Complete guide: Balm Tattoo Original 100ML
Balm Tattoo Original 100ml is an aftercare ointment for freshly tattooed skin, produced by the Spanish brand Balm Tattoo. The formula is based on Dexpanthenol (Provitamin B5) at a concentration of 5% and the Sepitonic M3 mineral complex (copper, zinc and magnesium, combined with aspartate and gluconate), to which shea butter, mango butter, aloe vera and rice oil are added. It is designed both for clients who have just gotten a tattoo and need a care routine during healing, and for tattoo artists who recommend or sell an aftercare product to clients for the post-session period.
How to use
- Wash your hands with soap and water before touching the tattooed area, to avoid introducing bacteria onto the freshly worked skin.
- Gently clean the tattoo according to your artist's instructions and let the skin air dry completely, without rubbing with a towel.
- Take a small amount of Balm Tattoo Original on your fingertips — a thin layer is enough.
- Apply with gentle massage in circular motions until fully absorbed into the skin.
- Repeat application 2-3 times daily, as recommended by the manufacturer.
- Continue the routine for the entire healing period — usually 2-4 weeks or until the tattoo is fully healed.
- Close the tube cap tightly after each use to avoid contamination and oxidation of the cream.
Tips from us
- Apply a thin layer, not thick — excess cream clogs pores and hinders skin breathing, it does not speed up healing.
- Keep the tube tightly closed, away from heat and direct sunlight, to preserve the formula's quality.
- Do not share the tube with anyone else during your tattoo's healing period, to avoid cross-contamination.
- The 100ml format is designed as a professional reserve — suitable if you have a large tattoo or multiple healing sessions planned.
- If you have sensitive or allergy-prone skin, test the product on a small area before applying it to the entire tattoo.
Warning: Balm Tattoo Original is a cosmetic care product, not a medication — do not apply it to open skin, active bleeding, or signs of infection (intense redness, pus, localized heat, fever); in such cases, seek advice from your artist or a doctor. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes, and if it does occur, rinse thoroughly with water. If you have a history of allergies or very sensitive skin, test the product on a small area before first application on the tattoo. Keep out of reach of children and stop use if persistent irritation or itching occurs.
