暫時性彩繪刺青 (Temporary Tattoo) 在東南亞地區非常流行。常被用來當作原料的植物性原料為 Henna 指甲花， 然而市面上的產品往往混雜許多其他成分，如化學性para-phenylenediamine (PPD), 檸檬汁和甜菜根汁液。其中PPD 很容易導致接觸性皮膚炎， 造成嚴重的水皰和燙傷般的傷口。PPD 廣泛存在於染髮劑，有研究發現曾經對PPD 產生過敏的人， 往後在接受染髮時， 產生嚴重過敏反應的機會大大提升。 提醒各位家長在旅遊時要多加留意～
Temporary Henna Tattoo are popular alternative to permanent tattoo especially in the Southeast-Asia. However, the majority of Henna tattoos are not based on henna at all, but a substance called para-phenylenediamine (PPD), which is found in hair dyes. Severe contact dermatitis to PPD has been frequently reported, causing painful burn and blistering and even lead to scarring severe enough to require hospitalization. It also leave the person lifelong sensitivity to PPD, increases the risk of severe allergic reactions when they dye their hair in the future. With this increasing problem, we should raise awareness of the risks of body art.
