Complete guide: HUSTLE BUTTER DELUXE 150g
A professional tattoo aftercare cream with a 100% vegan, petroleum-free formula, used both by artists as a lubricant during sessions and by clients during the post-tattoo period and daily hydration routine. The formula combines shea butter, mango butter, and aloe with coconut oil, sunflower oil, and rice bran oil, plus green tea extract, vitamin E complex, and arvensis mint essential oil. The 150 ml format is designed for studios and artists who work constantly, but also for clients who want a long-term care product.
How to use
- Before the session: apply a thin layer to the clean skin of the work area for preparation and hydration.
- During tattooing: use the cream as a Vaseline replacement — a thin layer keeps the skin smooth and pliable, helps pigment go in cleanly, and does not wipe off the stencil.
- Always remove the cream from the jar with a disposable spatula and portion it into a separate small container for the session — never with the glove you are using on the client.
- Reapply during the session after wiping, again in a thin layer, just enough to keep the skin workable.
- After the session (aftercare): apply to clean, dry skin in a thin layer, 2-3 times a day, for the entire healing duration.
- After healing: can continue to be used as a daily moisturizer to keep tattoo colors vibrant and for dry or cracked skin.
Tips from us
- Less is more: a thin layer hydrates enough; a thick layer suffocates freshly tattooed skin and hinders healing.
- Being a petroleum-free formula, it does not build up on needles or clog machine tubes — a real advantage when working with white, yellow, and highlights, where classic Vaseline gets in the way.
- In the studio, dedicate a small portioned container per client and discard any unused remainder at the end — the main jar must never come into contact with the work area.
- Recommend it to clients also as a maintenance product after healing: consistent hydration helps the tattoo look good long-term.
- Keep the cream tightly sealed, away from heat and direct sunlight, to maintain its consistency and properties.
- If a client has very sensitive skin or known allergies to natural ingredients (e.g., coconut, mango, or mint), recommend a patch test on a small area of skin before using it on the fresh tattoo.
Warning: Studio hygiene: never dip your hand or used glove directly into the jar — use disposable spatulas and portioned containers per client, otherwise you contaminate the entire cream. Apply only to clean skin with clean hands. A fresh tattoo is an open wound: if intense redness, unusual irritation, or signs of infection appear, stop application and consult a doctor or your artist — the cream is a care product, not a medical treatment.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use the cream during the session, instead of Vaseline?▾
Yes, that's exactly what it was developed for: as a petroleum-free replacement for Vaseline. Applied in a thin layer to the work area, it keeps the skin smooth and pliable, helps colors go in easier and cleaner, does not wipe off the stencil, and does not create buildup that clogs machine tubes. Many artists prefer it especially for white and yellow passages, where Vaseline residues hinder visibility and pigment deposition.
How do I use it correctly for healing a new tattoo?▾
After the tattoo has been cleaned according to the artist's instructions, apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin 2-3 times a day throughout the healing period. Do not apply excessively — the skin needs to breathe. The formula deeply hydrates without leaving a greasy film or clogging pores, and many clients continue using it even after healing as a daily maintenance cream.
How do I take the cream out of the jar without contaminating it, if I work in a studio?▾
Always use a disposable spatula and transfer the needed amount into a separate small container dedicated to that client before starting work. Any leftover in the portioned container at the end of the session is discarded. Never dip the glove you used on the client into the main jar — any direct contact turns the entire jar into a source of cross-contamination.
Is the cream vegan? Does it contain petroleum or parabens?▾
Yes, it is certified vegan and cruelty-free, with no animal-derived ingredients and no animal testing. The formula contains no petroleum, parabens, or phthalates. The ingredients are natural: shea butter, mango butter, aloe, coconut oil, sunflower oil, rice bran oil, rosemary oleoresin, green tea extract, vitamin E complex, and arvensis mint essential oil, with papaya and coconut essences.
Does it wipe off the stencil if I apply it during work?▾
No — unlike some petroleum-based products, this cream does not remove the stencil from the skin. You can lubricate the work area throughout the session without worrying about losing your guide lines. Still, apply in a thin layer and wipe off excess in a controlled manner, as with any glide product.
Who is the 150 ml format for — the artist or the end client?▾
For both, but for different reasons. For artists, 150 ml offers extended studio autonomy at a good quantity-to-price ratio, especially if you also use the cream as a glide during sessions. For the end client, it is a generous format that easily covers the healing period of a tattoo and leaves enough for daily maintenance afterward — including as a regular moisturizer for dry skin.
