# Singer Collaborative Semi-Permanent Tattoos Post Malone and Inkbox Join for a Tattoo Collection By Amy Duong | Published 2019-11-19 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/post-malone-and-inkbox References: [inkbox](https://inkbox.com/collections/post-malone) Post Malone and Inkbox work in collaboration to debut the semi-permanent tattoo brand's 'For Now Ink' collection. The rapper joins the label by creating a collection that uses the For Now Ink technology. This features complex designs that also feature shaded visuals to make the designs look even more realistic. To apply the non-commitment tattoos, the kit comes with a primer wipe, the tattoo with For Now Ink, covered with a protective seal. It is stuck onto the skin for about an hour and the ink darkens in the following hours on the upper layer of the skin for 1-2 weeks. Some of Post Malone's collaborative designs are true to his design language, with designs such as 'Spade' showcasing the Ace of Spade card covering a Queen of Spades card, a 'Sword,' and tattoos that read "Stay Away" and "Always Tired."
