I love this style of adding text onto skin, I'm not sure what it's called though.

Today I will be showing how to do this.

1. Type out your title, etc, in Phonto and save it as a png. It must be either black or white. You can experiment with greys or colour, but colour looks kinda weird in my opinion.

I downloaded a png boarder and placed my text in there before downloading it as a png. I'm not sure how to do it any other way.

2. Open up your image in PicsArt. Use add photo to add your png text. Remember to erase the boarders.

3. Blend it using either soft light or overlay. The same blending options work with both black or white text, play around to see what you like more.

This can also be done in ibisPaint x and you may get better results because there are more blending options and you will have more control.

Open up your image in one layer and then add the png text in an another and choose a blending option for the text layer. You can of course instead use IbisPaints built in option to add text.
