Complete guide: HUSTLE BUTTER DELUXE 30ml
A tattoo aftercare cream with a 100% vegan formula, petroleum-free, designed to accompany the entire process: skin preparation, the actual work, and post-session care. It is based on shea, mango, and aloe butters, plus coconut, sunflower, and rice bran oils, with green tea extract, vitamin E complex, and arvensis mint essential oil. The compact 30 ml format makes it suitable both for artists who want a residue-free working lubricant and for clients caring for a fresh tattoo at home.
How to use
- Wash your hands thoroughly before any application — especially when working on a fresh tattoo or a client's skin.
- Before the session: apply a thin layer to the area to be tattooed, to prepare and hydrate the skin.
- During tattooing: use the cream as a substitute for Vaseline — a thin layer keeps the skin smooth and pliable, helps the pigment go in cleanly, and does not remove the stencil.
- Refresh the layer as needed during the session, taking the cream hygienically (with a disposable spatula, not directly with the glove used on the client).
- After the session: on clean, dry skin, apply a thin layer 2–3 times a day, according to the manufacturer's instructions, throughout the healing period.
- After healing: you can continue applying it as a daily moisturizer to keep the skin supple and the tattoo colors vibrant.
Tips from us
- Less is more: a thin layer hydrates effectively; a thick layer can suffocate freshly tattooed skin.
- Being a petroleum-free formula, it does not build up on needles or clog machine tubes — still, wipe off excess periodically during work for good visibility.
- For aftercare, apply only on clean skin — gently wash the area first, do not add cream over exudate or pigment residue.
- In the studio, remove the cream from the container only with a disposable tool and cover the container with a protective barrier if it sits on the work station.
- The 30 ml format is easy to carry — practical for clients during the healing period or as a product to recommend at the end of the session.
- Since the texture is based on vegetable butters, keep it away from direct heat to maintain its consistency.
Warning: A fresh tattoo is an open wound: apply the cream only with clean hands or gloves, on clean skin. Do not use the same container between clients without hygienic dispensing (disposable spatula) — inserting fingers or used gloves contaminates the product. If severe redness, intense itching, or other signs of unusual reaction occur, discontinue use and consult a doctor; the product contains natural ingredients (coconut, papaya, mint, etc.) to which some people may be sensitive. The cream supports skin care but does not replace the healing instructions received from your artist.
Frequently asked questions
What does the cream contain and is it suitable for vegans?▾
Yes, the formula is certified vegan and cruelty-free, with no animal-derived ingredients, no petrolatum, parabens, or phthalates. It contains shea, mango, and aloe butters, coconut, sunflower, and rice bran oils, rosemary oleoresin, green tea extract, vitamin E complex, arvensis mint essential oil, and papaya and coconut essences.
Can I use it instead of Vaseline during the session?▾
Yes, that is exactly one of its roles: it was developed as a petrolatum-free substitute for Vaseline. Applied in a thin layer during work, it keeps the skin pliable, helps colors go in cleanly, does not remove the stencil, and does not create buildup that could clog the tubes.
How do I properly care for the new tattoo with this cream?▾
After the area has been cleaned according to the artist's instructions, apply a thin layer on clean, dry skin, 2–3 times a day, as recommended by the manufacturer. Continue throughout the healing period, then you can continue using it as a daily moisturizer to keep the tattoo colors vibrant.
How do I keep the product hygienic if I use it in the studio?▾
Take the cream from the container only with a disposable spatula, never with the glove that touched the client, and place the working portion in a small disposable container (cap). The main container must not reach the contaminated area of the station; if necessary, protect it with barrier film and discard the remaining portion at the end of the session.
Is it also suitable for dry skin or old tattoos?▾
Yes, the manufacturer also recommends it as a daily moisturizer for dry or cracked skin, as well as for refreshing the appearance of older tattoos. Being non-comedogenic, it hydrates without leaving a greasy film or clogging pores.
Is the 30 ml format enough for me?▾
The 30 ml format is designed for personal use — typically for caring for a new tattoo at home or for travel. Applied correctly, in a thin layer, the product is consumed slowly. For intensive studio use as a lubricant over multiple sessions, an artist will empty the small format faster, so it is worth treating as a client or trial product.
