Heading to the Playa this weekend with the rest of San Francisco? Have fun! And when you return to civilization after Labor Day, you can bring a bit of your Burning Man look back with you. According to Vogue, metallic temporary tattoos are so much more than festival wear: They are a form of body art that warrants mastery. (The mag recommends styles by Flash Tattoos and Lulu DK Jewelry Tattoos.) So don't cover up your sweet temp tat until your first decompression party. If your body art can survive the dust of Black Rock City, let it take a victory lap back home.
