It seems temporary tattoos are all the rage after a young man shared a viral video of himself applying one on a young woman.

In a recent viral video, the student shared a video of himself and a female customer sitting outside as he showcased the design on her arm – from her shoulder to her wrist.

Kabelo also added small tubs of yoghurt for the evening. Many people in the video's comment section felt they related to Kabelo because they, too, did not enjoy consuming alcoholic beverages.
