How to apply a 3-layer glitter tattoo stencil, including peeling the backing paper, keeping the stencil attached to the clear transfer sheet, applying it to skin, and removing the clear top sheet.

How to Remove the Clear Top Sheet

Your stencil has 3 layers:

  1. Clear Transfer Sheet — TOP

  2. Stencil — MIDDLE

  3. Backing Paper — BOTTOM

Step 1 — Apply to Clean, Dry Skin

Use an alcohol pad to remove any oils or dirt from the area. Place the stencil sticky-side down onto the skin. Press firmly over the entire design, especially around small details and edges.


Step 2 — Remove the Clear Sheet

Starting at one corner, slowly peel the clear sheet back over itself, keeping it close and parallel to the skin rather than pulling straight upward.

Important: The stencil should remain on the skin while only the clear sheet comes away.


Step 4 — If the Stencil Starts to Lift

Stop peeling. Lay the clear sheet back down and press/rub the stencil firmly onto the skin, then continue removing the clear sheet slowly.

Step 5 — Ready for Glitter!

Once the clear transfer sheet has been completely removed, your stencil is ready for cosmetic adhesive and glitter.

PRO TIP:Peel low + peel slow. Pulling the clear sheet straight up can lift small pieces of the stencil.
