    As in not putting anything on your tattoo when you’ve just got it done? I use bepanthen and it works great.

    Thats what I do as well, because my skin is so sensitive.

    I’ve only got the one..

    Used Bach’s rescue cream (healing and moisturising) 3 times a day, washed with perfume & colour free shower cream (Simple) and had no itching or scabbing just light flaking and was ‘healed’ in just over a week 🙂

    Some old school artist recommend dry healing, i had a guy come to me who’s artist always said just leave it, all his colours were dull, i showed him mine compared to his, i said to him well, im putting bepanthen on this and im wrapping it, its up to you what you do afterwards, but nah he just let it dry heal. Colours dont look as good as they should.

    had mine done on thursday its now sunday and today its really itchy but i also was told to keep it wrapped in clingfilm for the whole day i had it done and for bed then when i woke up to lightly wash it by patting it not rubbing it and then apply bepanthen stuff 3-4 times a day and its looking great, no scabbing yet just a lil itchyness but thats from the tape they used coz im allergic to it so my skin is a bit itchy and puffy.

    i know two people that will wash it with hot soapy water once they get home then do the dry heal process, they have had no problems either.

    its best to go with what your artist advises to be honnest

    I’ve been using unscented Lubriderm and it’s been working great so far

    I have real bad dry skin, I don’t think I would like not using anything to help heal and keep it moist.

    I’ve been using H2Ocean for my last two and I like it pretty good.

    Heck even after my tats are fully healed, I will put unscented lotion on them if I go out anywhere, makes them look a lot better.
