The Helm Of Awe (Viking's Symbol) Temporary Tattoo


Stanza 16 of Fafnismal in the Poetic Edda mentions:

"The Helm of Awe
I wore before the sons of men
In defense of my treasure;
Amongst all, I alone was strong,
I thought to myself,
For I found no power a match for my own."

According to Norse lore, The Helm of Awe or The Helm of Terror (Old Norse: Ægishjálmr) is probably one of the most recognized Icelandic symbols and anyone who wears it in a battle will be protected from harm.
The helm of awe is a rune spell carved or painted onto objects for them to take effect.
These could be bones, pieces of bark, pillars, dirt, or even parts of the body, which brings us to present day where you can apply this top-quality Helm of Awe temporary tattoo on your skin and for a few days partake in a magic ritual of your own. 
Its dimensions make it easy to place it on different places on your skin and whether you go for a shoulder, arm, chest or back, you certainly won't go wrong.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

CAN ANYONE BUY THESE TATTOOS?

Absolutely anyone!

HOW EASY ARE THEY TO APPLY?

It’s incredibly easy. Just cut out your design from the sheet we provide, place it face down against your skin and apply it using a damp cloth. For more detailed instructions, click here.

HOW LONG DO YOUR TATTOOS LAST?

That depends on the type of skin you have, but our designs usually last between two and seven days. How much you sweat will make a difference, and so will the location of the tattoo. If it goes somewhere there’s rubbing or friction, that will reduce the number of days it will stay in place.

WHO CAME UP WITH THE DESIGNS?

The majority of the tattoos are designed by the Tattooed Now team. The exceptions are:

Peaky Blinders The original designs were the work of Loz Schiavo, the hair and make-up designer for Peaky Blinders. We produced extra images in the style of the series.

Vikings Viking tattoos were designed by Vikings Tv Series Make-Up designer Tom McInerney.

Skulltress This collection was designed by Vanessa Davis.

ARE YOUR TATTOOS SAFE?

Completely! However, we do advise that you shouldn’t try to apply them on broken or sensitive skin, or anywhere close to your mouth or eyes. Also, if there’s any redness on your skin or you feel it tingling too much, you should remove it.

WHERE ON THE BODY SHOULD I PUT MY TATTOOS?

Anywhere you like.

Peaky Blinders Tattoos

Tommy Shelby wears a sunray tattoo on his chest, for instance, but you could have it on your shoulder, bicep or back – anywhere you choose.

DO YOU SHIP TATTOOS TO THE COUNTRY WHERE I LIVE?

Our distribution is worldwide, so yes.

CAN I EXERCISE AND TAKE SHOWERS?

You can definitely take showers, because our tattoos are water-proof. As for exercise, it depends what you get up to. But if you raise your body temperature or sweat a great deal, they may wear off faster.
