It is a pigment that reacts to Ultra Violet light. My tattoo shop wil not touch the stuff. If you want to see how your tattoo would look if it reacted to black light take some mineral water and paint it on. I guess some people want a tatto but they don't want it visible until they are in a club / bar. I think it is a shame to hide any good art.

Do blacklight tattoos turn yellow after a period of time?

No, They cannot. Just like any color ink when you get a tattoo it does not fade or change color, once it is there it's with you forever and will stay the say color, not necessarily shape because as you grow older your skin tends to loosen (you get wrinkles) the wrinkles tend to make tattoos look funny. But no they will not turn yellow.(:
