Stories & Ink | TATTOO AFTERCARE CREAM - Natural Healing for Fresh Tattoos, Reduce Itching & Inflammation, Soothes & Repairs Fresh Ink

Great stuff, not as greasy as some others .Stops irritation and feels like it is doing some real good. Photo is one week after this 2hr tat.

Highly recommended, one of the best products I've ever used for a fresh tattoo. Doesn't feel irritating or ishing. After applying you don't even feel it as if you just had a new tattoo and it kept your tattoo looking fresh. Would highly recommended to anyone and the artis should recommended this product to their clients as well.

I’ve tried many aftercare creams and recommendations but this is now a firm favourite. This is the only aftercare cream and foam tattoo wash I buy now and have had comments on how well my tattoos heal and have definitely noticed they heal quicker!? I miss the whole itchy stage now too, it seems to just be so calming for your skin, as someone with very sensitive skin it’s a win-win. Good value for money it lasts ages too.

The actual products are great, especially the cleanser. Foams up nicely and you get a lot out of it and it feels soft and smells neutral. The lotion has a bit of a smell to it but not too much, the tube is really the issue. I guess it's designed badly maybe? Because I've had a few now and they've all had the same problem, the tube keeps pushing the contents out when you're not even touching it! So when you're rubbing a bit in, the rest of the lotion is coming out the tube and you can't get it back in, so a lot gets wasted this way and for the price of it, I don't want any wasted!! Bit frustrating really.

Having used Sorry Mom’s tattoo balm for several years, I decided to try Stories & Ink’s Aftercare Cream and was pleasantly surprised by how well it performed. It’s noticeably lighter and less greasy than many other tattoo balms, yet still provides excellent hydration and protection for freshly inked skin. Application is simple and consistent. The cream spreads easily, absorbs much quicker than other brands, and leaves only a light finish - enough to protect the tattoo without that thick, oily feel some products leave behind. It’s particularly effective on larger tattoos, as it covers well and washes off the hands easily afterwards, without the need for heavy scrubbing. In terms of healing, it performs superbly. It helped to keep the skin calm, reduced itching, and supported an even, smooth healing process without clogging pores or leaving residue on clothing. The light, natural formulation feels gentle and clean, making it suitable for daily use over extended healing periods. The packaging is stylish and practical. The matte tube looks great on a shelf, and it’s compact enough for travel or storage in a bathroom cabinet. The only small drawback is the screw-top design, which can occasionally misthread if you’re in a hurry. A snap-lid closure would make it even easier to use, particularly when applying the cream multiple times a day. Overall, this is a high-quality, well-priced aftercare product that feels carefully formulated for both comfort and effectiveness. It’s become my go-to choice for new tattoos, and a product I’d happily continue to use long term.

This is a great item and has done all it says. Thank you

All tattoo artists need to recommend this to their clients for a brand new fresh tattoo for the first week, seriously its amazing! When i got my sleeve i used Palmers coco butter and it was not good at all, way too thick. This time i used Stories and Ink and from day 1 my tattoo felt calm, less irritated, less sesitive, and healed quicker and better. Perfect consistency, quick and easy to apply, you really cant go wrong. Highly recommended for a new tattoo.

A fantastic product would highly recommend
