In the ever-evolving world of cosmetic tattoos, one trend continues to spark curiosity and debate—freckle tattoos. A Brisbane-based tattoo artist, Daisy Lovesick, recently went viral after showcasing a client who traveled a staggering 900 miles just to get her signature freckle tattoos.
While some people spend their lives covering up freckles, others are going to great lengths to get them permanently inked. But what makes freckle tattoos so desirable, and why did this particular case gain so much attention? Let’s dive into the fascinating world of cosmetic freckle tattoos, the process behind them, and the internet’s divided reaction to this unique beauty trend.
The Artist Behind the Viral Freckle Tattoo
Daisy Lovesick, a renowned tattoo artist in Brisbane, has built a reputation for creating hyper-realistic freckle tattoos. She specializes in subtle, natural-looking designs that blend seamlessly with the client’s skin, giving the illusion of naturally sun-kissed freckles.
Daisy’s TikTok account, @daisylovesick, is filled with videos showcasing her meticulous freckle tattooing process. Her recent post about a client named Michaela, who traveled 900 miles just for her service, caught the internet’s attention.
In the viral video, Daisy carefully mapped out the freckle placement before inking, ensuring that each dot complemented Michaela’s facial features. To add a personal touch, she even included a tiny heart-shaped freckle.
How the Freckle Tattooing Process Works
For those unfamiliar with the process, freckle tattooing is a form of semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing. Unlike traditional tattoos, freckle tattoos are created with a softer, more natural effect. Here’s how the process unfolds:

Mapping Out the Freckles
Before inking, Daisy strategically placed the freckles, having Michaela approve the design first. “I always map my freckles with my clients sitting up,” she explained. “I have them check in the mirror to confirm they’re happy.”
Adjusting for Facial Expressions
Freckles shift naturally with facial expressions, so Daisy asked Michaela to smile, make faces, and talk while finalizing the placement. This ensures the freckles move naturally when she emotes.
Tattooing the Freckles
Once Michaela approved the design, Daisy began the inking process. Unlike traditional tattoos, freckle tattoos fade over time and settle into a more natural, blended appearance after healing.
Immediate Aftermath
Immediately after the procedure, Michaela’s face appeared red and swollen—an expected reaction. Daisy reassured viewers, stating, “A lot of times, freckles look like this immediately after they’re done. Clients know this is how they’ll leave the studio.”
Daisy was thrilled with the outcome, saying, “I am absolutely obsessed with how these freckles turned out. I love the ones across the nose the most.”
The Internet’s Mixed Reaction to Freckle Tattoos
As with any beauty trend, not everyone is on board. The video quickly went viral, attracting both praise and criticism.
Supporters Loved the Look
Many users praised the tattoo artist’s work, admiring how the freckles gave a youthful, sun-kissed appearance. The client herself, Michaela, commented, “ITS MEEE hahaha I am so in love with these! Thank you so, so, so much.”
Critics Were Not Impressed
Others were less enthusiastic, questioning the appeal of freckle tattoos. Some users compared the fresh ink to blackheads, rosacea, or even grease burns.
“Looks like she’s been bobbing for apples in a chip pan.” “It doesn’t look like freckles. It looks like she has rosacea.” “I have natural freckles and they look nothing like this lmao. This poor girl needs her money back.”
While some found the look unappealing, others couldn’t understand why someone would choose to get permanent freckles when others naturally have them and try to cover them up.
Freckle Tattoos: A Growing Beauty Trend
Despite the mixed opinions, freckle tattoos have gained popularity in recent years. Many people love the youthful, carefree aesthetic freckles provide. Here’s why they’re trending:
A Natural, Sun-Kissed Look
Freckles are often associated with a fresh, natural beauty that doesn’t require makeup. For those who weren’t born with them, tattooing offers a long-lasting solution.
Customizable Designs
Artists can tailor the freckles to match a client’s desired aesthetic—light and scattered, bold and clustered, or even incorporating tiny shapes like hearts or stars.
Semi-Permanent and Low Maintenance
Unlike traditional tattoos, freckle tattoos fade over time, usually lasting 1-3 years before needing a touch-up. This makes them a less permanent commitment compared to other facial tattoos.

