After Inked Tattoo Aftercare Lotion – Moisturizing Balm for Inked Skin, As Seen on INK MASTER – Hydrating Cream with Grape Seed Oil, Skin Nourishment & Daily Maintenance – 3 Fluid oz Tube (1-Pack)

I’ve tried several tattoo aftercare products, but this tattoo aftercare lotion has truly exceeded my expectations. First off, the texture is perfect—not too thick or greasy, but rich enough to provide deep hydration. It absorbs quickly, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth without any sticky residue.What really stands out is how soothing it feels on freshly inked skin. It immediately calms any irritation, reduces redness, and helps prevent that uncomfortable tightness or itching. I also love that it has a light, pleasant scent—nothing overpowering, just a clean, fresh aroma.After using it for a couple of weeks, I’ve noticed my tattoos healing faster and staying vibrant. It doesn’t cause any breakouts or clogged pores, which is important since my skin can be sensitive. The formula is gentle yet effective, and it doesn’t interfere with the ink’s color or quality.Overall, this tattoo aftercare lotion is a must-have for anyone looking to care for their new tattoos. It provides great hydration, promotes healing, and keeps the skin in top condition. Highly recommend!

UPDATE: This stuff is great!!! It enhances older tattoos and with regular use brings back color and details. Excellent absorbency. Moistures, aids in healing and in protecting your ink. I’ve tried many products ya to preserve my ink and this is by far the very best. Contains grapeseed oil which helps liven up colors and is a great moisturizer. Pricey but worth every penny. Extremely and highly recommended for tatttoo after care and maintenance.

Keep this product in the fridge as directed. Apply after showering and a few times during the day and before bed. No itching, no scabbing. This product is super moisturizing and your tattoo will heal quickly and with great color!

I am relatively new to tattoos and until now have been pretty horrible about taking care of them. I used that dreadful greasy stuff on my first two tattoos and because it was so greasy and non absorbing it would get on everything and I found that even though it kept my tattoos nice and hydrated during the healing process, I was loathe to use it. No one told me about the itching stage of tattoos and oh my god did I go nuts with the itching. My first tattoo I wanted to rip my skin off. Between the itchiness and that greasy ointment I was ready to scream.How is it that so many people have tattoos and no one talks about the itching? My friends don't have tattoos and they all think I am nuts for getting them. Of course the question I get most often is "didn't it hurt?" NO, IT DIDN'T HURT! But I want to scream "but it itches like a mother________" That's the real problem.After my fourth tattoo session (I'm just building on the original tattoo) someone recommended this after inked product so I gave it a try. Oh My God, what a difference.... It is not at all greasy, absorbs into the skin and leaves the tattoo hydrated for hours. HOURS! My tattoos look richer and brighter than ever, and my new tattoo healed with hardly an itch and it was the largest tattoo section of all of them. Unbelievable. Truly unbelievable. I never would have imagined the side benefit of limiting the itchy phase to practically non existant.BOTTOM LINE: Maybe it seems a little bit pricey for what you are getting but believe me it is absolutely worth it. Non greasy, a little bit goes a long way, absorbs into the tattoo and keeps it moist, can be used immediately after tattooing and during all phases of the healing process, AND KEEPS THE ITCHY PHASE TO A MINIMUM. I can't say enough good things about it.

It works great. My tattoo didn't scab at all and peeling was pretty quick. Keep it in the fridge and it really feels soothing and helps better with itching. It was worth what I spent for sure.

Since I’m someone who has sensitive skin, I don’t normally use scented lotions. I recently bought this After Inked lotion to try since it had so many great reviews & it claimed to be Non-Irritant & Non-Allergenic. I do like the scent, I like how it doesn’t stick to your clothes, it drys fast, & leaves your skin feeling moisturized for a few hours. For me personally this lotion did a good job AFTER the tattoo already had a little over a week & a half to heal from when the tattoo was originally done. But I don’t recommend using it as the immediate aftercare product if you’re someone who has sensitive skin. Obviously everyone is different with how their skin will react, so if you’re curious about trying this product just be aware it’s possible that your skin may or may not react. If you’re adamant on using it & have sensitive skin, I recommend trying it on a small area of a fresh tattoo just to see before applying it on the entire tattoo. From my personal experience when I tried applying it to my new all around forearm tattoo, the entire tattooed area felt like it was burning & my entire forearm started turning red from the reaction. I ended up washing it off & just used Aquaphor. The downside to Aquaphor is that it has a thick consistency that sticks to clothing and can be annoying to remove when washing your hands, but it does a great job with tattoo aftercare. I did try using this After Inked product on my other new shoulder/upper bicep tattoo that already had a little over a week & a half of healing time done. My skin there didn’t have any negative reactions to the After Inked lotion & I didn’t experience any burning sensations.

Great product! easy to use, keeps skin from peeling and itching. Tatoo healed great!

Favorite tattoo lotion. Works amazing. Keeps tattoo moisturized for hours.
