Complete guide: Biotat Envy Numbing Tattoo Glide 500g
Biotat Envy Numbing Tattoo Glide 500g is a soothing work gel designed for tattoo artists who want to offer their clients more comfort during the session. It is used directly on the skin, just like a classic petroleum jelly or work butter, but with natural ingredients (clove oil, vegan honey, lavender) that help reduce discomfort, redness, and swelling during the procedure. It does not contain lidocaine, so its soothing mechanism differs from classic anesthetics. The 500g container is designed for studio volume, with enough product for multiple working sessions.
How to use
- Prepare the tattoo area according to the studio's standard hygiene routine (clean, disinfected skin, protective barriers in place).
- Apply a thin layer of Biotat Envy Numbing Tattoo Glide directly to the area to be tattooed, just like a regular petroleum jelly.
- Use the product as a work gel throughout the session — it helps the needle glide more smoothly over the skin, without clogging needles or wiping off the transferred stencil.
- Reapply a thin layer whenever you feel the skin drying out or the needle glide decreasing.
- After the tattoo is finished, the product can also be used as aftercare: apply a thin layer to the tattooed area 2-3 times a day.
- Close the container tightly after each use and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
- If working with a client who has sensitive skin, first do a patch test on a small area, especially if there is known sensitivity to eugenol (clove oil).
Tips from us
- The 500g container is suitable for studio use, with multiple clients/sessions, not for a single occasional tattoo.
- Check with the client before application whether they have known allergies or sensitivities to clove oil (eugenol) or honey.
- Apply a thin layer, not a thick one — the product is formulated not to hinder line or stencil visibility, but excess product can still get in the way of the working area.
- Do not treat the soothing effect as a strong anesthetic like lidocaine — use it as a comfort aid, not as a solution for intense pain.
- For aftercare, use it consistently (2-3 applications per day) while the skin is healing, along with the rest of the care instructions given by the artist.
- Keep the container closed, in a cool place, away from direct light and out of reach of children or animals.
Warning: Keep the product away from children and pets. Avoid contact with eyes — if this happens, rinse immediately with water. If the product is swallowed, seek medical advice. Discontinue use if any skin reaction occurs. Do not use if you are sensitive to eugenol (the component in clove oil). As with any product used directly on a client's skin, follow standard studio hygiene: clean hands/instruments, protective barriers, and application with disposable tools where possible, to avoid cross-contamination between clients.
