After removing Cling Wrap / Second skin:

1. Wash away the plasma and excessive ink with water or Hypoallergenic soap. Make sure the tattoo surface is clean, pat dry with tissue paper or paper towel (do not use towel!)
 

2. Clean your tattoo 3-4 times a day or whenever you spotted plasma/ink or sweat
 

3. You can shower. It is fine that the soap water runs through your tattoo during shower
 

4. Apply a very thin layer of skin lotion/cream after the 4th day (when it started dry and scabbing). Recommended products: unscented, for sensitive skin, natural

Note:  Your new tattoo looks ugly at this stage
 

5. Scabs usually peel off in 1-2 week’s time (new tattoo appears to be slightly lighter compared to the freshly inked tattoo). 6 weeks to 2 months for actual heal up.
 

REMOVE FILM IF:

1. Skin sensitive reaction: Rashes / Itchy / Burning
2. Film comes off and expose the tattoos (either partly or entirely)
3. Water goes into the film during shower / washing

​

DON'Ts

1. Touch your tattoo unless you have just washed your hands! Wear dark color clothing to avoid stains.

2. Apply normal soap directly onto your tattoo (except Hypoallergenic soaps)

3. Wear tight clothing

4. Scratch / rub / pick any scabs at all *Very important!*

5. Take food allergens such as seafood, spicy food, nuts and alcohol

6. Swimming, soak into water for too long, water activities

7. Do gym or activities that lead to excessive sweating and stretching

8. Get sunburnt
 

Note: It’s normal to find some glues leftover on the skin/tattoo, you may ignore the glue as it will go off by itself.
