Jagua gel — natural ink for DIY temporary tattoos
Pure jagua gel, ready to use. Pick your format, draw your design, and let the ink do the rest — a deep blue-black stain that properly looks like a real tattoo and lasts 7 to 15 days.
Which format suits you?
10 ml tube — your first go
The starter. Comes with a fine-tip applicator so you can draw straight from the tube — no extra kit needed. One tube gives you roughly 8 medium tattoos or up to 20 small ones. Brilliant for trying jagua for the first time, or for a single event: a hen do, a birthday, a festival weekend.
Best for: first-timers, one-off occasions, testing before you commit to a bigger size.
Price per ml: from £1.30/ml

100 ml refill pouch — you know you like it
Same gel, 10× the volume. Decant into your own cones or applicator bottles and you're sorted. Portion it into smaller pots on arrival, freeze them individually, and each one stays fresh for up to 2 years. The maths works out at 60% less per ml than buying tubes.
Best for: regular users, henna artists adding jagua to their offering, group sessions and workshops.
Yield: ~80 medium tattoos or 10 full-hand mehndi pieces
Price per ml: £0.50/ml

1 litre pro pouch — built for client work
The professional format. Fill roughly 50 cones in one batch session, freeze individually, pull one out 30 minutes before each appointment. One order covers a full season of markets, festivals, or months of client bookings. EU-certified (EC 1223/2009) — you can show the INCI list to clients with confidence.
Best for: professional body art and henna artists, event companies, workshop organisers.
Yield: ~800 medium tattoos or ~50 cones
Price per ml: £0.30/ml

Never used jagua before?
If this is your first time, start with the 10 ml tube — or, if you'd rather have everything in one box (stencils, gloves, transfer sheets, printed guide), have a look at our complete kits. For a full introduction to what jagua is and how it works, read our beginner's guide.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between the tube and the pouches?
The 10 ml tube comes with a built-in applicator — ready to draw straight away. The pouches (100 ml and 1 L) are refill formats: you decant the gel into your own cones or applicator bottles. Same gel inside, different packaging.
Do I need anything else to get started?
With the 10 ml tube: no — the applicator tip is included. With the pouches: you'll need cones, a squeeze bottle, or an applicator with a fine tip. If you already have one from a kit or a previous tube, it works with that.
Which size should I buy first?
Never tried jagua? Go for the 10 ml tube. Already know you like it? The 100 ml pouch is the sweet spot for value. Working professionally? The 1 litre is the most economical per ml and covers a full season.
