You might have seen it on the popular Ink Masters TV show. It’s no made for TV product though, it’s the real deal.
According to the manufacturer, AfterInked contains natural ingredients such as grape seed oil, jojoba oil, and vitamin E, which work together to moisturize and soothe the skin while promoting the healing of the tattoo. The lotion is also free of fragrances, parabens, and petroleum-based ingredients, which makes it a suitable choice for people with sensitive skin. It is also free of any animal products and vegan.
Based on customer reviews, AfterInked has received a lot of positive feedback, with many users reporting that it helped their tattoos heal faster and with less scabbing or itching. Some users also appreciated that the lotion did not leave a greasy or sticky residue, and that it absorbed quickly into the skin.
From my personal use, I found it to not be greasy, absorbed quickly, and left my new tattoo feeling calm and hydrated. As it got into the scab/flaky part of the healing process it seemed to keep the itch down and helped speed through that phase. So overall I was very pleased and it’s at the top of my list as a go to for new tattoos.
