The La Dot Stones are designed to be used with their line of water proof body makeup and the liners. Use the La Dot liners to add colors to the designs and add extra swirls and twirls around the stamped designs. The applicator has a very fine firm foam tip that is perfect for fine lines. These inks should hold up nicely for 2-3 days when applied to clean skin. You can remove the inks with baby oil or make up remover.
