Complete guide: Biotat Numbing Tattoo Green Soap Concentrated 500ml
Biotat Numbing Tattoo Green Soap Concentrate 500 ml is a 100% natural green soap, handmade in the UK, used for cleaning the skin during and after a tattoo session. It contains clove oil (Syzygium Aromaticum), honey, and lavender — ingredients that help mildly numb the tattooed area and reduce inflammation, without containing lidocaine. Being the concentrated version, it is designed for artists who want to control their own dilution, with much more economical consumption than ready-to-use versions. The product is manufactured according to ISO 9001 and ISO 22716 standards and is CPNP registered in the EU.
How to use
- Shake the bottle well before each use to homogenize the natural ingredients.
- Dilute the concentrate with distilled or purified water, following the manufacturer's recommended ratio (indicatively around 1:10 — one part concentrate to ten parts water); some artists adjust the ratio between 1:7–1:8 for more intensive cleaning or towards 1:12 for sensitive skin.
- Never apply the undiluted concentrate directly to the skin — it is intended exclusively for preparing the working solution.
- Prepare only the amount needed for approximately 2-4 weeks to maintain the formula's freshness.
- Pour the diluted solution into clean, tightly sealed containers and label them with the preparation date.
- Use the diluted solution during the tattoo session to clean excess ink and keep the working area clean.
- Store both the concentrate and the diluted solution at room temperature, away from direct light and contamination.
- Integrate the product into the general protocol for skin preparation and hygiene of the working area in the studio.
Tips from us
- Dilute exclusively with distilled or purified water, not tap water — chlorine, minerals, and impurities from tap water can affect the formula's effectiveness and may irritate the client's skin.
- Label each container of diluted solution with the preparation date: effectiveness lasts approximately 4-6 weeks if the container is clean and tightly sealed.
- Test the dilution ratio that works best for your working style within the range indicated by the manufacturer, rather than always using the same concentration for all clients.
- For a high-volume studio, calculate the approximate consumption per session to estimate how long a bottle will last and avoid running out of solution in the middle of a workday.
- Store the concentrate bottle away from excessive heat and direct light to protect the natural ingredients.
Warning: The product is applied to freshly tattooed skin, which is already clean; therefore, tightly sealed and contamination-free containers for dilution are mandatory. Although it does not contain lidocaine, the formula contains natural eugenol (from clove oil), which may cause sensitivity or allergic reaction in some individuals — we recommend a patch test on a small area of skin before first use on a new client. The concentrate must not be applied undiluted to the skin. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes, and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the Concentrate and Ready to Use versions?▾
The concentrate must be diluted with water before use, while Ready to Use is pre-mixed. The advantage of the concentrate is control over the final concentration, economy (a 500 ml bottle of concentrate can produce up to 5 liters of ready-to-use solution), and reduced storage space. It is especially suitable for experienced artists who know what concentration they prefer.
What dilution ratio should I use?▾
The manufacturer indicates a standard ratio of approximately 1:10 (one part concentrate to ten parts distilled water), but many artists adjust between 1:7-1:8 for more intensive cleaning or towards 1:12 for sensitive skin. Always check the instructions on the label of the bottle you have.
What water should I use to dilute the product?▾
With distilled or purified water. Tap water may contain chlorine, minerals, and other impurities that affect the formula's effectiveness or may irritate the client's skin.
How long does the diluted solution last after preparation?▾
Approximately 4-6 weeks, if stored in clean, tightly sealed containers at room temperature. We recommend preparing only the amount needed for 2-4 weeks and labeling the containers with the preparation date for clear stock tracking.
Does it contain lidocaine or other synthetic anesthetics?▾
No. The product is 100% free of lidocaine, chlorhexidine, or other synthetic chemicals. The mild numbing effect comes from natural eugenol present in clove oil, honey, and lavender.
How long does a 500 ml bottle last in a studio?▾
It depends on the workload: a 500 ml bottle of concentrate produces up to 5 liters of diluted solution, and a tattoo session consumes on average 20-50 ml of diluted solution. For a studio with multiple artists working 5 days a week, one bottle can cover several months of activity.

