As it turns out, the 34-year-old actress has a gorgeous floral-patterned tattoo going across the center of her back up toward the top of her right shoulder. Taking to her Instagram page, which has since been deleted, make-up artist Sophie Burton shared pictures of the process to hide Claudia’s permanent inked art, explaining a little more about the magic behind the cover-up, Tyla reported on June 27. Sophie reportedly wrote at the time: “The tattoo cover I used and love the most is @maekupforfilmandtv base 1, then a mix of 00,1 and 2 to get the right tone, then blended the edges and gave depth back to the skin using the hard brush flick technique and Skin Illustrator OG pallette, then applied a custom made prosthetic (made by @charlottevictoriaallen) to give the cover skin texture! Magic! No tattoo!”
