Rave Freckles!
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
I got these for a Rave. They were very cute once I figured out the best way to put them on. I had to go through 2 before I figured it out. They stayed on well (as well as any temp tattoo can). If you have trouble getting them off, just get some facial oil cleanser! They were cute and I got lots of compliments.

Easy application
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
Lasts all day. Is a bit sticky to the touch once applied (which actually helps keep my glasses from slipping). Fairly easy to remove with some oil and a cloth, didn't try removal wipes that come with them.
