Review on Badger Tattoo Balm: Natural Coconut and Tamanu Oil Tattoo Care for Effective Aftercare, Skin Protection & Conditioning – 2oz Tin by Michael Caldwell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Color pop and other healing!

I got my last tattoo in mid-February. With Aquaphor I overdid it a little in the middle of the night while half asleep and the next morning I fell and now I have clogged my pores. Over the next 24 hours I developed a rash around the lump. Through trial and error it turned out that the clogged pores were making my skin overly sensitive and I could no longer use Aquaphor on it as the rash was getting worse. The only thing that seemed ok was the coconut oil, but it didn't keep the tattoo wet, it dried out after an hour (I think I had coconut oil that was overly refined). through the peeling phase but I had red irritated bumps all over my arm around the bump. I switched to this as soon as I got it in the mail and it's amazing how much more vibrant the color is compared to using lotion or coconut oil! I've even used it on old items and after a minute the color and black look amazing. Best of all, this balm unexpectedly helps with irritated pimples caused by rashes. The irritated bumps dried up and I started using this and they quickly went away. I didn't like the smell of the balm at first, but I've grown so fond of it that I enjoy it. It is difficult to stuff with fingers in cold weather, but do not heat it. Let it settle to room temperature and everything will be perfect.

Pros
  • Beauty & Personal Care
Cons
  • The cord is shorter than other picks
