Complete guide: Inktrox Classic process butter 200ml
Inktrox Classic Process Butter 200 ml is the working butter by Kwadron, designed to be used in all stages of tattooing: before, during, and after the procedure. Its base is shea butter, complemented with natural oils (olive, sweet almond, avocado, argan, sesame, grapeseed), which forms a thin, transparent layer on the skin — reducing needle friction and helping to cleanly wipe away excess ink and blood without pulling on the skin. It is intended for both tattoo artists, who use it directly during sessions, and individuals caring for a fresh or healed tattoo at home.
How to use
- If you want to prepare the skin in advance, apply a thin layer to the area to be tattooed about a week before the appointment for hydration.
- Just before starting the session, apply a thin layer to clean skin to create a protective film that reduces needle friction.
- During work, the artist can periodically reapply the butter to the tattooed area, especially after wiping with towels or wipes, to keep the protective layer active.
- When wiping away excess ink and blood, use clean towels or wipes — the butter's consistency makes wiping less aggressive on sensitized skin.
- After the tattoo is finished, apply a thin layer to the healed area with clean hands or gloves as part of the daily aftercare routine.
- Do not insert fingers directly into the jar each time — scoop out a small amount with a clean spatula or gloved hands to avoid contaminating the rest of the product.
- Close the lid tightly after each use to keep the product clean and maintain its consistency.
Tips from us
- Apply in a thin layer — excess butter does not speed anything up, it only unnecessarily softens the skin and hinders the artist's work.
- Test the product on a small area of skin before first full use, especially if you have sensitive or reactive skin.
- For studios with multiple clients, scoop out a separate portion for each person (clean spatula or gloves) instead of putting your hand directly into the shared jar.
- Keep the jar tightly closed, away from heat and direct sunlight, to maintain its quality.
- If using the product before the session, follow the manufacturer's recommendation of applying about a week in advance, then continue with daily aftercare after tattooing.
- Check the ingredient list if you have known allergies to fragrance or essential oils before using it on large areas of skin.
Warning: The product contains fragrance and essential oils (limonene, citral, linalool, geraniol, citronellol) — substances recognized as contact allergens that may cause reactions in people with sensitive skin. Do not apply to skin with open infected wounds or signs of infection (extensive redness, pus, fever) — in such cases, seek medical advice instead of relying on the product. In the studio, hygiene matters as much as the product itself: avoid cross-contamination between clients, always use clean tools or gloves to scoop the butter from the jar, and do not apply it directly with fingers to multiple people's skin.
Frequently asked questions
How do I correctly apply Inktrox Classic for the best results?▾
Apply a thin layer to the skin both before tattooing (optional, about a week before, to prepare the skin) and during the session for protection, as well as after, as part of daily tattoo aftercare. No need for large amounts — a thin layer, reapplied as needed, is sufficient.
How is it different from classic tattoo petroleum jelly?▾
Unlike thick, opaque petroleum jelly, Inktrox Classic forms a transparent layer that does not hinder visibility of the lines being worked. Additionally, the formula does not interfere with pigment implantation into the skin, and wiping away excess ink and blood is described as cleaner and less aggressive on the skin.
How do I keep it hygienic if I use it on multiple clients in the studio?▾
Do not put dirty hands or tools directly into the jar. Scoop out the butter with a clean spatula or gloved hands, ideally into a separate portion for each client, and close the lid tightly after each use. Keep the jar away from heat and direct light.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin or people with allergies?▾
The product base is natural (shea butter, olive, sweet almond, avocado, argan, sesame, and grapeseed oils), but it also contains fragrance and essential oils (limonene, citral, linalool, geraniol, citronellol), known contact allergens. If you have sensitive skin or known allergies to these substances, test on a small area before use on large surfaces.
What is Inktrox Classic made of?▾
The main ingredients are shea butter (Butyrospermum Parkii), olive oil, white wax, sweet almond oil, avocado oil, argan oil, sesame oil, and grapeseed oil, along with fragrance and common cosmetic preservatives/antioxidants. The full ingredient list is displayed on the packaging and in the product description.
How far in advance of the tattoo can I start using it?▾
The manufacturer recommends applying it about a week before the appointment to hydrate and prepare the skin in the area to be tattooed. After that, the product can also be used for daily care of the healed tattoo.
