Tattoo Goo Original - Aftercare Salve (21G)

Been using this product for many many years use it regularly will not scab takes away the swelling would highly recommend

Great for tattoos as always

I've used this for my last two tattoos and it does the job perfectly. I tend to apply more often, probably six times a day, but still only wash the tattoo three times a day. Both tattoos healed perfectly and quickly, one was a simple line design, the other more complex with lots of shading. One tin per tattoo, it doesn't last long but I do over apply. It's a waxy sort of feel and smells herbal which I love, the rosemary really stands out. When it gets cold it goes crystaly hard like wax and when warm it goes liquidy so watch how you store it mid summer.

Up to now I've always used bepanthen to care for my tattoos, but under the guidance of a new artist I gave tattoo goo a go. Now to clarify, I did not use this until the third day after I got my tattoo (I used bepanthen up until that point). Be that as it may, I thought this product was very good. Lubricages nicely, doesn't stick to your clothes much, and most importantly my tattoos came through it looking great.Using bepanthen id never had considerable skin flaking and scabbing before, I did have that using this. But this isn't a bad thing as this is normal, and I think my tattoos might even look better for it.I applied this 3 times a day, however most of the time I was wearing vests (the tattoos were done on my arm). If you're going to wear clothes over your tattoo I recommend you use this a minimum of 4 times a day, as it will wear off quicker.The only knock I have on it is, while it's good for the first two weeks of healing, it did seem to heal the tattoos slower than bepanthen. On the last day or two of aftercare I used bepanthen just to kick the can over the line to speak. But I don't think this is a bad thing, because I'd rather use a dedicated tattoo product. I'd highly recommend this product, used in conjunction with a bit of bepanthen.

Great stuff would use anything else on my new tattoos!

Ive got 3 tattoos and a half Steve, I used other cream on the 3, and the "goo" on my sleeve, so while I've only used 3 types( tops ) and there are people that have used 100s of types that may disagree. I would swear by this stuff.To go from colouring, felling like sand paper rubbing a scrape, to the soothing coolness of the "goo" is in my opinion a must have. Not only does it sooth the soreness , it cools the red skin pretty much instantly. It's not numbing cream! But the result is almost as good.Then when your a day or two into healing and scabby, the "goo" turns your itchy tat into a nice smelling gooey tat. The air gets to this and heals perfect.The "goo" dosent rub of like cream which if your clumsy like me is a massive helpPersonally I won't touch anything else but that's me. If your in two minds or haven't given the "goo' a go, do it. Your have a new fav tattoo carezn no doubts.

I love love love this stuff! I used this for my first large tattoo and loved it, but wanted to give the expensive popular one a go... I swifty came back to this as for a tender fresh tat, this is incredibly easy to apply and smooth out, essentially glides like an oil so there is no pulling of the skin. It smells wonderful with a delicate lavendery scent. It's soothing and protective but not smothering. My artist initially recommended just pure coconut oil to me but I found although it was nourishing, it did not moisturise my tat enough and it became scabby super fast.This helped much more with actually adding some moisture to prevent too much scabbing and helped wonderfully at the super annoying itchy phase. I absolutely would not use anything else.One pot was enough for the healing stage of my whole forearm. A little goes a long way.

I get inked a lot & recently had an inner bicep tattoo done.I usually use a 42 hour moisturiser which helps 9/10 times but not with this one! It’s one of those problem healing areas:( It got inflamed & itchy.A nightmare.I bought some Tattoo goo to have in as a back up & thank goodness I did.What a tattoo life saver it was.I 100% recommend You get some of this in.Look after that ink;)
