    With summer practically here now, what is the absolute best brand of sunscreen to use to put on tattoos (new or old) to protect them from the sun’s evil rays?

    Hi

    Personally I wouldn’t go for brand name alone as many big brands are crap.

    You need to be checking the following;

    Is it protective against UVA and UBA rays (both knacker ink up)
    Is it a min of factor 45?
    How much alcohol/perfume does it contain (the less the better for new ink)
    Is it water resistant – sweat wears away the cream in no time.

    Avoid those with high zinc content if sensitive skin.

    Take care
    Matthew
