Yes, you can use Vaseline on a tattoo, but it's generally not recommended for long-term care. While it can help to protect a new tattoo from moisture and irritants, it may also trap heat and moisture, which can lead to infection or slower healing. It's best to follow your tattoo artist's aftercare instructions, which typically recommend using a specialized tattoo ointment or a fragrance-free lotion instead.

What if you put vaseline on a tattoo what should you do?

Get it off quickly and don't do it again, use moisturisers instead because vaseline can blur and blotch your tattoo if it is applied early after you got your tattoo


Can you put Vaseline intensive care LOTION on tattoo?

No no no! A&D ointment and Lubriderm lotion. From a tattoo junkie, and someone who used to work in a parlor, thats what I recommend to all of my friends. Both products are non-irritating and help keep the skin smooth IMHO I don't itch as much when I use that combination. WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T USE VASELINE, that will cause the ink to draw out of the skin and the tattoo will fade quickly

How long does it take a tattoo to heal?

Small, relatively simple tattoos, heal pretty fast... 4, 5 days. Larger pieces take a bit more time. Up to two weeks. The skin is damaged by the tattoo needle going in and out and the skin reacts in just about the same way as it reacts so a sunburn. That is what a fresh tattoo feels like. So the first days can be pretty painful. After a few days you're okay... and than the worst part comes: it'll start to itch... and you shouldn't scratch! Opionions differ about the aftercare. I advise to wash the tattoo gently after an hour or two, no soap, and put a little bit of vaseline on it. Do that for at least 3, 4 days. Washing without soap, and put some vaseling onto it. That doesn't do anything for the skin, except for keeping it from getting infected. Don't have to put any vaseline on it after the first week. After two weeks the tattoo should be fully healed.
