I'm inclined to go with the circle of knowing tattoo speculation as well. It's simple, able to be placed on anyone (Since a piece of "armor" or "equipment" would either have to be wearable and not interfere with all armor, nor take up an equipment slot since it will be toggleable)
I could see the reasoning behind it as well. It's been mentioned that a relative of Lousioux will exist in A Realm Reborn. I could see him going "Hey, I can't thank you enough for assisting Louisioux by protecting him while he attempted the summoning." Blah blah, makes you an honorary member of the Circle of Knowing or something. It'd also be nice since people who aren't big on the tattoos and were still teleported would be able to just kind of say "no thanks" and it wouldn't be "forced" on their character so to speak.
I feel a scenario along those lines would be more credible than some tattoos just magically appearing on your character when they exit the rift, at least.
Edit: Come to think about it, the party of adventurer's in the cinematic didn't have anything special on them as far as I can see. So it most likely is something that is given afterwards, and not received from the rift itself.
But who knows? Only time will tell, I suppose.
