Moisturizing Aloe Lotion for my new tattoo?

Question

I just got my lower back tattoo on Saturday, after using the A & D ointment for the first 24 hours Ive switched to Ocean Potion Brand Moisturizing Aloe Lotion with Vitamins A, C, and E and Tea tree oil. Is this a good selection for my new tattoo?

Answer 1

DO NOT use Neosporin.

A&D ointment is okay, but it

can also bleed the color out a bit,

so yes, I think that is a good selection.

It's very good to use something with Vitamin E in it. =)

Answer 2

I've always used A & D ointment and my tattoo which I got over 6 years ago is just as bright today as it was when I first got it. I don't think you should use anything with tea tree oil in it because it dries out your skin. That is why it works so well for acne. I would stop using it right away.

Answer 3

I've always been told to use neosporin.
