Covering an area that is trying to heal means you're allowing germs to build up under the barrier of the cream, also as it's a "wet" cream it softens the scab causing it to come off too soon (sometimes bringing ink with it) and then it rescabs as it's not healed and thus doubles the healing time.

Ah tattoo creams, it's all just snake oil when it comes down to it. This is probably the widest used tattoo after care I have seen sold, it's claimed to keep colour in your tattoo and aid the healing process. In my experience all it does is lengthen the healing process and can sometimes cause huge chunks of ink to come out of your new tattoo. To heal a tattoo correctly what you want is some light scabbing, this means that it will heal progressively and in it's own time, keeping ink in and meaning you don't need to go back and sit through it all again.

This product was recommended to my by the tattoo artist who did my first tattoo.

As anyone who has a tattoo knows, the aftercare is critical in order to preserve the tattoo and ensure that it heals as well as it can. I was first tattooed over 10 years ago and was advised by my tattooist to use savlon or a similar antiseptic cream on my tattoo until the scab had completely gone and the skin was healed. I did this, and did so on my subsequent tattoos aswell and can't say that I had any problems. However when I got my last tattoo (with a different tattooist) she recommended that I use Tattoo Aftercare Balm instead. I took her advice and the difference was astounding. I asked dooyoo to add it so I could review it as I don't think its a well known product ...  Read the complete review
