Shopping list..
PALMERS COCOA BUTTER
TO MOISTURISE YOUR TATTOO, I RECOMMEND FRAGRANCE-FREE 'PALMERS' COCOA BUTTER.
INVEST IN THE PUMP-ACTION OR SQUEEZE BOTTLE, TO AVOID CROSS-CONTAMINATION.
DO NOT USE OLD MOISTURISERS OR SHARE BOTTLES WITH OTHERS.
BIO OIL
INVEST IN A BOTTLE OF 'BIO OIL' FOR THE FINAL STAGES OF HEALING.
BIO OIL BOOSTS HEALING PROPERTIES IN THE SKIN AND REDUCES SHINY AREAS.
GREAT PURCHASE, AS YOU CAN USE THIS AGAIN FOR FUTURE TATTOOS.
IBUPROFEN/ANTI-INFLAMMATORY
YOU CAN USE IBUPROFEN OR AN ANTI-INFLAMMATORY TO REDUCE SWELLING.
PLEASE BE SURE TO READ THE LABEL AND USE AS DIRECTED, USUALLY EVERY 3-4 HOURS.
CLING FILM
PURCHASE A BASIC CLING FILM/CLING WRAP TO COVER YOUR TATTOO WHEN NEEDED.
I USUALLY RECOMMEND COVERING YOUR TATTOO FOR THE FOLLOWING FEW NIGHTS.
YOU CAN ALSO WRAP YOUR TATTOO AT WORK OR DURING ACTIVITIES, IF NEEDED.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED, TO CARE FOR YOUR NEW TATTO
ANTI-BACTERIAL SOAP
PURCHASE AN ANTI-BACTERIAL OR SIMPLE SOAP TO GENTLY CLEAN YOUR TATTOO.
BE SURE THAT THE SOAP IS FREE OF PERFUME, ALCOHOL OR ANY HARSH CHEMICALS.
I RECOMMEND THE BRANDS DOVE, SIMPLE AND DETTOL.
