TEEN Mom Jenelle Evans was criticized by fans for her huge mermaid tattoos on her arms calling them “awful.”
The reality star has debuted an interesting collection of body ink over the years.
Fans questioned her latest pieces after she shared a video of her makeup removing routine while donning heavy eye makeup.
The look was apparently inspired from a TikTok filter, which she demonstrated in a previous clip featuring an undereye wing with glitter underneath.
She recorded herself struggling to strip her skin of the design before finally managing to get it all off.
Jenelle then continued to document her nighttime routine by covering her bare face with a moisturizing sleeping mask and lathering her hands with lotion.
Viewers were more focused on the colorful ink displayed on her arms rather than her beauty regimen.
At the end of the video, the 30-year-old had her forearms facing towards the camera showcasing a giant mermaid tattoo on one of them.
One Reddit user pointed out the fresh ink in the comments writing: “When did she get the mermaid tattoo? It looks like a temporary tattoo my 6 year old daughter would want to wear lol”
Another person questioned the new tat asking: “Does she have new tattoos on both forearms?”
A third fan also zeroed in on the artwork adding: “Those tattoos 
”
While a fourth chimed in: “Are they new? They look like the rest of her awful tattoos.”
Another commenter jumped in to clear the air, stating that the tattoos were indeed fake.
“Y’all. Everyone chill. Those are press on tattoos 
,” they wrote.
FAKE INK
While Jenelle does have quite the collection of body ink, she has enjoyed experimenting with fake tattoos from time to time.
Back in June 2020, the MTV alum let her two youngest children get in on the fun, branding their bodies with an array of fake tats.
After taking a dip in the family pool, Jenelle snapped pics of her son Kaiser, seven, and Ensley, five, with their arms, legs, backs and chests covered with fake tattoos.
Ensley sported colorful pink and purple mermaid tattoos while Kaiser rocked red and black dragon ones.
She shared the series of pics on Instagram with the caption: “We had a lot of fun today with @tonyraytattoos!”
Both Jenelle and her husband David Eason, 33, have shared their love for tattoos as he has his own collection of ink on his hands and arms.
Jenelle has a leopard on her thigh and a key on her forearm along with a bunch of other interesting designs.
TATTOO MISHAP
Last year, the young mom opened up about one trip to the tattoo parlor that she was supposed to take with her Teen Mom 2 co-stars, Leah Messer, Chelsea Houska, and Kailyn Lowry.
The girls had planned to get matching ink together while they were filming the show’s reunion special in Los Angeles.
However, Jenelle revealed on TikTok that there was a mishap in communication and the group mistakenly left her behind.
She said: “So we all decide to get this tattoo together and in one way or another, coincidently, I wasn’t invited with them.
“Later on I asked them and they told me the name of the place and that the guy would remember. And so I went there and the guy did remember and he did my tattoo but I did it after them.
“And looking back on it, I feel really dumb that I was feeling obligated to go get something done just because I felt left out.”
BIG REGRETS
The TV personality has also had some regrets when it came to her design selections as she admitted that a couple’s tattoo that she got with her ex Nathan Griffith was not the wisest choice.
The former couple proved their love for one another by getting a version of an ambigram reading “Jenelle” one way and “Nathan” upside down.
Back in March 2016, Jenelle explained her decision to Hollywood Gossip saying: “At the time, I figured I’ve been with this man and did, in fact, fall in love with him and honestly believed I would be with him the rest of my life.”
She continued: “I acted quickly, and we both came up with the idea to get an ambigram of each other’s names on our hips for being ‘attached at the hip.'”
Jenelle ending up covering up the ambigram with an octopus, as she detailed the removal process.
“I chose this tattoo because like an octopus uses its ink for a defense mechanism.”
The Teen Mom star concluded: “I’m using this idea to cover up my old tattoo with the ‘ink’ of the octopus over it as a defense for me to get rid of something that I don’t want to see anymore.”
Jenelle shares her son Kaiser with Nathan, and daughter Ensley with her husband David.
She is also mom to 12-year-old son Jace with her ex Andrew Lewis.
