Your on the hunt for tattoo ointment after asking yourself the question over and over, “what ointment is good for tattoos?”. It’s important to pick something that merges comfort, quality, and price into one. This way you don’t spend a fortune on a small tube of some ointment or give yourself a rash buying some bunk product from some sketchy dealer.
Essentially what you’re looking for when searching for tattoo ointment is something that will heal your tattoo while maintaining the color and getting it at an affordable price with ease.
The products listed below are what I use, have tested, and will continue to use for tattoo ointment on my tattoos both when I get them, as I’m going through the tattoo healing process and in all phases of tattoo aftercare.
1. A&D Ointment
This is the classic tattoo referral ointment from most people. I believe that once something has been tried and proven it’s difficult for people to switch from their bread and butter. The great thing about A&D ointment is that you can buy a lot of product at great price and if you’re getting quite a few tattoos you will have a long term supply with your initial purchase.
This works like many other ointments that you’ll be looking at as forming a protective barrier to help seal out bacteria, wetness, and anything else that may come into contact with your tattoo.
2. Hustle Butter
This is a higher end more designer brand tattoo ointment. Since I’m interested in everything out there on the market it’s something I picked up and tried out and honestly it was pretty impressive. It’s a tattoo ointment that works well in all phases of the tattoo process and can be applied during the tattoo process as well to keep the skin workable.
One of the things I really liked about this brand and company is their products are cruelty free and they advertise that they are 100% vegan. Now I’m not about to go on a rant of crossfit and veganism but it’s cool to see companies taking those steps to look out.
It is made from Shea, Mango, and Aloe butters, Coconut, Sunflower and Rice Bran oils, Rosemary Oleoresin, Green Tea, Vitamin E Complex and Mint Arvenis Essential Oil, as well as the essence of Papaya and Coconut.
3. Ora’s Tattoo Salve
*Organic Option*
There are those people out there that inspect labels and are meticulous about ingredients and organic products. This salve is for those as they have really hit on the need of providing a natural solution. This is a herbal blend that is slowly infused to make a superior herbal healing salve.
When you get it just apply a thin layer onto your new tattoo to assist it in the healing process, reduce itching, and prevent clogging pores or lost color.
What’s in the product? Grapeseed Oil Infused With Organic Calendula, Organic Comfrey, Organic Plantain, Organic Chickweed, Organic St. John’s Wort, Organic Burdock And Organic Thyme, Organic Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Vitamin E And Essential Oils Of Rosemary, Thuja, And Tea Tree. To avoid contamination, please wash hands thoroughly before each use, do not share salve, and keep lid closed tightly when not in use.
