I do not know what lubriderm lotion is. Googled on it and it looks fine but maybe I would prefer a thicker and so more greasy cream instead. I have many ink and always use Bepanthèn baby cream. It’s a thick cream with some zink oxide in it. It works wonders. A lot of people use it for their tattoos and now that brand even developed a special after care tattoo product.
But I still use my old fashion baby cream :wink:
And after 2 weeks ore so I use a thinner lotion like CeRaVe ore something else for sensitive skin.

Is paraffinum based. That’s not great for tattoos healing, the skin needs to breathe. That said I used to use it as well for my first ones ten years ago …

Coconut oil is all I use. Works fine.

Oooo coconut oil is so smart, can’t believe I forget to think of it beyond cooking purposes so often!

Last day of holiday and dragged my friend in for her first tattoo and got one too :blush:
Just a little star (and still covered in plastic foil).

I’m thinking of getting another tattoo. For my left wrist, probably script work. I’m thinking of ideas at the moment but I want it to be a meaningful mantra, not lengthy, just purposeful.

Anyone have any inspiring quote or motivational tattoos?

I want a very light script, almost fine line, and maybe a symbol or something earthly around it. It’s hard to describe. I’m still thinking :thinking:

I wanted the semicolon for obvious reasons and I added the flower of life to make it a bracelet. And it’s sketch style to match my other Da Vinci inspired tattoos

I have both of my arms covered in ink.
The left one is a one piece sleeve and so there is no skin left untouched. But my right arm ink is build from multiple tattoos ans so I have some little spots open. Going to fill up one of those 8 july with something like this:


Looking forward to it!
