Temptu, the brand of choice for the world's top makeup professionals and their most discerning clients, has been producing innovative cosmetics for over twenty-five years. Temptu began as the project of Dr. Samuel Zuckerman, an award-winning chemist and authority on color cosmetics whose successes included developing the Origins line for Estee Lauder and putting the stripe in Aquafresh toothpaste. For the 1981 cult classic film Tattoo, Dr. Zuckerman developed the original Temptu paint formula and tattoo ink transfer, which became an overnight success with Hollywood makeup professionals.
In the process of creating a superior tattoo transfer ink, Dr. Zuckerman and his son discovered that the same formulas could be used to manufacture an exceptional line of long-lasting, skin-safe body paints and cosmetics, giving birth to the Temptu brand.
