The world's most Craziest tattooed woman flaunts her body art

What began as a bid to cover up a nasty skin condition has resulted into a Guiness World Record for an American who has been named the most tattooed woman in the world.

Julia Gnuse - nicknamed the 'illustrated lady' - has 95 per cent of her body covered in ink, ranging from jungle scenes and cartoons to her favourite actors.

Miss Gnuse, from California, started getting tattoos on her legs after developing a skin condition called porphyria, which causes the skin to blister when exposed to sunlight.




She then turned her attention to her stomach, arms and back and before long was addicted to body art.

In an interview, Miss Gnuse said although the ink did not stop her skin from blistering, it covered up the scars and allowed her to be exposed to the sun.

'I did this for the reason of covering scarring from the blisters. They get as deep as three degree burn,' she said.

'I had a friend who is a plastic surgeon, who suggested tattooing my skin the same color to the scarring that I had, seeing if we can match my just pale-looking skin that I had.'

'That didn't work. We tried it. It was very difficult to match that. So I had the idea of a colorful tattoo, then I got hooked. I got addicted.'

Miss Gnuse said there was medication available for her condition, but said taking it could have placed her at risk of blindness.

Miss Gnuse, who unveiled her tattoos at a BookExpo in New York yesterday, said every one of her designs had been created by the same tattoo artist.

The black dye is extracted from an exotic fruit which is then processed and refined into Jagua Gel. They use this natural black dye to decorate their bodies and faces for ceremonial rites. The Jagua fruit (Genipa Americana) has been used by native tribes in South America for many centuries.

Jagua is a 100% safe black Temporary Tattoo Gel. But now a new product has come on the market that will hopefully eradicate these irresponsible people using PPD products and the heart ache they bring. It is forbidden to use on the skin by the European cosmetics regulations and the FDA in America, as it is classified as an extremely toxic substance which can cause blistering, scaring and much worse. Even though severe warnings have been issued through the media it has not stopped the demand, or the use of "black henna". The so called "black henna" that many unscrupulous artists use, in many countries is a chemical product known as PPD (Para-phenylenediamine) which gives a black result.

Traditional henna paste smells like spinach, or you may smell fragrances like Pine, Tea Tree Oil, or Mentholatum from essential oils they're using. PPD doesn't have a smell.

Women don't have much of an idea of what they want - or don't want. They end up doing far more research than they need to, and may end up with something they're not delighted with because they've been overly influenced by partners, friends or even the tattoo artist. I've seen first-hand how easily this type of thing can happen.
