Complete guide: INK EEZE Green Glide 5 ml
A professional working butter (process butter) delivered in individual 5 ml sachets, designed for tattoo artists who want maximum hygiene at every session. It is applied to the skin during tattooing to help the machine glide smoothly and soothe the working area, but can also be used during the tattoo healing phase. The single-use format makes it especially suitable for conventions, guest spots, and studios with strict hygiene protocols — one sachet per client, no shared jars.
How to use
- Wash and disinfect your hands, prepare the station, and put protective barriers on the equipment, as with any session.
- Tear open a single sachet at the start of the session, for one client only — the contents are single-use.
- After transferring the stencil, apply a thin layer to the working area; the butter melts on contact with the skin and creates a slippery layer.
- Start tattooing: the layer helps the machine glide smoothly, while maintaining stencil visibility.
- Reapply a small amount as needed throughout the session, first wiping excess with a clean tissue to check lines.
- At the end, discard the sachet along with any remaining contents — do not keep it for another client.
- If using it also for healing: clean the tattoo, then apply a very thin layer; do not overload it.
Tips from us
- One sachet per client — it is the key to the single-use format and eliminates the risk of cross-contamination compared to a shared jar.
- Apply a thin layer, not too much: too much ointment reduces air circulation to the skin and does more harm than good.
- Periodically wipe the area with a clean tissue to check the stencil and line clarity while working.
- The small, individual format is ideal for conventions and guest spots — you transport it easily, without carrying a large jar.
- Remember that green means the Green variant (with botanical extracts and lavender fragrance), different from Black Glide — choose according to your preference for formula and scent.
Warning: Single-use product: do not reuse the same sachet between clients, precisely for the hygiene the format provides. Contains lavender fragrance and essential oils — check in advance if a client has very sensitive skin or known allergies. A fresh tattoo is an open wound; keep the entire workflow sterile and, if signs of infection appear during healing (intense redness, discharge, fever), the client should be directed to a doctor — an ointment does not replace medical consultation.
Frequently asked questions
Is it used only during tattooing or also for healing?▾
Both. It is primarily designed as a working butter, applied to the skin during tattooing for machine glide and to soothe the area, but according to the manufacturer, it can also be used during tattoo healing, applied in a thin layer on clean skin.
How long does one 5 ml sachet last?▾
The 5 ml format is sized for a single session on a small to medium tattoo. For large pieces or long sessions, you will need multiple sachets, each used still per client.
Can I use the same sachet on multiple clients?▾
No. That is precisely why the individual format exists: you open it, use the contents for a single client, and discard it. Reusing it would cancel the hygiene advantage and introduce a risk of cross-contamination.
What is the difference compared to Black Glide?▾
The Green variant (green) is the one with botanical extracts and lavender fragrance from the Ink Eeze range, and the green color is the actual visual indicator that sets it apart from Black Glide. The choice between them depends on your preference for formula and scent; if you want exact details about Black's composition, check that product's sheet.
Is it vegan and free from problematic ingredients?▾
Yes, according to the manufacturer, it is vegan, not tested on animals, and contains no animal-derived ingredients, petrolatum, or parabens. It is infused with essential oils and formulated with vitamins A, C, and E plus botanical extracts, and is made in the USA.
Is it suitable for clients with sensitive skin?▾
It contains lavender fragrance and essential oils, so for clients with very reactive skin or known allergies to fragrances/essential oils, caution is warranted. The soothing ingredients and botanical extracts are designed to reduce irritation, but stop application at any unusual reaction.
