Flash Tattoos has created a collection of colorful temporary tattoos that is made for modern hippies and young girls alike -- although the two can go hand-in-hand easily. The Flash Tattoos come in bright colors and jewelry styles including [bracelets, necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flaire-co) and more. With fun patterns and versatile options, they can be [mixed and matched](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jelly-bands) to decorate the body in time for the summer and musical festival seasons.

Inspired by birds, butterflies and flowers, the latest Flash Tattoos collection -- dubbed Illia -- not only embraces everything striking about rainforests, proceeds also go to the Rainforest Partnership for protecting the trees in the tropical rainforests. A great gift for a friend or even oneself, it continues to give long after the temporary tattoos fade away all together.
