sheet cannot be 'reset.' After using both sides, you keep it as a portfolio piece or discard it and move on to a new one.
Can I use the same needles and machine as for working on clients?▾
Yes, the idea is exactly to work with your usual equipment and techniques, so the practice transfers directly to real work. The only strict rule: needles and cartridges used on synthetic skin are single-use — never transfer them from the practice medium to human skin, but discard them in a sharps container after the session.
