If you are looking for a fast-acting soothing product that can be used directly after you get a new tattoo, then Mad Rabbit’s Soothing Gel is what you need. This product is made from soothing ingredients like plant collagen, aloe vera, argan oil, and sweet almond oil, to name just a few! Many of these botanical powerhouses boast natural anti-inflammatory properties that aim to reduce redness and support your irritated skin’s healing process. This soothing gel is unlike other products on the market because it doesn’t clog the skin’s pores like many healing ointments and skin creams, and instead allows your freshly inked tattoo to breathe easily so it can heal right. A barrier to bacteria that doesn’t suffocate new ink? Yes please.

With any part of your body, moisturizing daily with lotion is essential. Your skin needs to stay hydrated to avoid dry skin, which can mean irritation and itchiness, but when you get a tattoo, this is even truer! Your skin has technically undergone trauma that it needs to recover from, and the best tattoo moisturizer should be able to help support that. Mad Rabbit’s Daily Lotion is fragrance-free and can be used on tattooed skin or on tattooless skin — its moisturizing and anti-aging properties lock in hydration and leave even sensitive skin feeling silky to the touch. This daily tattoo aftercare lotion can replace the Mad Rabbit Tattoo Gel, once the tattooed area has healed. You can use this aftercare cream as many times a day as you want without the risk of irritation.

Last, but not least, is Mad Rabbit’s SPF 30 Sunscreen. This mineral-based sunscreen is made specifically to protect tattooed skin, and it works on all skin types so don’t be surprised if Mom asks to borrow it on beach day. UV radiation has been known to fade tattoos at a faster rate so it’s important to keep your tattoos protected with sunscreen. Mad Rabbit’s sunscreen provides your skin with antioxidants derived from ingredients like sustainably sourced chamomile and cucumber, combined with skin-nourishing fatty acids from cocoa butter and sunflower oil. Our blend helps to protect your tattoo from future fading, and keeps your skin moisturized even when exposed to the heat and the sun.

Why Does Aftercare Matter For My New Tat?

When you receive a new tattoo, your body suffers trauma that can cause redness, bleeding, scabbing, and discomfort. Like with any other wound, you want to be prepared to keep it clean and hydrated, so that it can heal properly. The last thing you want to do is cause an infection in a new tattoo that will ruin all the hard work your artist put into it. Not all products have your best interest in mind, so it’s important to do your research to find all-natural ingredients that aim to heal your tattoo. But, you don’t even have to bother, because we’ve done all the research needed to provide you with products that won’t disappoint.
