Review on 🎭 6-Piece Set of Temporary Tattoo Sleeves for Arms - AKStore - Tiger, Crown Heart, Skull, Tribal Designs, and More - With Sunscreen Protection by Guled Hamilton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very good for the price but quality control. Fit could be improved

As I was planning to wear them as "sun sleeves" while driving I ordered two sets of 6 of these sleeves - and was delighted to confirm that the Patterns shown in each of the sets were the same. What wasn't the same, as I found out when I "vaped" the sets, was the size. Specifically, 4 of the 6 pairs were unequal in length, with the sleeves in one 6-pack being 1/2–1 inch shorter than their "matches" in the other 6-pack. The sleeves that matched from both sets (2 black and white prints) were comparable in length to the longer sleeves. For my purpose I decided to just keep what I got rather than try to re-order and hope for a new set with a length matching what I had (and preferably longer than, what I had). But in my experience, the discrepancy between previous reviews regarding the adequacy of the fit of these sleeves makes more sense: customers can certainly get different sized sleeves. There is no indication on the individual sleeve packs that the sleeves have been assigned any size, so I'm not sure how the supplier can track/control this issue, but it can only be a deviation from current stock. One positive thing I want to point out (and kept in mind when ordering) is that these stocking-like sleeves have "hooks" on the inside of both ends to keep them in place. (Although I went through the Q&A and some reviews of this information before ordering, I didn't find anything that addressed the question "how do they stay in place" so I thought I'd mention - though I understand that this information is unfortunately not visible in the review). In summary, I am overall very happy with this purchase - a very good price compared to some other offerings. Of course almost always something could be better as mentioned above - and one last thing I forgot to mention earlier is more of a caveat about the patterns in the set: 2 out of 6 patterns are definitely "male" half-naked tattoos. (and actually "undressed" in one case) women in it.

Pros
  • Finishing
Cons
  • Not as good as advertised
