    I normally use an other product but ran out and bought this because I needed something immediately for my new tattoo and OMG. I will never use anything else other than this. No itching and minimal flaking compared to other products.

    Bought the Stories and Ink after care for my first tattoo (a fairly large piece) and I have been nothing but impressed. Most people told me there would be itching, flaking, and peeling. I experienced no itching and the peeling was very minimal for a couple days. Less than 2 weeks and my tattoo looks incredible! Will be using this with every future tattoo!

    I haven't used this cream yet as I bought it in preparation for a tattoo I'm having done soon. If it is as good as all the other Stories & Ink products I've bought then I already know that I'll be impressed by it when I come to use it.

    My friend is a tattoo artist and recommended this to me for my new shoulder tattoo. Only need small bits applied regularly to help keep the new tattoo moisturized. So far my new tattoo is healing nice and quick with no itchiness. Also using the Foam Wash alongside it.

    Healed a few ones with this aftercare cream. Love it! My tattoos heal up faster than with others I've tried. Plus the texture works a dream when have to heal bigger pieces. Very easy to apply.

    I am new to tattoos and had 4 on my left arm making a 1/2 sleeve,This is so nice to use on a fresh tattoo, it goes on nice with no drag unlike another brand I used which was quite thick, it cools as it goes on. It absorbs quickly, and leaves it feeling smooth with no tackiness. My tattoos have healed very good,Myself and the wife both use this, and will always buy this as we add more and more tattoos to ourselves. We also have a lot of other products from the range which we also love, S&I our go to aftercare .

    Although the item arrived damaged I ordered the aftercare duo that also came with this product, it's amazing! Would definitely recommend! As for the damaged item, it was replaced within 2 days of emailing the company (they are only a small team so the time frame is a little longer; but they make you aware of this in the email) can't fault the product or the customer service, already ordered more products for post healing testing!

    I had four tattoos done, all at once. This product was a good and simple solution to help heal my tattoos. I had fine line artwork and it healed quickly but overall I was impressed by the quality and how it made my skin feel afterwards.