What to Expect from Freckle Tattoos
If you’re considering getting freckle tattoos, here’s what you should keep in mind:
They Will Fade – Initially, freckles appear darker but fade to a more natural look after a few weeks. Healing Takes Time – The redness and swelling seen in Daisy’s video are temporary. The final results take a few weeks to fully develop. Choose a Skilled Artist – Not all tattoo artists specialize in freckles, so do your research before booking an appointment. They Are Semi-Permanent – Over time, the freckles will fade and may require touch-ups to maintain their appearance.
Would You Get Freckle Tattoos?
The beauty world is constantly evolving, and what’s considered trendy today might not be tomorrow. While some people embrace freckle tattoos as a fun, youthful beauty enhancement, others remain skeptical about their appeal.
What do you think? Would you ever consider getting freckle tattoos, or do you prefer to stick with traditional makeup and natural freckles?

Kate Middleton hospitalized – Kensington Palace release new information about the princess
Kensington Palace announced Wednesday that Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales has undergone planned abdominal surgery at a private hospital in London and won’t be returning to her royal duties until after Easter.
Kate is expected to spend between ten and fourteen days at the hospital where she’s currently recovering. The Palace announced the surgery was successful.
The Princess apologized to the public for postponing her public duties.
“Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales was admitted to The London Clinic yesterday for planned abdominal surgery. The surgery was successful and it is expected she will remain in hospital for ten to fourteen days, before returning home to continue her recovery. Based on the current medical advice, she is unlikely to return to public duties until after Easter,” the statement from Kensington Palace on its social media pages.
“The Princess of Wales appreciates the interest this statement will generate. She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible; and her wish that her personal medical information remains private.”
The statement continued: “Kensington Palace will, therefore, only provide updates on Her Royal Highness’ progress when there is significant new information to share. The Princess of Wales wishes to apologise to all those concerned for the fact she has to postpone her upcoming engagements. She looks forward to reinstating as many as possible, as soon as possible.”
Fans of the Princess, who has gained plenty of respect by her people throughout the years, expressed their well-wishes and hopes for her speedy recovery.
“Feel better soon, Catherine. Even while she’s not well, she’s worried about everything going on around her. You take care of you and I’m sure people understand the need to respect your privacy for your children. They would want the same for their own,” one of the comments read.
“Prayers for a successful recovery for the Princess of Wales and for her lovely family as they navigate this difficult time,” another person wrote.
“My thoughts and prayers are with her and her whole family,” a third added.
“14 days is a long stay, hope she’s ok,” someone else stated.
Upon being discharged from the hospital, Kate is expected to continue her recovery at the comfort of her home in Windsor where she and William moved in 2022.
At the same time, William also cut down on his engagements in order to be able to help around the children while his wife recovers from what was said to be a “non-cancerous” surgery.
Of course, William will receive help from the children’s long-time nanny, Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo.
Borrallo has been with the family since Prince George was just 8 months old.
“She is not married and doesn’t have a boyfriend, as her life is totally dedicated to the family she is working with. She is known for being totally professional – married to the job,” an insider told Hello Magazine.
When the couple are away from home, the nanny makes all the decisions regarding the children.
Borallo was trained at the prestigious Norland College in Bath. “Maria is firm, but she never acts unilaterally with the children on discipline. Kate and William, along with Maria, are strict with the children but have this magic ability to appear not to be,” a royal insider said.
Kate has shared her feeling about hospitals and hospital stays in the past and said those are not “places she wanted to hang around in.”
Recalling the times she experienced extreme morning sickness following the birth of Princess George, Kate said, “I think, yeah I did stay in hospital overnight, I remember it was one of the hottest days and night with huge thunderstorms so I didn’t get a huge amount of sleep, but George did which was really great.”
She then added, “I was keen to get home because, for me, being in hospital, I had all the memories of being in hospital because of being sick so it wasn’t a place I wanted to hang around in. So, I was really desperate to get home and get back to normality.”
We wish Kate a fast recovery.
