While Kim Kardashian once famously said of tattoos, “You don’t put a bumper sticker on a Bentley,” her sisters haven’t exactly heeded her advice. Kendall Jenner, for one, has three, each of which are tiny and hidden. Yet for her latest editorial, the model isn’t covering anything up.

Appearing on V magazine’s January cover, the reality star flaunts a huge green snake creeping from her midthigh all the way up to the top of her hip. But as it turns out, the tattoo isn’t permanent.

Alongside the 21-year-old, models Carolyn Murphy, Joan Smalls, Lara Stone, Amber Valletta, and Ellen Rosa all got temporarily inked by male model Paul Lemaire as well. Makeup and body artist Jenai Chin was the mastermind behind all of the creative custom tattoos, and she has come up with some really cool limited-edition pinup temporary tattoos that are already available to purchase.

Unlike real tattoos, these temporary works of body art didn’t take too long to make. As Chin explained of her process, first she makes a stencil of what she wants to put on the body and then instead of using needle and ink, applies paint and airbrushing. “Depending on what each girl got, the tattoo could have run anywhere from a half hour to an hour and a half. Kendall’s was very large with a lot of line work,” she said.

While Jenner might not actually get a large snake permanently drawn on her leg, she does “really like” tattoos. “I definitely want more, eventually, I just don’t know what I would get right now,” she wrote on her app. “I don’t have anything in mind. You’ll just have to wait and see!”