Biotat Numbing Tattoo Green Soap Concentrated 500ml is the concentrated version of Biotat's numbing green soap, designed for artists who prefer to control their own dilution. The concentrated formula contains natural eugenol extracted from cloves — the plant-based anaesthetic and antibacterial agent that characterises the Biotat Numbing range. The main advantage of the concentrated version is versatility: it can be diluted to the desired concentration based on artist preference and procedure type. Standard dilution is approximately 1:10 with distilled water, but many artists adjust the ratio to achieve optimal concentration. A 500ml concentrated container produces up to 5 litres of ready-to-use green soap, offering exceptional value compared to pre-diluted variants. Manufactured in the United Kingdom under laboratory conditions to ISO9001 and ISO22716 standards, CPNP registered in the EU. The 100% vegan, cruelty-free formula is free from chlorhexidine, lidocaine, and synthetic chemicals. Integrates into the complete Biotat protocol for skin preparation and work area cleaning.
Frequently Asked Questions What is the recommended dilution ratio? The standard dilution ratio is approximately 1:10 — one part concentrate to 10 parts distilled water. This concentration is optimal for effective cleaning during tattoo sessions. Some artists prefer a higher concentration (1:7 or 1:8) for more intensive cleaning, while others prefer greater dilution (1:12) for sensitive skin. Why choose concentrated instead of Ready to Use? The concentrated version offers three major advantages: concentration control, superior economy, and less storage space. A 500ml concentrated container produces up to 5 litres of soap, equivalent to five 1000ml Ready to Use containers. Experienced artists who know exactly the optimal concentration for their work style prefer the concentrated version. Can I use tap water for dilution? Distilled or purified water is recommended for diluting Biotat Green Soap Concentrate. Tap water may contain chlorine, minerals, and impurities that could affect formula efficacy or irritate client skin. Distilled water ensures a pure and consistent dilution, maintaining all anaesthetic and antibacterial properties of eugenol. How long does the diluted soap last after preparation? The diluted soap maintains its efficacy for approximately 4-6 weeks after preparation, if stored in clean, tightly closed containers at room temperature. We recommend preparing quantities needed for 2-4 weeks to ensure maximum freshness. Label containers with the preparation date for efficient stock management. Is it as effective as the Ready to Use version? Yes, when correctly diluted to the recommended ratio, efficacy is identical to the Ready to Use version. In fact, the concentrated version offers the flexibility to adjust concentration — higher for intensive cleaning or lower for sensitive skin. Experienced artists appreciate this additional control over the final product. How do I calculate the quantity needed for my studio? A 500ml concentrated container produces approximately 5 litres of diluted soap. On average, a tattoo session consumes 20-50ml of diluted soap. So 5 litres covers approximately 100-250 sessions. For a studio with 3 artists tattooing 5 days per week, a 500ml concentrated container can last approximately 2-3 months. Does the concentrate have a stronger numbing effect than Ready to Use? No, the concentrate should not be used undiluted — it would be too concentrated and could irritate the skin. When correctly diluted at the 1:10 ratio, the anaesthetic effect is equivalent to the Ready to Use version. Eugenol works at optimal concentrations, and overdosing does not increase efficacy but only the risk of irritation. Always follow the recommended dilution ratio. What type of container should I use for the diluted soap? We recommend food-grade plastic containers or professional spray bottles. 250-500ml spray bottles are the most practical for studio use, allowing direct application on skin or paper towels. Avoid metal containers that could react with the formula. Wash and disinfect containers before each reuse. Can I use the concentrate for equipment cleaning? Biotat Green Soap Concentrate is formulated for skin cleaning during tattoo procedures, not for equipment. For equipment cleaning and disinfection, use specific products approved for medical surface disinfection. The concentrate can be used for cleaning the work area (table, arm rest) after the session but does not replace a professional disinfectant. Does it have the necessary certifications for use in Romania? Yes, Biotat Green Soap Concentrate is CPNP registered in the European Union and complies with Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 on cosmetic products. Manufactured in the UK to ISO9001 and ISO22716 standards, the product is legal and compliant for professional use in Romania and all EU member states. The vegan, cruelty-free formula is certified and verifiable.
