Complete guide: Biotat Envy Numbing Tattoo Glide 100g
"Biotat Envy Numbing Tattoo Glide" is a working gel with a natural numbing effect, designed for tattoo artists: it is applied to the skin exactly like a petroleum jelly or a "butter," providing glide for the needle and, at the same time, reducing client discomfort. It contains no lidocaine, but relies on clove oil, vegan honey, and lavender, without artificial dyes or fragrances. The 100g container is designed for professional studio use over multiple sessions.
How to use
- Before first use on a new client, perform a brief skin sensitivity test, especially if the person has known allergies to cloves/eugenol.
- Prepare and clean the area to be tattooed according to the studio's usual protocol.
- Apply a thin layer of product to the working area, just like a petroleum jelly, before starting the outline.
- Reapply during the session as a working 'glide' to maintain needle glide on the skin.
- Wipe off excess carefully when checking the design — the manufacturer states it does not remove the transferred stencil from the skin.
- After the tattoo is finished, the product can also be used as aftercare: apply a thin layer 2-3 times a day on the freshly tattooed area, as per the description.
- Close the container tightly after each use and store it out of reach of children and pets.
Tips from us
- Being a super-smooth product, a thin layer is sufficient for the gliding effect — no need for large amounts.
- If using the same jar for multiple clients, scoop out the product with a clean spatula or applicator each time, not directly with your finger, to avoid cross-contamination.
- The layer is transparent, which helps when working with black and gray or lighter colors, where accuracy matters.
- For aftercare, recommend the client a gentle application, without rubbing, on the tattooed area.
- Check the label with the client if they mention allergies, as the product contains clove extract (eugenol) and vegan honey.
Warning: Product with active ingredients (clove, lavender) — not recommended for people sensitive to eugenol. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Avoid contact with the eye area; if accidental contact occurs, rinse immediately with water. If the product is swallowed, seek medical advice. Discontinue use if any skin reaction occurs. In the studio, for hygiene, use a clean spatula/applicator for each client, do not insert your finger directly into the jar.
Frequently asked questions
How does this product differ from classic lidocaine-based anesthetics?▾
According to the manufacturer's description, unlike lidocaine-based products, 'Biotat Envy' does not cause skin swelling, so it does not hinder the artist's work, and the client feels more at ease during the session. The discomfort-reducing effect comes from natural ingredients (clove oil, vegan honey, lavender), not from a synthetic anesthetic.
What exactly does the product contain?▾
According to the list in the description: medical-grade petroleum jelly, clove extract, glycerol, vegan honey, lavender, and mica. It contains no artificial dyes or fragrances.
Can it be used after the tattoo is done, not just during the session?▾
Yes — the manufacturer recommends using it also as aftercare, by lubricating the tattooed area 2-3 times a day, for better results during the healing period.
Will it clog my needles or wipe off the stencil from the skin during work?▾
No, according to the description: the product is super-smooth, does not clog needles, and does not remove the transferred stencil from the skin, making it suitable as a working glide throughout the session.
How do I use it hygienically if I work with multiple clients from the same jar?▾
As a general hygiene rule in the studio, scoop out the necessary amount with a spatula or a disposable/clean applicator for each client, instead of inserting your finger directly into the container — this avoids cross-contamination of the remaining product for other clients.
Who should avoid this product?▾
People with known sensitivity to eugenol (the compound in clove oil) should avoid the product, according to the manufacturer's warning. Also, at any sign of skin reaction during use, application should be stopped, and contact with eyes should be avoided.
