Depends on how long you leave it on to begin with and how much you wash.

And whether you put lotion on your skin.

2 weeks is generally the longest it lasts and it's pretty faded by that point. Lotion will keep it from taking so much. As will leaving on only until it dries, about 20 minutes or so. And if you don't do anything extra to make it take more it'll also fade faster.
