“My colors look richer without feeling greasy”

I use a very small amount after showering and it makes my older tattoos look moisturized and more vibrant almost immediately. The best part is that my skin feels soft without being shiny, sticky or oily.

“The glide is exactly what I want during a session”

I have tried plenty of products behind the chair, but this one spreads smoothly without needing much. It keeps the skin workable and does not create the heavy buildup I get from petroleum-based products.

“My fresh tattoo felt comfortable and cared for”

I started applying a thin layer as part of my aftercare routine. My skin felt moisturized without the balm sitting heavily on top, and it was easy to use consistently throughout the healing phase.

“My blackwork looks refreshed again”

Some of my older tattoos had started looking dry and dull. After adding this balm to my routine, the skin looks more nourished and the black ink appears deeper and better cared for.

“Finally, a balm I actually use every day”

The texture is smooth, it smells great and a little goes a long way. I keep the jar next to my moisturizer and use it on both newer and older pieces whenever my skin feels dry.

“No mess and no oily residue on my clothes”

I wanted something that would moisturize my tattoos without leaving marks on everything I wore. This absorbs comfortably, leaves my skin feeling soft and makes the colors look much more alive.
