Hustle Butter Tattoo Aftercare 5 fl oz Tattoo Balm, For New & Older Tattoos - Safe While Healing - Vegan Tattoo Cream No-Petroleum

I just started using this on my new tattoo and on my oldest! I got the rose inside the triangle about 7 years ago but this cream makes the colors pop again!

Smells great. Easy to apply paste wax (like coconut oil, needs to be warmish). Seems to work really well (day 2 on full forearm sleeve). Only issue is that it takes Forever to absorb!

I love this stuff! I’d use it even without a tatoo

This stuff IS GLORIOUS. Ive been using it on my new tattoo and also my old ones and its giving them life again. It absorbs quick and leaves the skin so smooth PRO- it smells so amazing CON- smells so good it makes me want to taste it

Feels amazing on a new tattoo, soothing it and moisturizing at the same time.

I have used this on two new tattoos now. Pros: soothing during that dry/itchy/flaky healing stage; spreads well *after* you get it warm enough in your fingers; pleasant smell; a little goes a long way, so the jar will last you. Cons: does not absorb into your skin (I use the minimal amount to be spreadable without pressing too hard on a fresh tattoo, which is a tiny amount) and stays sticky; scent is kind of strong, so if you dont like it, it would be annoying; it was a little stingy on a fresh tattoo - might just be my own skins reaction, but personally Id use something else for the first 2 -3 days, then use this until the itchy tightness and flaking is gone, then switch to a regular body lotion that absorbs better. Summary: Overall its not bad, but its too sticky (for me) for daily/long-term use. I will spread it on when Im sitting at my desk at work all day and my arm isnt touching anything, but it just never absorbs and remains tacky, even if I try to use something to wipe away the excess. It is quite solid in the jar, but softens pretty easily from your body heat. I suggest letting it soften in your fingers and covering small sections at a time to try to only use the minimum necessary. Some people have said it makes their old tattoos more vibrant. I tried this on my older tattoos and did not find this to be true - it does make the skin shiny, though.

Product is great. It brings your tattoo to a new level and the aroma is awesome. I use it all the time and my tattoos look INCREDIBLE! When I run out I will order them again!

I would give this a 4.8 if I could, because it was handled with care by the delivery driver, arrived on time, and is a good quality product- but 1 of the 2 containers didnt have a seal when I unscrewed it for the first time. Otherwise, I dont regret this purchase and plan on giving my tattoo artist one of these as a gift.

Literally the best thing I have ever put on a new tattoo. And it smells good. Love this stuff.

I am currently using this awesome aftercare product to heal a FULL arm sleeve. I tried Aquaphor initially like most people recommend but I just hated the super greasy film it left plus the petroleum nature of the product turned me off. So I started looking elsewhere. I ended up using this product and Oras Amazing Tattoo Salve which I also wrote a review for. Lets get down to it...Ive used this product both on a healed portion of my sleeve and fresh ink. In both instances I had zero issues, no irritation/allergic reaction, etc. that a few users have posted about. PROS - The smell is obviously something that everyone consistently talks about and with good reason. The product has a very soft mango smell with a hint of vanilla (at least to me). Its not overbearingly sweet like something you would get at Bath & Bodyworks. Subtle but you definitely smell it on yourself and others who are close enough will as well. The scent is 5 stars in my book. Unless youre not into fruity scents I cant see anyone being turned off by the scent. - The consistency is really depends on the room temperature. Its actually like a shea/coco butter. Solid at cooler temperatures and more soft pliable in warmer temperatures. Regardless the application is super easy. I usually take very small dab of it on my finger and dot my arm with spots of the product from wrist to shoulder. My body temperature warms the product pretty quickly and I than smooth it all over my arm where the consistency turns to basically a lotion type feel. A little bit goes a long way and if you get a full size tub it should last you a VERY LONG time! Even if you are constantly getting inked with big pieces one tub goes such a LONG way. The bang for your buck is definitely there. Even if you continue to use it as a daily moisturizer you should be able to go MONTHS with daily use. - As I stated before I had zero issues with irritation or an allergic effect. There are people with Mango allergies, yes its a real thing. But for me I had no such issues. Having used it both on fresh ink and healed ink it has absolutely kept the itching to a minimum as well as the shedding/peeling. I usually apply a decent layer of the product on and then wipe off the excess with a paper towel. This has helped keep my arm moisturized for HOURS. I could probably keep my arm moisturized the ENTIRE day with two applications at most. CONS - I honestly cant think of none on my part as the healing process has been super easy to date. This product smells great, does what it says it does, the cost per usage is well worth the price, and is easy to apply. Having used Oras Amazing Tattoo salve I have to say they are BOTH 5 star products. I give the edge to this product mainly for two reasons: 1. The smell of Hustle Butter is too damn good. I want to spread it on a bagel and eat that [email protected] maybe make a glaze for a cake...Oras has an herbal citrus smell which I also like and dont mind but Mangoes win this one. 2. Oras comes in small jars. The product does go a very long ways too just like HB. However, with a full sleeve I ran through a small jar pretty quickly healing about 8-9 hours session worth of work over a few weeks. Ive barely dented the HB container...With that said though if you are getting small pieces done a small jar of Oras will last you a LONG time as well. Nothing bad to say about that product as well.
