1). Hustle Butter (contains mango *DO NOT USE IF ALLERGIC TO MANGO*) and Puppy Pad method (Latex and chemical attractant free):
Wash the tattoo gently but thoroughly, twice a day with warm water and soap (Dial Gold is great. It's antibacterial and comes in a pump so you won't have to contaminate it with potentially dirty hands). Rinse your new tattoo with cold water and allow it to air dry. You know your body and the difference between DRY (getting tight) and DRIED OUT (cracking)... please don't let it get to cracking.... please. Use a small amount of Hustle Butter (*if you're allergic to mango... Cocoa Butter or Shea Butter is great) and gently but thoroughly massage a thin layer into the tattoo and cover with a fresh puppy pad. Continue this method until the tattoo stops imprinting/transferring the image into the puppy pad (about three to four days). Then continue the washing/rinsing/air drying/moisturizing process for a total of two weeks.

2). Dermshield by Recovery (Latex free second skin):
You keep this on for six days. If it starts peeling up that's fine. Only remove the second skin early if the tattoo is exposed. It's easiest to take the bandage off in the shower (slowly) with warm water peeling down and away. Wash the tattoo gently but thoroughly, twice a day with warm water and soap (Dial Gold is great.
